5.0 out of 5 stars Relaxation and exhilaration in a variety of lovely pieces., August 2, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Nazareth: Brazilian Waltzes & Tangos (Audio CD)

Piano recordings of E.Nazareth are hard to come by. Finally, after around two years of wait and a disappointment with M.Bratke, along comes this CD like a wonderful bouquet of the most colorful flowers. It is Joplinesque, Chopinesque. It is classical but light. It is merry, sublime, gay -in its proper sense- and humorous. About the only regret I have is the fact that pianists, who interpret Ernesto Nazareth compete with almost the same selections, I'm sure he composed many more. I grabbed Ms. Ferman's CD because it has the most.

Wonderful recording, wonderful music!

GO GET IT!!

This is a wonderful album if you like calm, soothing classical piano music. It is one of my favorite albums.

Relative to another reviewer's comments that it 'didn't seem Brazilian': Ernesto Nazareth composed this music over 100 years ago. He is credited with inventing the tango style of music. Perhaps that is why it does not sound Brazilian in today's sense of the meaning.
