Here are our backing tracks for the Italian bossa nova - “Estate”  - which apparently means ‘summer’, and not 'summertime' as some fools (like me) would believe). Written by Bruno Martino it became a jazz standard after being recorded by  Brazilian bossa nova maestro, João Gilberto. Also recorded by Chet Baker, Michel Petrucciani, Joe Pass, and Shirley Horn.

Once again we feature real jazz played on real instruments by real musicians on our backing track collection for this latin jazz classic. Enjoy live double bass, piano, drums, and guitar on this soulful Italian backing track.

I am happy to be able to say ‘Here it is!’ to all my Italian customers around the globe who have requested this number, thanks for bringing this song to my attention!
