The Shadow Of Your Smile

Astrud Gilberto

Orchestral backdrops complement the minimalist vocal delivery throughout the album. It captures the height of the bossa nova craze with a focus on personal, cinematic themes.

Recorded in the mid-sixties, the sessions highlight a breezy, sophisticated aesthetic. The record works as a crossover between jazz and pop, driven by a delicate and understated style.
