Jeitinho Brasiliero

Editorial Reviews

From Jazziz
Carlos Malta first gained recognition in the bands of Hermeto Pascoal, the restlessly creative Brazilian multi-instrumentalist. On Jeitinho Brasileiro (Malandro), Malta's first recording as leader, Pascoal's influence is evident in the compositions' structures and in Malta's choice of instrumentation (viola, cello, tuba, and euphonium, alongside more traditional Brazilian brass and reeds). Malta is also a multi-instrumentalist, playing the whole saxophone family as well as flutes and piccolos. Our featured track, "Paradindonde," is a duet in the maracatu style between Malta (overdubbed saxophones, flutes, and vocals) and percussionist Marcos Suzano (pandeiro).

5 out of 5 stars Carlos Malta - que maravilha - Re-reviewed ,not to be MISSED.......2000-01-26

Oi pessoal ! This cd is most definitely one of the my FAVORITE " examples" of "Musica Brasileira instrumental"-- that covers A LOT of ground! Carlos Malta is formerly of Hermeto Pascoal's fabled "O GRUPO"(the seminal grupo, as is said!).He is the reed/woodwind player extaordinaire!!A very unique musician who absorbed Hermeto's "vision", the cd is a brilliant document of Seu carlos' personal musical heart. It's is magnificent blend of orchestral arrangements-lush like any of the Ellington or Mingus' finest hours- set to the ritmos of Brasil's northeast. The cd is recorded, forming a "suite". Ellington's "Afro-Bossa Suite", or Mingus' "Cumbia & Jazz Fusion" might be close comparisons. Among the enjoyable moments in this cd is a lush waltz "Luz do Sol" which features the enchanting Jane DuBoc singing in the wordless Brasilian style- I hesitate to call it vocalese. The Maracatu "Paradindonde..." leads into"Luz",and is my particular favorite. THERE IS NOT A BAD TRACK ON THIS CD! Parabens, Seu Carlos !!(And to Malandro records for releasing it in the USA!) This cd is "o som da alegria"-Viva o som, sempre ! 10000 stars
