Product Description
VARIOS INTERPRETES SAMBA BOSSA NOVA
Amazon.com
This eclectic compilation shows the syncopated and seductive evolution of the African-derived Brazilian samba and its offspring, the bossa nova. The CD features a new-wave series of moods and grooves tailor-made for the 21st century. There's angel-voiced Rosa Passos and her silky version of the Ary Barroso/Luiz Peixoto song "E Luxo So." Guitarist-vocalist Márcio Faraco's remake of Noel Rosa's samba-canção "Feitiço da Vila" is just as tasteful. The elegant, classically tinged Quarteto Jobim-Morelenbaum, led by cellist Jacques Morelenbaum, skillfully mixes Ravel-like harmonies with Afro-Brazilian beats on "Eu e o Meu Amor/Lamento No Morro" from the film Black Orpheus. The London-based group Da Lata swings the sacred syncopations of "Cores" in a club-friendly, secular rendition. And the talented Moreno Veloso, son of the great Caetano Veloso, turns in an intimate and atmospheric version of Olodum's "Deusa do Amor" (Goddess of Love). These tracks show that the bossa nova and the samba can still give us new musical surprises. --Eugene Holley Jr.

The liner notes say "the children of the Bossa Nova generation are also coming of age and while many originally rebelled against their parents' music, they are now returning to it to carry the torch of the Bossa Nova style". Indeed, there is a song by the son and grandson of Jobim on this sunny CD.And it has the authentic feel. Songs each by a different performer, but well chosen. The best song, for my money, is Rosa Passos' lyric version of the Ari Barroso song "E Luxo So." This is the song Stan Getz made a memorable version of on "Jazz Samba", the spectacular album that started it all. This song never fails to improve my mood and put a smile on my face whenever I hear it. There is more Carnival polyrhythyms here than Bossa Nova had originally, which makes it all the more...Read more 29 of 30 people found the following review helpful:  A great collection of contemporary Brazilian music!!!, By This review is from: Samba Bossa Nova (Audio CD) I bought this CD merely by chance and I am quite surprised and delighted with it! Most of the songs in this interesting collection are simply outstanding!
It was through this album that I came to know some really great Brazilian artists that I wouldn't have discovered otherwise: the fantastic "Quarteto Jobim-Morelenbaum" (track #1), Caetano Veloso's son "Moreno Veloso +2" (track #5) and especially the gorgeous voice and style of Rosa Passos (track #9)!!! To name just a few!!! This is really a very enjoyable album, a great companion to the classics from Veloso, Jobim, Gilberto, etc. 19 of 20 people found the following review helpful: Wonderful, By NY Lou "Lou" (New York, USA) - See all my reviews This review is from: Samba Bossa Nova (Audio CD) While there seem to be a ton of Brazilian compilations on the market these days, this is simply one of the best. Every song is fabulous, catchy, and well-produced. The opening track is a new version of one of those classic bossa novas from Black Orpheus. I seem to hear it all the time when I pop into bookstores and cafes these days. It is so good, that I frequently almost embarrass myself by singing along. It is that captivating. The sambas are equally infectious. This CD is great. |
