Free Music Review: Am?lia at her best!
Hit: 5 Stars

Allthough everything she did was simply great and magical, "Com Que Voz" is Am?lia's best record, rated by critics and public alike as one of the best, if not the best of Portuguese albums of all time. And the reasons are also apparently simple, but unique: the musical arrangements and melodies, the words of the songs, and Am?lia's unique and unforgettable voice. She chose to sing poems by some of the greatest Portuguese-speaking poets of all time, like David Mour?o-Ferreira, Alexandre O'Neil, Ary dos Santos, Manuel Alegre, and the brazilian Cec?lia Meireles. The music was composed by Am?lia's "private" composer, who chose only to write music for her voice, Alain Oulman, of French-Portuguese origin, whose melodies allowed for a greater extension and colloratura, adequate to all Am?lia could give and waiting for her total delivery. From the deep-felt sad poetry of songs like "Naufr?gio", "Cuidei que Tinha Morrido", to the lighter and happier tunes of "Maria Lisboa", "Havemos de Ir a Viana", inspired in portuguese folklore, to the bossa-nova inspired "Formiguinha Bossa Nova", and finally to the soulfullness of the great love songs like the ever flying "Gaivota" (Seagull), and "Meu Amor, Meu Amor" (My Love, My Love"), Am?lia's voice runs the gamut of all emotions, from a light-hearted jolly mood to an austere deeply-felt sincerity, awesomely but beautifully conveyed by her powerful, strong voice and its beautiful colloratura. Listening to Am?lia is listening to a new world unraveling in one's heart. Simply the best!

Com Que Voz Poster

A landmark album in the landmark career of the singer that has come to embody the soul of Portugal, 'Com Que Voz' is justly regarded as Rodrigues' masterpiece. In this 1970 album, she sings some of the finest Portuguese-language poems (Including Camoens) put to music by her longtime musical director Alain Oulman with Fado accompaniment. The result is sheer poetry; sheer magic, considered by some critics as the finest album ever recorded in Portugal. 30 years on, 'Com Que Voz' has no rivals.
