Copacabana (Sarah Vaughan Album)
''Copacabana'' is a 1979 album by Sarah Vaughan. It was Vaughan's second album of bossa nova following '' I Love Brazil!''; her third album of Brazilian music, '' Brazilian Romance'' followed in 1987. Reception Although the contemporaneous review by ''Los Angeles Times'' jazz critic Leonard Feather was somewhat mixed, he did not fault the featured artist: ''That this set does not reach the consistent heights of its predecessor, "I Love Brazil," cannot be blamed on Vaughan. The difference lies in the accompaniment, which this time is spotty. Who needs that unison choir background on "Smiling Hour"? Vaughan is not Mitch Miller. The simplistic percussion on "Bonita" could be a metronome. Still, Hélio Delmiro's guitar, an unidentified cello and the incomparable Vaughan contralto applied to "Dindi," "Gentle Rain" and Jobim's "Double Rainbow" (English lyrics by Gene Lees) elevate this to 3½ stars. ''The Penguin Guide to Jazz Recordings'' awarded the album a maximum four-star rating ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Originality is the aspect of created or invented works that distinguish them from reproductions, clones, forgeries, or substantially derivative works. The modern idea of originality is according to some scholars tied to Romanticism, by a notion that is often called romantic originality.Smith (1924)Waterhouse (1926)Macfarlane (2007) The validity of "originality" as an operational concept has been questioned. For example, there is no clear boundary between "derivative" and "inspired by" or "in the tradition of." The concept of originality is both culturally and historically contingent. For example, unattributed reiteration of a published text in one culture might be considered plagiarism but in another culture might be regarded as a convention of veneration. At the time of Shakespeare, it was more common to appreciate the similarity with an admired classical work, and Shakespeare himself avoided "unnecessary invention".Royal Shakespeare Company (2007) ''The RSC Shakespeare - Wil ...
