7752
''7752'' is the third album by Italian jazz vocalist Chiara Civello. The title gives the distance in kilometers from New York City to Rio de Janeiro, the two cities that inspired the album. Background While visiting her friend, Daniel Jobim, in Rio in February 2008, Civello was taken to a party where artists and musicians of all kinds get together. The guitar went around and everyone sang a song. As Civello shared, listened and learned, a new phase of her artistic path began. Ana Carolina, a Brazilian MPB star, is one of the main collaborators of ''7752''. Not only did she co-write five of the songs with Civello, but she also played acoustic guitar on most of them. Written between Rio, New York, and Rome, ''7752'' includes ten musical moments of which eight were recorded in New York City (and produced by the eclectic producer Andres Levin), while four were recorded in Rio and produced by Civello.
