The second volume of guitarist Mario Adnet's tribute to the music of the
legendary Antonio Carlos Jobim continues to explore the jazz soul of
Brazilian music with the same knack for innovative arrangement that
resulted in such accolades for his 2007 release as ''...this CD has all
the elements of a winner. Adnet captures in it the true spirit of the
Bossa Nova movement.'' (Latin Jazz Network). Throughout the CD's
thirteen selections, Adnet again emphasizes brass arrangements, often
including the contributions of the renowned Brazilian trombone player
Vittor Santos, as well as a variety of trumpeters, flutists, tenor, alto
and baritone saxophonists, and even French horn players to enhance the
work of a central jazz ensemble. It was while recording More Jobim Jazz that Adnet fully grasped the profound influence that Gerry Mulligan's 1953 recording, Tentet and Quartet, also had on Jobim - an influence which is also clearly evident on this brilliant homage.
