Along with Cesaria Evora and Lura, Maria de Barros represents the West African island nation of Cape Verde. Her new CD follows her debut recording, Nha Mundo. Like her musical sisters, she sings her native land's mournful morna, the festive funana/ferro, and peppery coladeira rhythms and song genres. But where Evora and Luna are more tradition-bound, De Barros can mix things up, as evidenced by her salsa-fied number "Bo Ke Nha Boy," the samba-like syncopations of "Sol Di Manha," and her hypnotic version of the French Caribbean classic, "Caresse Moi." Her voice has a light and airy ring to it, which sounds good in her native, Afro-Portuguese Criuolo language - and complements the, synths, horns, accordion, percussion, and the ukulele-like cavaquinho. All told, de Barros, like her contemporaries, is poised to take her country's music to the future, without, it is hoped, forgetting its past. --Eugene Holley, Jr.Customer Reviews:
Maria de Barros will make you smile!.......2006-12-22
Maria de Barros and her stellar group of supporting musicians and background singers create uplifting music on this CD--it is warm, sweet, and infectious from beginning to end. If and when you find yourself a little stressed out (as I have been this holiday season) you will want to play the disk right away and listen all the way through; for me, this instantly does the trick, melting away my troubles and making me smile in spite of myself. Every cut has its charms, and each reveals a slightly different dimension of the artist; as I understand it Maria is influenced by the great Cesaria Evora, but she brings her own special touch to the sweet and lilting music of Cabo Verde. Every cut is a joy to hear, and Maria shows an impressive range. She is a folk singer, she is a pop singer, she is -- a chanteuse! ("Caresse Moi" leaves me breathless, in spite of its pop sensibilities and my own stubborn prejudices against "pop" music.)
Listen to Amor Luz, Oh Menel, Bo Ke Nha Boy, Roshinha, Oumai or any of the other shimmering tunes on Danca Ma Mi. No matter what Maria sings here, you don't have to understand Portuguese to appreciate it: you will feel and instinctively understand what she is emoting. Her expression is universal, heartfelt, and positive.
Don't miss this cd. Once you've listened a few times, maybe even after the first time, you'll know why I say, "Bravo, Maria de Barros! Muito obrigado! More, please, soon!"
A Great Performance.......2006-04-04
DEEE-lightful! Joyous, happy music.......2005-03-27
The music on this CD is reminscent of Brazilian music most of all, but there is a lot of the African influence. So if you are a fan of music from that band spanning the world from South America to West Africa, you will undoubtedly enjoy "Danca Ma Mi." As a party CD for those who put on Latin American sound, this is unsurpassed. I like listening to it when I want something lively but not harsh or jarring--it's some of the happiest music I've heard in a long while.
Cape Verde is an island nation that was settled by the Portuguese in 1462. The Portugese brought African slaves, and the population is a mix of Portuguese and African influences as a result.
There are a number of types of traditional music in Cape Verde, from Morna, a tango-like sound, to its child Coladeira, and also Funana from Chile (with accordian.) And then there is Batuco, a woman's genre, fast and funny. This album features a bit of each. If you like Afro-Brazilian sound, you will love this CD.
Cape Verdeans are found all over the world, as the island has poor weather and had frequent disastrous droughts and crop failures. They brought their music along--a surprisingly happy sound for a place that had more than its share of troubles. I recommend this CD MOST HIGHLY, especially to fans of Brazilian music, Salsa, Cuban music. Give it a try.

