Welcome to The Sounds of Brazil!

Here’s a case of “life’s little coincidences”.

Six years… and a day. That’s how much time separates two of Brazil’s greatest piano masters. And that’s about all that separates them.

Both were born and raised in Rio de Janeiro. Both are Bossa Nova pioneers and their common history even shares a hit song.

That song is part of the playlist this week as we celebrate consecutive birthdays for pianists Antonio Adolfo and Sergio Mendes.

And we’ll get a head start on Carnaval as we count down the days until the celebration begins on March 1st this year.

I’ll have a long set of smooth sambas for you to enjoy during our second hour. Carnaval is part of the warmth of Brazil. too.

A spin of the compass is all it takes to get started, with the arrow pointing the way to true south, the tropics and The Sounds of Brazil!

Happy Listening,

Scott Adams
