Minas - Tribute to Astrud Gilberto
Minas pays homage to Astrud Gilberto, who passed away on June 5, 2023, in appreciation for her influence, inspiration, and service to Brazilian music.
Astrud Gilberto, immortalized on the classic recording of The Girl From Ipanema, passed away in Philadelphia on June 5, 2023. Astrudʼs whispery voice and unique approach to singing played a significant role in popularizing Bossa Nova worldwide, with “The Girl from Ipanema” earning a Grammy for Record of the Year, and a nomination for Best Vocal Performance by a Female in 1964. The edited single of "The Girl from Ipanema”, from the album Getz/Gilberto, sold over one million copies and was awarded a gold disc. It became one of the most covered songs in the history of pop music.
On November 4, Minas, featuring singer/pianist Patricia King Haddad, and partner singer/guitarist Orlando Haddad, along with band members
Andrew Neu (sax/flute), Tom Cohen (drums), and Brendan McGeehan (bass), will bring back the sound and songs made famous by Astrud Gilberto.
