CD Reviews

Great CD+DVD combo
Papetti | Mexico City | 03/31/2009
(5 out of 5 stars)

"The CD tracks are listed here at the Amazon page, and they are 11 tracks recorded live in Rio de Janeiro celebrating the 50 year anniversary of Bossa Nova, and 3 more recorded in a studio setting; all of them with great guests:

- BossaCucaNova / Keyboards, Bass and Samplings

- Cris DeLanno / Vocals and Flute

- Carlos Lyra / Vocals and Composition

- Fernanda Takai / Vocals

- Joao Donato / Piano, Vocals and Composition

- Simoninha / Vocals

- Eddie Motta / Vocals

- Marcos Valle / Fender Rhodes, Vocals, Composition

- Jacques Morelenbaum / Cello

- Leo Gandelman / Sax and Flute

- Roberto Menescal / Guitar, Composition



But the best part of this combo is the DVD; it's over 2 hours long with "Na Base da Bossa" or the "Basics of Bossa" and all the songs of the Concert and the Studio; "Na Base da Bossa" is a fantastic documentary of the begginings of Bossa Nova in the accounts of several original Bossa Nova Monsters like Roberto Menescal / Wanda Sa / Marcos Valle / Leny Andrade / Carlos Lyra, and it also shows some studio recordings with great guests like:

- Thelma de Freitas

- Marcela Mangabeira

- Fernanda Takai

- Marcos Valle

- Leo Gandelman

- Joao Donato

- Marcel Powell

- Erika Machado

- Carlos Lyra

- Pedro Luis



And many more surprises; a great combo for anybody interested in more insights about Bossa Nova, a musical craze that started 50 years ago and still going on strong, with these folks who keep its flame burning on high, by adding their electronic gifts to Bossa classics, aided by some of its original members. Super recommendable!!!!!!!!!!!!"
