Title: Not Recommended
Review: I am Brazilian and I do not recommend this DVD. It does not reflect the beauty of the music of Antonio Carlos Jobim.If you want to buy it, check it out first at a local DVD rental service or library. Some of those DVD of Brazilian Music are available for renting.The DVD has low quality. There are lots of improvisation on the music theme and the lyrics in english are different from the lyrics in portuguese. I guess, it has to do with the way that the words sound, rather then the accuracy of translation. The overall performance for a JAZZ Festival is good for someone who really likes Jazz, I guess. The person who introduce the singer has empty comments such as "wonderful singer... beautiful bla bla bla". He does not give you any information about the interpreter of the Jobin's music or any info about the music itself, very superficial. A pity. I donated my DVD to the local library in the same day I got It.
