5.0 out of 5 stars The eighth wonder, January 20, 2001

With this new album Dulce Pontes obtains the absolute mastery of her voice. Breaking with her last album, in this one she sings original songs that fit her voice like a glove. Nevertheless she does not forget the portuguese popular music - fado. If you like good music, I absolutly recommend this album to you

5.0 out of 5 stars Fado Forever!, September 18, 2006

This review is from: Lusitana (Audio CD)

Being a newly inducted fan of fado music, I purchased this cd based on recommendations found here and on other sites.

I knew from the first track that this was something special. The arrangements are superb with a more upbeat vs. stark Fado tunes (even though there is nothing wrong with that). Most importantly, what a voice and does it ever carry!

I think Dulce Pontes is an unmistakable talent that would be a hit in any language, country, or genre. She has won me over with her vocals but also much credit must be given to the arrangements and producer of such a fine disc!

In this new album the amazing voice of Dulce Pontes comes to a maximum of beauty and at the same time potence. Breaking with her last album, Dulce Pontes appears with new original songs that fit her voice like a glove. Nevertheless, Dulce Pontes does not forget the portuguese popular song - fado - which we can understand beneath each song in this album. If you like good music, do not hesitate and guy this album
