Coming after \u003cem\u003eJazz Samba\u003c\/em\u003e and before \u003cem\u003eJazz Samba Encore!\u003c\/em\u003e and \u003cem\u003eGetz\/Gilberto\u003c\/em\u003e, it forms part of the Verve run that helped bring bossa nova to North American audiences. Produced by Creed Taylor, with arrangements and conducting by Gary McFarland, the album pairs Getz's characteristically lyrical tenor with brass-and-woodwind charts that keep the music airy rather than overblown.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRecorded in August 1962 at Columbia's 30th Street Studio in New York, the session brings in first-rate players including Jim Hall, George Duvivier, Mel Lewis, Doc Severinsen, Tommy Williams and Brazilian percussionists José Paulo and Luiz Parga. That combination matters: the record doesn't just borrow repertoire, it balances Brazilian rhythm with American big-band writing in a way that gives tunes like “Manhã de Carnaval,” “Chega de Saudade” and “Samba de Uma Nota Só” both sweep and ease. Getz stays at the center throughout, floating over the ensemble with the relaxed tone that made him such a persuasive guide to this music.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMore than a sidestep, \u003cem\u003eBig Band Bossa Nova\u003c\/em\u003e shows how quickly Getz and Verve developed the possibilities opened by his earlier Brazilian projects. If \u003cem\u003eJazz Samba\u003c\/em\u003e introduced a new mood, this album scales it up without losing its poise, making it a particularly appealing chapter in his early-60s catalogue.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVerve Acoustic Sounds Series reissue\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMastered by Matthew Lutthans at The Mastering Lab from the original analog master tape\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAll-analog remaster\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e180-gram LP\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePressed at Quality Record Pressings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStereo\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDeluxe gatefold jacket\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStoughton tip-on jacket\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n    \n\n    \u003c!-- Genres --\u003e\n    \n      \u003cp\u003eGenre: \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/jazz-music-vinyl-records\"\u003eJazz\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \n\n    \n  \u003c\/li\u003e\n\n  \u003c!-- Release tab content --\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n    \u003cdiv\u003e\n        \n        \n        \n          \n          \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFormat: \u003c\/strong\u003e LP\u003c\/div\u003e\n          \n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUnits: \u003c\/strong\u003e 1\u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n        \n        \n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGenre: \u003c\/strong\u003e\n          \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/jazz-music-vinyl-records\"\u003eJazz\u003c\/a\u003e\n        \u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n        \n    \u003c\/div\u003e\n  \u003c\/li\u003e\n\n  \u003c!-- Tracklist tab content --\u003e\n  \n  \u003cli\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cb\u003eSide A                       \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e1.
