Can you tell me what the piece (and composer) is that he quotes in O Boto? By the way, if any reader is confused by the term "quarter" in the comment from baixogavea, it should read "fourth" - a translation glitch, I guess.Peter Spitzerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09732697738104648204noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5089926376300913992.post-33454700655306042372021-01-26T05:47:39.489-08:002021-01-26T05:47:39.489-08:00Just to add a few words, Jobim is well known for q...Just to add a few words, Jobim is well known for quoting the composers he loved. One Note Samba/Samba de uma Nota Só is based o the intro of Night and Day by Cole Porter. The major difference is that Cole Porter moves up and down a second and Jobim a quarter. How Insesitive/Insensatez is based on Chopin's Etude 4. In Chansong he quotes An American in Paris and makes a joke about it in the lyrics for the quote "It's been a long, a very long time, since a Brazilian has been in Paris com você". In Porpoise/Boto he quoted music and lyrics and gave the author credits. Tide quotes Amazonas by João Donato. And so on...baixogaveahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12975464620587563082noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5089926376300913992.post-9275432976843654952018-07-25T07:51:02.094-07:002018-07-25T07:51:02.094-07:00Beautiful comment Professor.
