Mariza - Mundo
Records - Outubro 15, 2015
Produzido por Javier Limón, vencedor de vários Grammy Awards, “Mundo” é o seu primeiro disco novo em cinco anos.
It’s true, but it’s remarkable not for her
choice of songs, rather the quality of her singing. Her last set, Fado
Tradicional, was over-declamatory and failed to do justice to her highly
emotional live performances. Now comes an album dominated by “musical
fado” – in which different songs are given the traditional treatment –
and her approach is transformed.
From the thoughtful Rio de Mágoa to the delicate opening to Paixão, this is a more relaxed, personal and intimate Mariza. The songs range from the sturdy fado classic Anda O Sol Na Minha Rua (made famous by Amália Rodrigues) through to Argentinian tango; a lilting, a keyboard-backed song from Cape Verde, partly sung in English; and fado-tinged Portuguese ballads. All are transformed by that remarkable voice.
