Jobim himself described Adnet’s voice as “deep, rich and mysterious” not just because of the alliteration. Adnet’s beautiful instrument gets the perfect setting from these musicians and arrangements: not only is the estimable Trio da Paz on this recording (Romero Lubambo, Nilson Matta, Duduka Da Fonseca), but there are wonderful performances from trombonist Jay Ashby, flugellers Claudio Roditi and Randy Brecker, and pianist Hugo Fattoruso, whose spare, lyrical style evokes The Man himself. Songs I Learned From Jobim contains a full range of moods, fine musicianship and excellent material. It’s also a must-hear for Jobim completists, since it offers such unexpected and delightful insights into his musical self.
