Free Music Notes for Miss PerfumadoFree Music Review: I'm adopting this woman...she's my new grandma!!! Hit: 5 Stars
You know the Dos Equis commercial, 'The Most Interesting Man in the World'? Well here's the most interesting woman. I happened upon Evora's album 'Sao Vincente' at the public library and was blown away. 'Miss Perfumado' is no less. Ms. Evora's voice is its own living thing, the essence of womanhood. All the mystery, heartache, and nurturing of your favorite aunt is there. Men want to know what she's thinking, and women hope to be that alluring.
My favorite track is Cumpade Ciznone, where a 1930's seaside night club comes to life. I hope Ms. Evora sings until her last breath because I'll be listening. If you want to broaden your horizon but don't have the money to travel, pick up 'Miss Perfumado'. Once Ms. Evora hooks you in, you'll never be the same.
Free Music Review: Words Cannot Describe the Beauty of Evora's Soul Hit: 5 Stars
As a musician who has performed with, listen to and seen many of the class acts, I regret deeply that I never had the opportunity to have seen and heard Cesaria Evora in person. The voice, and earthy soul she gives her songs are like the cozy warmth of a fire-place and candles.
Free Music Review: Lovely Hit: 5 Stars
From half a dozen of her records I've purchased so far this is one of the best, well, after "Cesaria". She is fenomenal and is adorable as usual, although the accompaniment at times is not quite of the same class.
Free Music Review: excellent Hit: 5 Stars
Excellent album, but her best album to date, in my opinion, is her last effort, "Nha sentimento"
Free Music Review: Warm, honeyed voice Hit: 4 Stars
Cesaria Evora does some of her finest work here. Those who are familiar with her other recordings will recognize the minor-key modes and yearning quality typical of her style. The instrumental arrangements are intimate, not overwhelming, and always complement her inimitable voice. That said, after purchasing three of her CDs, I feel that I've exhausted this repertoire -- there is quite a bit of melodic and harmonic similarity among them -- and don't feel inclined to own a library of her work. For those who are new to Ms. Evora, this recording would provide a lovely introduction and summation of her art.
