Editorial Review: Amazon.com: If the legendary singer Amália Rodrigues is the queen of fado, the national song genre of Portugal, this debut by Mariza announces her coronation as its crown princess of the 21st century. This twentysomething, Mozambique-born beauty of Portuguese, Spanish, German, African, and Indian descent rapidly rose from the Mouraria district of Lisbon to become fado's newest and brightest star. The 12 selections on this recording are arranged in chamber-style ensembles consisting of bass, piano, classical guitar, and its 12-stringed, Portuguese cousin, the Portuguese viola. Songs like "O Gente Da Minha Terra" and the traditional "Por Ti" ring with a haunting feeling of saudade well beyond Mariza's years. "Maria Lisboa," "Ha Fest Na Mouraria" (with cellist Davide Zaccaria), and "Barco Negro" are peppered with Iberian and African-flavored percussion. Mariza sings these songs of love, God, and country with a youthful vitality that proves that fado is alive and well. --Eugene Holley Jr. Customer Reviews

 Rating: - The 'fado' is alive !!!Sweet, elegant and powerful voice. Beautiful songs. You don't have to understand portuguese to feel the meaning of these 'fados'. Rating: - Mariza & Fado & SuadadesThe Portuguese say that there is no literal translation for the word "suadades". The is no word that exactly captures the emotional intensity of its meaning in the English language. It's probably best described as the intense emotional ache and inconsoleable deep longing for a treasured-something lost - the love of your life, a joyous life of a time gone by or a child taken before her time. So when you listen to Fado music, it's probably best to be prepared with with your heart and head in that place, or at least expcect to be trasported there quickly. Having a bottle of red wine, some candles to light and box of tissues on hand is also good preparation. To that emotional preparation add the inriguing and beautifully ...

My wife and I sat glued to the set for the next hour - that's how compelling her voice is. Rating:  - Sigh!Mariza has the "balls" but not the soul. Amalia Rodrigues was not only the Queen of Fado but one of the greatest singers ever. Mariza is not even close. Rating: - Essa garota pode cantar como uma anja!Mariza has a voice like butter. Smooth, comfortable, sexy, even. If you are not familiar with the genre, Fados (Portuguese for ¨Fates¨), is a folk genre from Portugal that may remind you of Spanish and Italian folk genres, with unique rythms, mandolin and guitar, soulful singing. I suppose it's hard to explain, but, you should hear it. Se ja conhece Fados, é provável que ja conhece a Mariza, quem canta como uma anja... |
