It's a very elegant full-length bossa album, featuring António Carlos Jobim numbers and Yoshiko Kishino's originals. This product is eligible for the Bossa Nova Campaign. ~ cdjapan.co.jp.
A collection of bossa nova jazz piano with strings. "Água De Beber" and other bossa nova masterpieces, as well as Kishino's original songs, are woven together with her characteristic elegant and clear touch. Not only is it lyrical, but it is also powerful at times, allowing you to fully enjoy the essence of jazz. ~ doorzo.com. [Translated From Japanese]
