Details:
"I know you will enjoy listening to this CD as much as I enjoyed being part of it.
You will hear 14 of the greatest classic Brazilian songs sung beautifully by the multi-talented vocalist Lilly Abreu. Lilly is like two singers in one, able to swing with the coolest bossa nova (check out the very romantic So Em Teus Bracos) as well as sing gloriously in a more chamber music like setting (Carinhoso is off-the hook!!!), she can samba like crazy too (you will not be able to hold still to Samba Da Minha Terra). The CD grooves start to finish thanks to all the fine musicians on the disc, present are; Dwayne Dolphin, James Johnson III, Eric DeFade, Alton Merrell, Jay & Lucas Ashby, David Ganc, Anne Williams and myself Eric Susoeff.
Thanks for considering buying this disc, if you love Brazilian Jazz you will not be disappointed."
