This is a note-for-note transcription of all the instruments, apart from the string section, on this gorgeous (and my favourite) version of “Corcovado”. This version, recorded a decade after the famous Getz–Gilberto version, shows how Jobim kept developing his material: The orchestral arrangement (flutes + strings) is a beautiful update of the arrangement on the first recording of the song, for João Gilberto’s 1960 album “O Amor, o Sorriso e a Flor”. In addition, Jobim added a new outro, and a shiny new modulated C section that seamlessly weaves a Jazz solo into this Bossa ballad. Enjoy!
