Antônio Carlos Jobim

Antônio Carlos Brasileiro de Almeida Jobim (tõʒoˈbĩ; January 25, 1927 – December 08, 1994), also known as Tom Jobim, was a Brazilian singer, songwriter, composer, arranger, and pianist. Considered one of the greatest Brazilian musicians, Jobim is credited with helping create and internationalize the bossa nova style. Furthermore, he merged bossa nova with jazz in the 1960s in his collaborations with notable American artists, creating a very popular fusion. As such, Jobim is sometimes referred to as the "father of bossa nova"^[1], and his music has been covered by many musicians both in Brazil and abroad; the song "Garota de Ipanema" ("The Girl From Ipanema") has over 240 recordings by different artists^[2].

Jobim's 1964 album Getz/Gilberto was the first jazz album to win the Grammy Award for Album of the Year. It also won awards for Best Instrumental Jazz Album, Individual or Group and Best Engineered Album, Non-Classical. The album's lone single, "Garota de Ipanema", also won Record of the Year. In 1968, Jobim's collaboration with Frank Sinatra, Frances Albert Sinatra & Antônio Carlos Jobim (1967), was nominated for Album of the Year.
