"I suspect I am like many English-speaking people inasmuch as I first heard Cancao do Mar by Dulce Pontes at the end of the Richard Gere - Edward Norton movie, Primal Fear. I think it is very telling that I did just what many others did: I immediately searched for and found the title of this music and who performed it. I doubt that very much music gets the kind of response this music got.



Dulce Pontes has a simply beautiful, and very powerful, voice. You only need to hear her once to understand.



In Cancao do Mar, the composer takes an old chord progression and gives it a new life totally unlike anything before. The new melodic directions are pure, inspired genius. I wish I had written this."
