Sivuca = Genius !! In the late 1960's, Sivuca was on tour, playing accompanist guitar with singer Harry Belafonte. After finishing a concert in Portland, Oregon, he found his way to the after hours jazz jam session at a small coffee house on the other side of town, where all the hip jazz players hung out after their night gigs ended. When he walked in carrying an accordion case, we all had to contain ourselves from laughing. With his long flowing white hair and beard, he looked like some kind of Swedish Santa Claus fresh from the polka dance. As we
hung out in the kitchen sipping coffee, Sivuca opened up his accordion case and took out a marijuana joint the size of foot-long hot dog. He lit the monster, and began to puff away, as the rest of us, along with the patrons in the place, inhaled the second-hand smoke. It was like central air conditioning for stoners...everyone enjoyed the benefits as the smoke permeated our collective wonder.
He soon put out the ganja cigar and strapped on his accordion, walking up to the stage as he joined the drummer, bassist and piano player. Sivuca called the tune.."Wave" by Antonio Carlos Jobim, a Brazilian standard which we all knew. As he started the tune in a very bright and brisk tempo, our mouths fell open and our eyes bugged out in disbelief about what was unfolding. This seemingly folksy little polka-playing Swedish Santa Claus turned into a super-charged Brazilian skyrocket, as the roof came off the place and we flew on a magic carpet ride through the stratosphere into fantasies of jazz, only dreamed of by the gods on Mount Olympus.
Sivuca scat-sang perfect unisons as he fired the notes in tandem on his accordion. The sheer electricity of his sound was overwhelming. It was the most incredible and thrilling sound any of us had ever heard from voice and accordion in the jazz idiom. A virtuoso musician doubling his improvisation with perfect high energy scating. People were literally lifted out of their seats, dancing and swaying to the magic of this phenomenal music. Instant Carnival, a la Rio De Janeiro !
Marijuana or not, the music and the energy Sivuca brought to us that night was so captivating, so spell-binding, so thrilling, that when we all finally parted company, we were left wanting so much more of his soulful ambrosia. To this day, even decades later, I cannot recall any musical experience that was so impressive, so electrifying and so memorable. I was lucky to be accompanying him on piano that night.
A once-in-a-lifetime moment.
what's the source of this info?
@@FelipeKariri If you read what I wrote you will notice that I was there that night, and I played piano.
Thank you, what a great story. Sivuca is one of a kind.
Se tocou piano com Sivuca teve o privilégio de tocar com um monstro musical. Cada frase musical dele pode inspirar outras músicas.
Amazing!!!
i met Sivuca once. His handshake was like an iron vise. Amazing musician
Sometimes he blends his voice so well when he's doubling the accordion it almost sounds like a synthesizer especially when he's playing behind Putte, the clarinet player...its wonderful.
Anos ouvindo Sivuca e nunca me canso. Como um Nordestino sertanejo raiz comecei ouvir Sivuca na minha adolescência.
In most styles you can say its been done before. In this case its not been done before but even more. Its not going to be done again. Accordion and simultaneous scat singing. Note for note. Sivuca. Great.
Master musician and genius. No one like him.
I like him! :P

anyone know the name of first track?
I don't know, but even if you do know the name you'll not be able to find it anywhere else than here.
The name of the first track is ceo e mar / céu e mar. There is a nice version from Leilaa Pinheiro & Nelson Faria, and there is one other recording of Sivuca playinig/singing the song:
