Welcome to The Sounds of Brazil!
Here’s a case of “life’s little coincidences”.
Six years… and a day. That’s how much time separates two of Brazil’s greatest piano masters. And that’s about all that separates them.
Both were born and raised in Rio de Janeiro. Both are Bossa Nova pioneers and their common history even shares a hit song.
That song is part of the playlist this week as we celebrate consecutive birthdays for pianists Antonio Adolfo and Sergio Mendes.
And we’ll get a head start on Carnaval as we count down the days until the celebration begins on February 17th this year.
I’ll have a long set of smooth sambas for you to enjoy during our second hour. Carnaval is part of the warmth of Brazil. too.
A spin of the compass is all it takes to get started, with the arrow pointing the way to true south, the tropics, and The Sounds of Brazil!
Happy listening,
Scott Adams
Our recipe for Warmed Brazilian Spiced Cider has a secret optional ingredient that makes my original take on Brazil’s traditional Quintao, all that much more enjoyable on a cold winter’s day… or night! Here’s the easy-to-make recipe, along with the story behind this one-of-a-kind sipper, plus a perfectly-paired song, too! Of course.
