I concentrate on you (Tom Jobim e Frank Sinatra)


Frank Sinatra & Antonio Carlos Jobim Live 

I Concentrate On You (1967)

Frank Sinatra accompanied by Antonio Carlos Jobim on guitar sings "I Concentrate On You" which was written in 1940 by Cole Porter.

Bossa Nova is a style of Brazilian music popularized by Antonio Carlos Jobim, Vinicius de Moraes and João Gilberto. Bossa Nova acquired a large following, initially by young musicians and college students. Although the Bossa Nova movement only lasted six years (1958-1963), it contributed a number of songs to the standard jazz repertoire.

The musical style evolved from Samba but is more complex harmonically and less percussive. Additionally, Bossa Nova emerged primarily from the upscale beachside neighborhoods of Rio De Janeiro vs. Samba's origins in favelas (shanty towns) of Rio.
