Cesaria

I got this after hearing part of a track requested by Nick Clegg on Desert Island discs. The woman has a terrific voice. I can't understand a word of what she says as it's sung in a creole dialect of Portuguese spoken on Cape Verde, but the emotion is all in there. Cesaria also has the benefit of a very classy backing band, after my third or fourth listen I began to take in some of their playing, and I thought it was first rate.It's gentle stuff that I've seen described elsewhere as a 'chill out' which I think is a bit unfair. It *is* music that you can sit and let it wash around you.Highly recommended

I recommend this as an introduction to the works/singing of Cesaria. She has an amazingly expressive voice and once you have heard this CD I am sure you will be hooked.This CD was recommended to me and I have no regrets in buying this from Amazon Marketplace. Stromae recorded a track (Ave Cesaria on the album Racine Carre ) as an homage to her singing.It is a bargain!

Wonderful. recording. The serene rhythmic voice of Cesaria cannot be matched. Many songs with differing rhythms , great musicianship from her accompanying players. If you like latin style music and you haven't heard of her before, try it.

this cd is one i fell in love with years ago and now i purchased another one to give as a present.

Another enjoyable recording by this commanding singer.

As with most of Caesarias work, the voice and emotion with which she imbues her work make the recordings essential.

Great cops but not as good as some of the others

Lovely CD

Alles sehr gut, würde ich wieder kaufen, empfehle ich auch gerne weiter. Gute Qualität und Verarbeitung, sehr überzeugend und gut.

Très beau cd de Cesaria Evora avant de commencer sa carrière avec Jose Da Silva. Déjà, sa voix était magnifique!!!

come sempre un bel album, ma forse non il migliore. Comunque sia l'ordine che il cd sono da 4 stelle.

sous l'apparence d'une "énième" compilation, ce CD est en fait un album enregistré par Césaria au Portugal juste avant sa rencontre avec José Da Silva qui la fera ensuite signer sous le label Lusafrica. Un album méconnu qui reprend ses futurs grands succès avec un véritable orchestre (ce qui ne sera pas le cas de ses premiers albums où la présence de synthés est un peu trop marquée). Un très bon album, donc, que je vous recommande chaudement si vous aimez la voix si particulière de Césaria.

Très satisfait de ce vinyle, belle qualité audio.

j'ai été ravie d'avoir les paroles des chansons en français dans le livret mon plaisir en a été multiplier, la seule critique que je ferai n'est pas sur l'article lui- même mais sur la présentation sur le site il est difficile de choisir un cd sans avoir la liste des titres qu'il contient, celà vaut pour tout les cd.

Perso

楽器の音と歌う声が淋しげで心を揺らします。リズムが好きです。

Die Lieferung ging gewohnt schnell. Wir haben diese CD verschenkt und hatten die Gelegenheit die Musik zu hören. Als Hintergrundmusik zum Essen ist diese CD sehr zu empfehlen. Oder einfach nur zu hören und genießen.

Wunderschöne CD mit gefühlvollen Liedern von Cesaria. Jedesmal wenn ich sie höre kommen bei mir Urlaubserinnerungen hoch. Eine beeindruckende und talentierte Sängerin wär sie.

I have this on cassette and missed hearing it. Nice music. Rip cesaria.

Her very best !!!

I don't speak Portuguese but the music is so overwhelming and soothing that one doesn't really need to. This was the first CD of the late Mrs. Evora I listened to in early 90s, which introduced me to a new world of music. I have been hooked since.

Who knew that a lady in bear feet and a house dress could sing in such a joyous tone!!!! Amazing!

What a wonderful selection of her music.It soothes my nerves. And totally relaxes me.A great buy.Fast delivery.
