Let me begin by saying, I don't like Mariza's version of "Alfama". As a friend of Amalia Rodrigues and Maria da Fé, I don't like to hear anyone sing Alfama. That said, this new album by Mariza is a fado lover's dream. Every syllable deliciously prounounced. I first heard "Ja me deixou" last year at Maria's place Senhor Vinho performed by Beatriz de Conceicao, one of the finest fadistas to draw breath, and Mariza equals her. "As guitarras" truly brings a lump to the throat, and "Pequenhas verdade" adds a new meaning to class. I could go on and on, folks.... JUST BUY THE ALBUM!!!!

Sorry but this isn't "Fado". It is Pop music nad not the best one, for the effect!! If you want to hear REAL "Fado" and a fantastic singer listen to Ana Moura or Mafalda Arnauth or Cristina Branco. These are true "fado" singers, full of Pathos and emotion!!

This singer packs an amazing emotional impact, and her fabulous, earthy voice is beautifully set off by settings that vary from traditional to innovative. The haunting "Menino do Bairro Negro" is particularly memorable. Perhaps Amazon should consider adding a sixth star to its ratings.

There is a "Limited Edition" version of this (at the time of writing available from Amazon) with an extra CD of Live Tracks from an appearance at the WOMAD festival in the UK. These are less "polished" than the (excellent) live Concerto en Lisboa but well worth the nominal extra price.

I admit fado is not for everyone taste, as opera is not as well or hard core heavy metal. Point is, this CD is a master piece on it's kind. If you are a fado fan, this CD is a must have. If you are sort of neutral to fado and would like to have at least a couple of CDs of fado, this CD is a must have. If you never heard about fado and you would like to listen at least one CD, this CD is a must have. Fado is not for old people. It's an acquired taste that you get with maturity.

I was hugely disappointed when I received this DVD. I have several CDs by MAriza, her voice is truly amazing. Unfortunately in this concert she is accompanied not only by her regular guitarists but also the Lisbon Sinfonietta and consequently the unique, intimate sound of fado is watered down by the orchestral backing. The whole concert is lacking in intimacy and spontaneity, with no real communication between musicians and audience.

A great CD from an accomplished Fadista - but the DVD will add a great deal to the pleasure. If you cannot watch the DVD [reviews of the DVD have been posted on Amazon] - this is still a must-have CD
