About the Album:
"A Sombra Confia ao Vento" is the album I have always wanted to make. It covers over 100 years of Brazilian music, including the work of singers-songwriters / composers / bands like Carlos Gomes, Chiquinha Gonzaga, Lamartine Babo, Waldir Azevedo, Nelson Cavaquinho, Dolores Duran, Villa-Lobos, Cartola, Boca Livre, Som Imaginário among other masters, this album has given me the pleasure and joy of singing songs that are eternal, both for those who already know them sung by their original singers, and for those who are getting to know them renewed by the superb job of our arranger, Ricardo Calafate, also a master of "choro".
The power of music is impressive. Curiously, while I was recording this album, some personal recollections from early childhood came up to my mind. It was like they needed a spark so that emotion could come up just the right way, like in a purely magical moment. Among other memories, is the time we spent as a family, in Praia Brava (featured on the album jacket), a small beach located on the south coast of the State of Rio de Janeiro where my grandfather, Affonso, played "Ä Casinha Pequenina" on his guitar, to lull me to sleep and my grandmother, Odette, on her accordion, whose fast fingers running precisely on the keyboard made my eyes sparkle. I feel she is beautifully represented here by our master Kiko Horta. "Se essa rua fosse minha" brings me back to my first years of life, when my mother, Lúcia, sang it to her guitar as a nursery rhyme to add some color to the quiet afternoons in Praia Brava. In the album, it has been recorded in its original 19th-century-style "modinha". This way, our musical stroll goes on from 1859's "Quem sabe?" by Carlos Gomes, to the end of the 20th century with Boca Livre's "Toada", first recorded in 1979. Even considering my whole musical experience as a singer, from Gama Filho University Chorus performances, to the most informal gatherings, never, before this journey along the most genuine Brazilian Music, which I most admire, had I had the chance to perform with such synergy with the musicians and in such a rewarding way. The state-of-the-art technology of Umuarama Studios, located in Rio de Janeiro, along with musical talents like Dirceu Leite, a master of the brass, precise Augusto Mattoso's acoustic bass, impressive Rodrigo Jesus's drums, purely emotional Maria Clara Valle's cello, competent Affonso Marins's electric bass, another master, virtuoso Toni 7 Cordas and his seven stringed guitar, and, of course my friend Ricardo Calafate, arranger, spotless with his mandolin, among other instruments. Great friends, beautifully completing a project that makes me really proud.
I hope you like it, as I am singing with the best of my soul, with a lot of care, with love of music, offering my voice surrounded by top class musicians, who honored me with their special participation, which greatly enriched this work.
