I have also seen her in a concert hall since than that lucky night. A once in life time expericnce being up close. She was moving and powerful in either venue. Her recording captures her magical voice and i don't even know what she is singing about in her native language. I have become a big fan.

It's Mariza, the Fado singer, and then some :o) As close to perfect pitch as I have rarely heard.This album needs to be added to Amazon e-music!

I first heard Fado music while watching an episode of Rick Steves' travel show when he visited Portugal. It immediately caught my attention; the cafe singer who performed was captivating. Then I saw Mariza sing on the 'Tavis Smiley Show' on PBS. She was breathtaking! What a voice! I've been collecting her CDs ever since.

Highly recommended if you love or even just like fado.

I must admit, I bought this CD after a recent visit to Lisbon, where Mariza's music was playing in a souvenir shop at the fortress (I know, what a sucker). But hey, no regrets. This CD puts me right back in Lisbon, walking the streets of the Alfama district on a balmy summer night. Her voice is mesmerizing, and like others, the language barrier does nothing to sully your enjoyment of her music. Plus, a lyric sheet is included, so you can practice your Portuguese right along with the songs. From a fado amateur, this is a great CD.

She is a singer like no other.

This cd is famously. She is amixture of ethinivcities, but of such elegance, her voice is angelical. What a dream to hear her sing.....I can listen to her all day. I ghighly reccommend this cd. It arrived quicker then a blink of an eye. Marvelous!!!! So happy but this ois for a fellow Portuguese friend. So I don' get to keep it. But I chose this one oin particular because of the song..."Rosa Branca," which in "Portuguese means White rose. I think it is wonderful tht she is well known rthroughout the world!!! Iy's a must have to hear cd!!! Great seelers!!

Terrific CD. I love Mariza.
