Azymuth & Marcos Valle
Brazil
All-time greats and occasional collaborators since they burst onto Rio’s bossa nova and jazz scene in the 1960s and ‘70s, jazz-funk trio Azymuth and singer-songwriter/record producer Marcos Valle join forces one more time to show us what musica popular Brasileira is all about. Their enduring influence on the funk, soul, samba, jazz and even rock of the Americas, and indeed the world, cannot be underestimated; their elegant music continues to be an inspiration for artists everywhere.
