The power of Rodrigues' vibrant alto voice has been compared to divas like Jessie Norman and Cesaria Evora. Collaborating once again with famed artistic director Caetano Veloso, she continues to mine her rich vein of \"chamber samba\", mixing the classical purity of church singing with understated African and Brazilian rhythms. This offering is less spare than the first, with a slight hint of crossover on more commercial track like \"Afrekete\", with its nostalgic easy listening feel and girlish chorus, or \"Jeito Faceiro\", complete with male crooner and sugary violin. The rest of the album, though, has a clear, simple resonance. A tribute to the Carnival music of Rodrigues' native state of Bahia, in northern Brazil, it weaves together myths and love songs, featuring Rodrigues' enigmatic vocal high in the mix. --Lucy O'Brien\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eUPC:\u003c\/b\u003e 634387426827\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEAN:\u003c\/b\u003e 0634387426827\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguages:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding:\u003c\/b\u003e Audio CD\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eItem Condition:\u003c\/b\u003e UsedVeryGood\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ID Shop.ca","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51459583967529,"sku":"1K-ZJA1-16WX","price":5.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0747\/6225\/6681\/files\/51n_qJo3eRL.jpg?v=1762030123","url":"https:\/\/konnichiwa.ca\/products\/virginia-rodrigues-nos-cd-used","provider":"こんにちはマート | KON NICHIWA MART","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
