Free Music Notes for The Jobim Songbook
Free Music Review: Unimpressive performance
Hit: 2 Stars
While listening to a recently purchased CD [CD Title:"Unknown"] by Maestro Jobim and a group of his friends I found the name of Ms. Maucha Adnet and saw a couple of photos of her with the Maestro and the recording group for his CD. I found that this lady had recorded a couple of CD's on Jobim's music and due to the fact that I own most of Jobim's music and CD's of his music, simply because I love his music, I decided to buy Ms. Adnet's "The Jobim Songbook". This CD has thirteen of Jobim's very well known beautiful songs and music.
Unfortunately, Ms. Adnet's singing is poor. Well I am just a music collector and play the piano and guitar as a student for several years-- that does not make me an expert, of course--but I have been collecting music for 51 years and have a considerable collection of LP's and now CD's and it is the first time I hear a beautiful lady--there is a photo of Ms. Adnet on the CD cover--trying to sing Jobim's songs without success. The maestro participates in singing in one song in the CD although no credit is given; I suppose this was an overdubbing due to the fact that the CD was recorded in 2004 and Jobim passed away in 1994. I was surprised that a producer might invest funds in a very professional group of excellent musicians to accompany someone with such small singing capabilities. Then I read in the limited information "booklet" that came in with the CD, that she produced this CD along with another lady. Well, Oh, well...
Ms. Adnet singing is hardly listenable due to her very low volume level, she has problems with timing the lyrics into the music, I do not think that this is a new mode of singing. Is it? She also seems to go out of key [?"Desafinada"?]sometimes. When I heard the first few songs I had to go and look at her CD photo; her voice sounded as that of an older lady, but then I told myself, "Well, that's her tone of voice, what's the problem with her low tone voice?". Problem is that, if she has the capabilities for singing...they are very well hidden, and then she should go to a good teacher and evaluate her --not everyone has the ability for singing--and, perhaps, teach her how to sing.
I do not want to be unfair; I am sincere in evaluating this CD of Ms. Maucha Adnet. I am giving two stars to this CD due to the excellent musicians who must have had some challenges trying to follow Ms. Adnet's "singing". I do not think I will buy a second CD of her.
