A Beautiful tribute to a Brazilian Master.......2006-02-16

Moacir Santos is a master composer, arranger and saxophonist. His shore is Brazilian Jazz with a combo comprising rhythm section + brass in a unique combination which is consistently applied to such original and unconventional compositions.

In the late 60s, Santos went to live in the USA where he's recorded three albums for Blue Note Records. He also became an auxiliary writer for some great arranger just like Billy Byers was to Quincy Jones.

'Ouro Negro' is a 2-CD album dedicated to the music of Moacir Santos. It was recorded in 2003 under his direction. He was already retired then at his 79 years old but all his great arrangements are there as played by current important in Brazil's music scene in brand-new renditions.

Tracks cover music from Santos' classic album "Coisas" (also available here @Amazon) and also from his three American albums.

Features some Santos' standards like 'Coisa #5' (aka 'Nana'), 'April Child', 'Suk-Cha' and 'Mother Iracema' all with great updated arrangements.

Also features Gilberto Gil, Djavan and Milton Nascimento plus sime unnecessary vocals.

A wonderful revelation!.......2005-02-23

So I'm in Sao Paulo having dinner with a Brazilian friend and we're discussing Brazilian music and he mentions this CD and Moacir Santos. He knows I know something about Brazilian music despite the fact I'm a gringo. But I had never heard of this guy and so I must have flashed a completely blank look. My friend shrugged and told me to go buy it. Of course I couldn't find it in Brazil so I ordered it online and it was waiting for me when I got home. But I did pick up a copy of Coisas and got a taste of what to expect.

Oh my goodness--it is heaven! It is unbelievably familiar especially for those who pay attention to jazz and to movie soundtracks. Apparently Santos has lived in Pasadena for over 30 years, toiling in obscurity in the film business. His sound is unbelievably comforting and listenable.

Perhaps this is his time and this is an extraordinary pair of cds. Obviously a labor of love by those who organized and produced this in Brazil, I can not recommend it enough.

Definitely check it out...

Black gold, in deed.......2004-11-20

Big band Brazilian music was never that attractive to me. The music on this CD is different, however. It's got the most beautiful compositions. The arrangements are fantastic. And the rhythms are fabulous. This CD may turn into a classic sooner than one might think. Black gold, in deed.

Compelling Arrangements.......2004-11-17

Two cds pack in the music, with new versions of instrumental and jazz standards providing the compelling arrangements equally applicable to a dinner club, casual listener or avid jazz fan venue alike.

Ouro Negro + Moacir Santos = Colors of Brazil.......2004-11-12

Ouro Negro is a recent release by one of my long time favorites, Moacir Santos. I owe him a great debt of gratitude for bringing such joy into my life. This is a beautful CD by one of the long-acknowledged maestros of Brazil. It has incredibly intricate, yet accessible rhythms, lush harmonies, soaring solos from some of the great musicians of his country, and the essence of Moacir's joyous spirit! Favorite tunes?? Hard to pick and choose, but "Mother Iracema," "Suk-Cha," and "Carnaval" are hard to beat.

If you are in love with the music of Brazil, you owe it to yourself to own this one. I wish I could give it 6 stars!

I smiled from ear to ear from the moment I put it on until the last song ended.

Moacir Santos = A Musical Genius from Brazil.......2006-02-22

His childhood in the arid and remote interior of Brazil, under difficult conditions.

Despite that, at age 2 he was already playing with cans, leading a "baby band".

After several musical compositions in Brazil he moved to United States, where he lives now (Pasadena, California).

He worked as a church pianist, as a teacher and also as a "ghost writer" for some film soundtracks.

"Ghost Writer" is the composer that does not have his name published because someone paid him to do the work. Regrettable, but it is the truth. In fact he worked also as the ghost of the ghost, what happens when the ghost is very busy, so that he contracts a ghost.

Moacir is a very talented composer and arranger. Listen and enjoy.

Newest from a Brazilian master.......2006-02-16

Moacir Santos is a master composer, arranger and saxophonist. His shore is Brazilian Jazz with a combo comprising rhythm section + brass in a unique combination which is consistently applied to such original and unconventional compositions.

In the late 60s, Santos went to live in the USA where he's recorded three albums for Blue Note Records. He also became an auxiliary writer for some great arranger just like Billy Byers was to Quincy Jones.

This is his 2005 album, a totally new collection of fresh music, good music but neglectable music though played by the best Brazilian musicians in the area.

Wynton Marsalis plays a sensational solo in the album's best track.

Let it grow........2005-12-04

At first listen, I wasn't so sure. But this is fantastic! Let the voicings grow on you. There's no earth-shattering-ness here. But you can hear Moacir's voice through guest arrangements (even). And it's very distinct. I'm sure he deserves something more than obscurity, but most people won't have the patience to hear what's very, very unique here. It grows!

Great Album.......2001-05-23

This is a very good cd. There are good vocal harmonies between the two artists. There's dance music with chorus background singing. The songs to me are timeless.
