3/3. Trumpeter and broadcaster Guy Barker pays tribute to pioneering composer, arranger and musician Antonio Carlos
Jobim (1927-94), who has been referred to as "the Gershwin of Brazil" and was instrumental in creating the bossa nova sound. He and poet Vinicius de Moraes were behind the genre's two most popular hits - Desafinado (Stan Getz and Charlie Byrd ) and The
Girl from Ipanema (Stan Getz and Astrud Gilberto ). This final edition explores Jobim's legacy, with a look at the many interpretations of his work, and features a rare and candid interview with his son Paulo.
