A Bossa Nova de Roberto Menescal e Seu Conjunto - Roberto Menescal
Album
Composer and guitarist Roberto Menescal was one of bossa nova's key architects, penning sun-drenched coastal anthems like O Barquinho and Você. On this landmark instrumental set released on the legendary Elenco label, Menescal's lyrical nylon-string guitar leads an agile septet featuring flute, vibraphone and supple percussion, capturing the breezy optimism and harmonic sophistication of 1960s Rio.
