This enchanting, flavorful CD finds the ever curious Yo-Yo Ma traveling to South America, and Brazil in particular. The music varies from classical to samba to bossa nova; the combinations range from guitar, flute, and cello to female voice (the remarkable Rosa Passos), cello, guitar, percussion, piano, and bass; to simple cello and piano; to cello and two guitars. The overriding element is rhythm; each selection has a beat which is both infectious and sensual, but the contexts are splendidly varied. "Dansa brasileira" has a Debussy-like, impressionistic flavor, "Dansa negra" is sultry with an easy melody, "1 x 0" is a dance scored for guitar, percussion, and cello with a solo clarinet riff. It's impossible to get bored or tired listening to this creative CD; it's unique--just like Yo-Yo Ma himself--and endlessly surprising. It may not be quite what we'd call "classical" music, but it is many kinds of music, and they all will delight. The other musicians are as impressive on their instruments as Ma is with his cello, and that's saying a great deal. --Robert Levine

great........2007-01-17

it's arrived. international shipping it's very slow, but, it's arrived, very well. I'd like very much. TANKS

Obrigado Brazil.......2006-03-11

The tempos and sensuality of Brazilian music meshed with the artistry and joyous soul of Yo Yo Ma: a recipe for pleasure. I first listened to this on my car CD player and found myself wanting to pull over and get out and dance. The depth of Ma's cello adds just the right counterpoint to the rhythms and buoyancy of the samba and bossa nova. Enjoy!

Takes My Breath Away.......2006-02-11

This Disc is merely further proof of what the world already knows. Yo Yo Ma was in fact born to play the Cello, it is simply fantastic. It is a must own for me, It feels the air around you with such wonderful tones. Although some classical snobs might complain that this is nothing more than a pseudo Classical album, who cares. They should find the nearest emergency room and have someone remove the poles from thier *sses. No apologizes are needed hear, this disc is all that it needs to be, which is absolutely magnificient.......

Obrigado Brazil.......2005-09-08

The CD was received however, it can't be played because something
is wrong with it..it screeches and pops and won't play. But its open so I can't return it. Very disappointed.

A little Dull.......2005-01-24

I had the luck to see Yo Yo Ma live in concert, it was so fantastic, I went out and bought this album. But the joys of a live concert sometimes don't make it over to the album, which
sounded dull, it makes good back ground noise but it doesn't hold your attention.

Customer Reviews:

Brilliant discovery.......2007-06-04

Not only she has been one of the most remarkable voices in Brazil, but now Maria Bethania brings out this marvelous piece of pure brazilian music. Music with soul, rooted on her culture, with splendid arrangements and the more than brilliant art of Bethania.
Truly recommended.

Truly brazilian.......2004-03-19

Meant to be only a disco-release or an EP,Brasileirinho mushroomed from Bethania's pet project into a full album.
Foregone the crown of main exponent of Bahia music,she took up the title of Brazilian musical spokesperson for this one and succeeded at it.After consulting with crooner CHICO CESAR,she picked songs that best showcase different genres of MUSICA BRASILEIRA ranging from rural to ballads yet emphasizing the indigenous and african influence on it.This becomes evident in YAYA MASSEMBA and CAPITAO DO MATO as well as SENHOR DA FLORESTA.She revisits Candomble by singing XANGO MENINO and SALVE AS FOLHAS and Catholicism by declaring the beauty of PADROEIRO DO BRASIL and the radio hit SANTO ANTONIO.The presence of MIUCHA and NANA CAYMMI further beautify a work that is esoteric in content and plainly gorgeous to listen to from the start.

Album Description

The Sound of Rio: Brasileirinho is a 90-minute musical documentary film about Choro, the first genuinely Brazilian urban music. It was back in the late 19th century in Rio de Janeiro when Brazilian musicians started to blend European melodies, Afro-Brazilian rhythms and the melancholic interpretation of the Brazilian Indians' music to create Choro.

Good cd - - BY YO-YO MA.......2004-07-23

In case you were wondering - this is by Yo-Yo Ma - the famous classical Cellist. Playing with many "special guests"

Not my style but a lot of friends really like this one.

THIS IS THE SACD VERSION - won't play on regular cd players.

Rewarding Robison Recordings.......2000-10-18

Listening to Paula Robison perform on the flute is an exciting and most enjoyable experience. The rhythm in these recordings is so infectious that if you can listen to them without tapping your foot, someone should put a mirror under your nose to make sure you're still breathing. While some of the selections are slower paced, the general rhythm is Brasilian. If your taste runs in that direction, this should be a welcome addition to your music library.
