Joao Gilberto Amoroso

Amoroso, released in 1977, is an album that uses an orchestral arrangement to produce the Brazilian sound of bossa nova. The album features João Gilberto on vocals and guitar, backed by a large, but not overpowering, arrangement. The latter four songs on the album were written and composed by fellow bossa nova legend Antônio Carlos Jobim and adapted by Gilberto.
