For over three decades, Carlos Barbosa-Lima has been regarded as one of the most creative acoustic guitarists on the world stage. Since his U.S. debut in 1967, he has enjoyed a global concert career. This new Khaeon release is his second on the label. Highlights include "Chega de Saudade" by A.C. Jobim, with its irresistible bossa nova groove, plus the gently swinging "Frenesi," and a spectacular solo guitar version of the ever popular, anthemic "Don't Cry for Me Argentina" from the musical/movie "Evita". Featured guests include Gustavo Colina, virtuoso of the Venezuelan cuatro (a small four-string guitar); John Benitez, the well-known Latin jazz bassist and Khaeon artist; and Edgardo Aponte, a leading percussionist from Puerto Rico.
