5.0 out of 5 stars What a voice!, November 10, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: Ana Rita Joana Iracema E Carolina (Audio CD)

Somewhere deep in the Amazon jungle, there is a secret laboratory that is producing the world's greatest female singers. I mean, how do the Brazilians do it? Elis Regina, Joyce, Vania Abreu, Fernanda Porto, Adriana Calcanhotto...I could go on and on...and now we have that incredibly deep voice of Ana Rita Joana Iracema e Carolina. You'd never guess that someone who looks so delicate and girlish would have such a voice. It is overpowering without ever sounding pushed. It reminds me somewhat of Maria Bethania's and (agreeing with another reviewer here) of Cassia Eller's but I like Ana's more and it is well displayed in this fine set of well-arranged and fresh-sounding songs. Very danceable too. Check it out. I wish she were coming to my town. I'd have a front row seat for sure.

This cd is incredibly enjoyable. Ana's voice is richly textured and deeply moving. The music is mature, nuanced and energetic. One need not understand Portuguese to fall in love with this cd. Highly recommended. If you like Cassia Eller, Maria Bethania, or Joni Mitchell I bet you will love this cd.

I received this cd as a birthday present. I didn't listen to it right away but as soon as I heard her voice, I was highly impressed and fell in love instantly.
My favorites are songs 1, 3, 5, 7, 12, and 15. Her voice reminds me of Cassia Eller, another favorite of mine.
I'm afraid that if I keep playing the cd, I'll get tired of it. However, I highly doubt that. This is a great find and I'm looking for to listening to her earlier work.
