Some time ago, my New Yorker cousin came to visit Brazil and I wanted to make sure she was leaving with her iPod full of brazilian specialities. A few weeks later we exchanged this conversation by e-mail.
- “Im listening to music you sent me while writing (I really like Joyce!…although right now im listening to Paulo Bellinati)” — she said
- “Joyce is a godess. I worship her every time I need a good something-between-samba-and-bossa-nova in my ears.”— in my reply
Joyce’s voice singing Bossa-Nova is probably what gets closer to the true spirit of Rio de Janeiro city.
Enough talking. This is some of her works. While listening, close your eyes and imagine a calm sunday walk in Ipanema beach.
