Review by Alison Bentley, 04 Jul 2012

The CD's called Mulheres (Women), and the songs are about women- mostly from the classic bossa nova era- written and originally sung by men. Amália's voice is gentle, completely natural, and deceptively understated. Her breathy tones and conversational style mask a sophistication and control...