Sprarkling, Full of life and intensity.......2006-07-31
is how I would describe these concertos
By Camargo Guarnieri.Guarnieri now one
of the best Latin-American composers
of the 20th century composed these
concetos beetween 1931 and 1963, the
Piano Concerto #1 is recorded here for
the first time. In the first Piano
concerto we hear a lot of Brazilian
percussion such as the cuica(Friction Drum)
and reco-reco(a scraper) use masterfully
especially in the final movement of
the first concerto. The Second Piano Concerto
is equally fun to listen to, and with a last
movement that opens with a tune that
one would expect to hear out the Rio
carnival. The last concerto #3, is
is also a great work. The soloist
Max Barros is wonderful, and so
are conductor Thomas Collin and
the Warsaw Philharmonic. Indeed
music full of life, emotion and
intensity. Five Stars!!!
Sparkling NeoClassical Piano Concertos with Brazilian Tinge.......2005-04-17
The three piano concertos on this disc (Nos. 1, 2 & 3) are of a piece. They are characterized by French-inspired tonality (he studied for a time in Paris with Charles Koechlin), Stravinskyan rhythmic inventiveness, jazzy, almost Gershwinian harmonies and, most striking, Brazilian dance and folk-song coloring. The outer movements have an irrepressible élan, the middle movements are bluesy and hauntingly melodic. Orchestrations is brilliant and expert and make use of many native Brazilian percussion instruments--e.g., the cuica (a friction drum), the chocalho (a rattle), and the reco-reco (a scraper); one has to wonder whether those instruments were easily available in Warsaw where these recordings were made!
The pianist, new to me, is Max Barros, himself a São Pauleño. He is clearly at home with the Brazilian idiom and is no mean performer. The playing is marked by crisp rhythmic thrust and clear passage work. In the middle movements he is capable of a songful legato. The Warsaw Philharmonic are veterans of recordings of music from around the world and they give the pianist able support; the conductor, Thomas Conlin, known to me primarily for his fine recordings of the music of George Crumb, is clearly in his element in this music. The recorded sound is clear and lifelike; it is slightly dry and this lends a clarity to the torrents of notes in the outer movements.
This is unfailingly tuneful, tonal, rhythmically exciting music and a worthy addition to Naxos' ongoing Latin American music series. One hopes we will hear more of Guarnieri's music from them.

On Nha Mundo, singer Maria de Barros makes her debut with a sensual but ultimately joyous mix of Cape Verdean music, which is a melting pot of traditional Portuguese, Cuban, Argentinean and West African styles. Much is going to be made of the fact that the young singer is goddaughter to the island country's greatest star, Cesaria Evora, but de Barros is smart enough to follow her own artistic path: Evora's music is often slow and bittersweet, carried by her deep and fragile voice; de Barros plays down the sad mornas and coladeiras in favor of galloping boleros and sambas, and her voice and phrasing is closer to Susana Baca than Evora. Singing in the Portuguese Creole dialect on Nha Mundo, which translates as "My World," she transcends the language barrier to give listeners a fun and friendly tour of the country's sun-drenched idyll. Highlights include the uplifting "Cabo Verde N'ot Era" and the softly swaying "Nha Primero." --Tad HendricksonCustomer Reviews:
Lazy, lovely, jazzy Afro-Latin elements.......2004-09-02
NHA MUNDO holds the same lazy, jazzy Afro-Latin elements which made Cesaria's works so compelling - with the added attraction of smooth vocals surpassing most of Maria de Barrlos' would-be competitors.

Customer Reviews:
Not bad actually..........2006-02-07
Tracks of note on here are:
1) Malik Sealy - Don't Get Lost In The Sauce - An extremely "real" track about his upbringing, lessons learned from life, and his dedication and focus. It is actually of historical importance because Malik Sealy died unexpectedly a few years later... making this track all that much more important. The song as a whole (including beat and lyrics) is also quite good.
2) Cedric Ceballos f/ Warren G - Flow On - A popular west-coast anthem for it's time. It's sound embodies the prime of G-funk era music and is fun to listen to.
3) Jason Kidd - What The Kidd Didd - Though he pretty much just talks about how big he is, the song has a tight beat and is engineered well. It's actually pretty funny to listen to some of the lyrics now, but entertaining nonetheless.
4)Gary Payton - Living Legal And Large - Gary Payton is considered old skool now, but he was in fact "legal and large" in the 90s. The content in this song is enjoyable to listen to and the beat is worth mentioning too.
In sum, I guess this album targets a very niche audience... So if you happen to appreciate the NBA of the mid-90s or when rap was just beginning to become a worldwide phenomenon (or the intersection of the two), you might want to pick this one up.
