Average Rating: Rating: - Morellenbaum 2/ Sakamoto: Casa Wonderful CD with the "traditional" Brasilian music of Jobim being interpreted by the superb voice of Paula Morelenbaum. The piano music by Ryuichi Sakamoto adds further value to this unique musical experience which is even to be described as being more impressive than the original Jobim versions of the songs. To be highly recommended !! Rating: - calm but outstanding! Dear people who is interested in CASA i just want to say this is an excellent album. all songs sounds comfortable and you can feel the passion of master of bosanova, Antonio Carlos Jobim and you will also be impressed by outstanding vocalist Paula Morelenbaum. and i heard all songs in this album have never been released before and this album was recorded in Antonio Carlos's House in Brazil. How special this is.... i highly recommend this album to you and another master of music, ryuichi sakamoto joined to this album and i think he mainly led this project from start to end. well buy it~ i don't know what else to say Rating: - ANOTHER GEM... ...and I was sure that the Morelenbaums couldn't easily top their previous album (QUARTETO JOBIM-MORELENBAUM). This new release finds Paula and Jacques joined by the amazingly talented Japanese pianist Ryuichi Sakamoto -- and if you think that's an inappropriate addition, wait until you hear this beautiful recording. Sakamoto's work has long been considered some of the best around -- his soundtracks alone are enough to cement his place in music's hall of hallows -- and his creativity and sensitivity are well-spent on these tunes by Brazil's legendary songwriting master, Antonio Carlos Jobim. Paula's vocals are stunning in their emotion and loveliness, and Jaques' cello is perfect in every way. There are several notable 'guests' on the recording as well: Paulo Jobim, a member of the aforementioned Quarteto, adds his tasteful guitar work; Ed Motta duets with Paula on vocals on one track; Luiz Brasil is along on guitar; Zeca Assumpcao delivers on bass; and the astonishing (but never overpowering) touches of Marcos Suzano on percussion complete the mix. My only (minor) complaint about the track selections is the inclusion of the final track, a live improvisation. While it showcases the imaginations and musical telepathy shared by Jaques and Ryuichi, it's a little cacophonous for the rest of the material -- but it's definitely not enough to compel me to drop my rating of this fine recording below its well-deserved 'five stars'.
