Exciting Listening.......2006-10-24

I've just discovered (for myself) Jovino! Heard him live, rushed to my computer to buy a disk, bought three, of which this is the most exciting. I doubt Jovino would accept the comparison, but his music reminds me of the best of Dave Brubeck! A complex, intellectually compelling piano combined with a lyrical, vocal sax or clarinet; a penchant for insistent and urgent rhythms and counterrhythms; a subtle, understated yet memorable bass. The Live at Olympia is also an exceptional album. This is not some kind of World Music novelty; this is mainline jazz.

Jovino is Masterful.......2006-08-02

Jovino is a true Master of the Piano and Flute, a Master in composition, a Master in arrangements, a true Master at performing and the adjectives could go on and on, but all it'd take is for you to purchase this masterpiece and experience it for yourself.
This is without a doubt one of the best Brazilian Jazz CDs of this 2006; 9 of the 11 cuts here are from his own inspiration, and they are HOT, the ones I've enjoyed the most are:
a) Estrela do Mar (Starfish)
b) Festa de Ere (Children's Party)
c) Homeopatia (Homeopathy)
d) Rancho Azul (Blue Ranch) with Specal Guest Marcos Amorim in guitars
e) Cerca do Macaco (Monkey's Fence)
and the other 2 cuts to finish up the album are also very important;
f) Nana -a Brazilian Jazz Standard written by Moacir Santos/Mario Telles- here performed by Joyce
and
g) Juvenal No Grumari -written by Jovino's musical mentor Hermeto Pascoal- who also performs here superbly.

And finally I'd like to add the list of wonderful musician who accompany Jovino for this masterful creation:

- Jovino Santos Neto / Piano, Flute
- Rogerio Botter Maio / Bass
- Marcio Bahia / Drums
- Hermeto Pascoal / Voice on glass w/water, Melodica, Euphonium mouthpiece and chewing-gum aluminum wrapper on Juvenal in Grumari
- Joyce / Vocals on Nana
- Hamilton de Holanda / 10-string Mandolin on Gente Boa
- Gabriel Grossi / Harmonica on Bach-te-vi
- Marcos Amorim / Acoustic Guitar on Blue Ranch
- Fabio Pascoal / Percussions

Enjoy this outstanding musical journey with Jovino !!!!!!!!

Ingratiating Brazilian Piano Music Sensitively Played.......2004-01-04

Although this is the third in a series of recordings of Villa Lobos's piano music played by Brazilian pianist Sonia Rubinsky on the Naxos label, it's the first to come my way. I have little knowledge of Villa Lobos's piano music; as a youth I stumbled my way through 'O Polichinello' at the keyboard, and I've heard the visceral 'Rudepoêma' performed in recital by Marc-André Hamelin (but don't have his Villa Lobos CD). I was unprepared for the artful but unforced charm of the pieces on this disc.

'Suite Floral' (8 mins.) is a three-piece suite written in a perfumed impressionistic and somewhat derivative style not generally characteristic of the composer. The middle piece, 'Uma Camponeza Cantadeira' ('A Singing Country Girl'), is makes effective use of naive-sounding quintal harmonies and an asymmetric accompanimental figure in the bass. The suite is followed on this CD by 'Ciclo Brasileiro,' a major four-piece suite (22 mins.) whose components separately and in toto are hypnotizing. In my aural imagination, 'The Peasant's Sowing' mimics in right-hand figurations the broadcasting of seed, while a hymnlike chorale in the left hand lauds the fertility of the earth. 'Impressions of a Serenade Musician' is naive-sounding but the virtuosic piano writing, particularly in the repetitive fragmentation of the waltz tune, is artfully sophisticated. 'The Fête in the Heartlands' bustles with high energy and the rapidly alternating chords remind one of the previously mentioned 'O Polichinello' from 'A Prole do bebê.' 'Dance of the White Indian' is a virtuosic and fierce-sounding toccata with ostinato alternating chords surrounding a middle-register melody; it reportedly is a self-portrait of the composer. (I wonder if the hint of the 'Dies Irae' in the melody is intentional; I expect so.)

'Brinqueda de Roda' ('Children's Round Games') is a 12-minute collection of seven simple pieces (possibly meant for children themselves to play) based on Brazilian children's singing and dancing games. The textures are simple, often with oom-pah or Alberti bass accompaniments, the melodies ingratiating and the whole thing utterly charming in its simplicity.

The three infectious 'Danças Caracteristicas Africanas' are based on some melodies Villa Lobos heard when among Mato Grosso Indians; they clearly have African antecedents (and, for that matter, syncopated proto-ragtime rhythms abound). The excellent booklet notes by James Melo tell us that an orchestral version of these dances exists.

The beguiling 5-minute 'Tristorosa,' an early piece (1910), is a gently swaying waltz written in rondo form [ABACA]; the two contrasting sections are slightly more impulsive but they return to the sultry grace of the original theme. Ms Rubinsky's Brazilian origin is in evidence here--the subtle rubato is perfect.

The disc concludes with three of Villa Lobos's 'Chôros', Nos. 1, 2 and 5. No. 1 ('Tipico') was originally for guitar and features 'typical' Brazilian dance rhythms; again, Ms Rubinsky's handling of rhythms and alterations of tempi via fermatas and rubato are masterful. No. 2, originally for flute and clarinet but rewritten for piano by the composer, features a stylized use of the clave rhythm and has an unexpected comic ending. Chôros No. 5 ('Alma Brasileira' ['Brazilian Soul']) is indeed soulful with languorous sections interrupted by a violent, sexy dance employing tart polytonal harmonies.

I enjoyed this disc immensely and gained new regard for Villa Lobos as a composer for piano. Sonia Rubinsky's playing is sensitive, rhythmically alive and virtuosic when needed. The recorded piano sound is lifelike.

Album Description

Following Grupo de Capoeira Angola Pelourinho's introduction via their 1996 release Capoeira Angola from Salvador, Brazil, the group returns with an even stronger statement, well worth the wait. Delving deeper into capoeira's mental and physical "poetry in motion," the music on Brincando na Roda brings to life the essence of this graceful art form's self-defense-styled movements. An integral part of capoeira, the music is a complementary 'soundtrack' which resulted from a cross-pollination of African origins and Brazilian culture. Capoeira as a whole continues to flourish and spread exponentially throughout the world today. Extensive notes in English and Portuguese, 45 minutes

Wonderful Recording.......2007-07-19

First of all, Camila Costa is fabulous! But everyone here is also wonderful. There's a great vibe between these singer/performers, you can really hear it in the tracks. All 4 are different enough as individuals, so as to lend a constantly changing sound for the ears. A lot of tradition going on as well as new and jazz-oriented sounds too. The complex 4-part harmonies are astounding. Very well done! I would highly recommend this CD.

Love it........2005-03-18

Vida de Negro da Senzala is probably one of the best Capoeira songs to joga to. The rhythm and chorus builds a sense of energy; you can't help but smile when you throw an armada. Axe.

The Full Spectrum of Capoeira Music.......1999-08-04

I have not found a clearer, more realistic or musically diverse CD of Capoeira. A student or a layperson will hear and learn so much from this work.

Note: The liner notes are detailed but poorly translated from the French in some areas. Mestre Vincent Pastinha does not appear on this recording, as has been erroneously listed. Mestre Sombra (Shadow) is featured as the performing Master's Master.
