This recording "jazzifies" Noel's masterpieces,
By ninaj@mindspring.com (United States of America) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Noel Rosa: Letra E Musica (Audio CD)
The intensely Latin flavor of Noel's compositions is totally lost in this CD. The attempt to make this music accessible to international markets has gone entirely too far - one cannot recognize the doleful melodies of Noel: they are buried under voice acrobatics. And of course the superb poetry of the original songs is lost...
5.0 out of 5 stars
Three geniuses: Brilliant vocal artist, pianist & composer,
By
This review is from: Noel Rosa: Letra E Musica (Audio CD)
Noel Rosa was one of Brazil's greatest composer/geniuses. This recording brings his sambas, written in the 30's, to our listening style. Leandro Braga is a world-class pianist with his own brilliant CD, "Pé na Cozinha." He has worked with the greatest Brazilian luminaries, including here the remarkable Johnny Alf.
Rosa's masterpieces have been re-recorded and re-interpreted by every significant Brazilian artist. This is one of the best -- a collector's album. |
