Amalia Rodrigues - Encontro Amalia & Don Byas

In an extraordinary afternoon in 1973, an album was recorded almost in one take, barely rehearsed, and it was named � Encontro � .This beautiful encounter between two master improvisers, one from Fado and one from Jazz, envisioned by Luiz Villas-Boas, was a notable fusion of the two genres. And if back then some thought Don Byas' saxophone was an intruder in Am lia's music, it became undeniable that it inspired one of the most virtuous moments in Am lia's music.
