5 out of 5 stars A great CD.......2000-02-04

Amaila is one of the best if not the best fado singer in the world. With her amazing voice she can move you through a set emotions like no one else. I does not matter if you know Portuguese or not, this CD transcends language. I would also recommend Dulce Pontes if you like this kind of music.

5 out of 5 stars Rodrigues is the queen of fado........1998-06-26

Fado is indescribably sad, full of "saudade," that elusive Portuguese concept rich in memory, longing and the feeling that the past will always keep some essential part of us. Some of that feeling is captured in North American country music, especially the work of Hank Snow; some folk tunes, notably the music of Tom Rush, also embody saudade. But Rodrigues' work is in a class by itself. She communicates a sadness, a longing that fills her soul as she sings fado numbers like "Coimbra." The Portuguese guitar -- sometimes accompanied by zither -- adds to the melancholy. It's lovely music that can stir an amazing mix of emotions, and even if you don't speak a work of Portuguese, with Rodrigues' crystal clear interpretations, you'll get the point.
