For those of you that love Brazilian music...

... try Morelenbaum/Sakamoto: Casa, on Sony. They're a trio; Paula Morelenbaum is the vocalist. She has absolutely the sweetest voice I've ever heard. Her husband Jaques Morelenbaum is a wonderful violinist, and Ryuichi Sakamoto is a very prominent pianist. Together, they make some of the most hypnotic music I've ever heard.

Thanks for the heads up!

Ryuichi Sakamoto doing Brazilian music? Are these older Bossa Nova tunes like those by Jobim or newer stuff?

I'll definitely look into it. Thanks!

I just bought Casa, Day in New York, and Ryuichi Sakamoto's Film Music on Amazon.com. Heheh.

Dennisb,

I received Casa and have been playing it almost continuously since. I totally agree with Dearings assessment of this CD. Just fantastic in all regards. I had no idea Sakamoto could play the piano with such touch and emotion.

Thanks for sharing this wonderful discovery!
