CONCERTO “PORTRAITS IN SONGS” al TRUMPETS di Montclair, NJ

The eMPathia jazz duo debuted this unique version of Antonio Carlos Jobim’s classic INSENSATEZ shortly before recording it for their new CD “COOL ROMANTICS”. This rendition, captured at New Jersey`s legendary jazz club Trumpets, highlights the urgency and angst of Vinicius De Moraes` poetic lyric culminating in a resigned and rich intertwining dialogue around a seductive bossa nova beat.
“Oh what an insensitive thing you did, my careless heart. You made your lover cry from pain for such a delicate love. Why were you so weak and soulless? Oh my heart that never loved doesn’t deserve to be loved….. Go, my heart, ask forgiveness, a passionate forgiveness. Go, because he who never asks forgiveness, will never be forgiven.”
