NORTH AND SOUTH was nominated for the 2004 Grammy Award for Best Jazz Vocal Album.
On NORTH AND SOUTH, Brazilian vocalist Luciana Souza traverses both hemispheres to lend her unique, technically accomplished voice to American and Brazilian standards. Souza's vocal approach is significant in that she marries the thin, studied tonality of classic Brazilian singers like Elis Regina to phrasings and rhythms that reflect contemporary North American vocalists. Alternating between English and Portuguese, Souza manages to sound at once detached, impassioned, casual, harmonically adventurous, rhythmically loose, and technically precise on every cut here.
Perhaps it can be attributed to Souza's ease with the material, but she seems to excel at the Brazilian tunes. It is her treatments of Antonio Carlos Jobim's bossa nova classics "Corcovado" and "Chega de Saudade" that are the real standouts. Souza's self-penned "No Wonder" is also engaging, a free and easy swing through which the singer's phrases knot and unfurl. Excellent support from a small ensemble of musicians makes this showcase of Souza's talents a sure bet.

Verdes Años, "The Green Years." - If you love acoustic music, you should check out this recording of Portuguese Fado, Brazilian Chorinho, and original Waltzes and Rumbas. While not typical, this pairing of the classical guitar with the clarinet will surprise some listeners with its abundantly warm and inviting sound. The album sets a mood that is evocative, romantic, and deeply emotional. At its heart are latin and jazz moods intertwined with classical structures and lyrical, expressive melodies. Each track on the disc shines with individual character. Check out the sound clips: the thirteen pieces on Verdes Años take the imagination on an enchanting musical journey. Audiophiles will particularly appreciate the high sonic quality and clarity of this recording, the result of the latest in high-definition digital technology.Azulão is Patrick Francis, guitar, and Keith Wilson, clarinet. Both classically trained musicians, the two share a musical ...
| | Frank Rosolino Last Recording CD (2006)
Norte E Sul (North And South) album
$13.05 
It took Frank Rosolino's widow Diane many years to find a label willing to release this music, and that is understandable. Frank Rosolino, one of jazz's greatest trombonists, went crazy on November 26, 1978, shooting two of his sons and killing himself. The completely unexpected turn of events from a trombonist who was witty and always seemed in good spirits was a shock to the jazz world, but he had apparently suffered from depression for years. In ...
