Antônio Carlos Jobim
Antônio Carlos Brasileiro de Almeida Jobim (Rio de Janeiro, January 25, 1927 – New York, December 8, 1994), better known by his stage name Tom Jobim, was a composer, pianist, guitarist, arranger, Brazilian flutist and singer. Considered one of the great exponents of Brazilian music, Jobim internationalized bossa nova and, with the help of important American artists, fused it with jazz in the 1960s to create a new, popular sound. For this reason, he is sometimes known as the "father of bossa nova".
