Like it s-m-o-o-t-h? Then you'll go into raptures over this collaboration between the current queen of Bossa Nova Paula Morelenbaum and the septuagenarian jazz pianist Joao Donato. As Jobim's resident vocalist for many years, Morelbaum participated in the creation of Brazilian bossa; Donato, par contre, made his career in the US. Together, they make some magical (and contemporary) music.
