Some would say it means a yearning or longing, ░█ █░ others that it conveys melancholy and nostalgia. Whichever, this ░█ █░ CD is full of saudade! ░█ █░ ░█ █░ Kerry Linder, a native of Curacao (the largest island in the ░█ █░ Netherlands Antilles), invites you to 'sail away' to a mythical ░█ █░ place with a collection of sensuous, soft, and gently swinging ░█ █░ melodies. "Growing up in Curacao exposed me to the rich traditions ░█ █░ of the Afro-Caribbean culture and music played an important part ░█ █░ in my life," says Kerry. ░█ █░ ░█ █░ Her father, Felix Linder, is an accomplished concert violinist who ░█ █░ played for many years with a popular quartet on the island and now ░█ █░ resides in New York. Kerry's versatility is demonstrated as she ░█ █░ moves effortlessly between English and Portuguese. "I use language ░█ █░ to convey the passion of the lyrics and to heighten the melodies ░█ █░ of Paulo Andre Tavares' sensitive arrangements." Paulo Andre, the ░█ █░ guitarist accompanying Kerry, is an accomplished arranger and ░█ █░ composer who regularly performs on the professional circuit in ░█ █░ Brazil. This CD bears witness to his love of various musical ░█ █░ styles, alternating between the old and the new with undertones of ░█ █░ bossa, jazz, and blues. For Paulo Andre, improvisation is a form ░█ █░ of composition. ░█ █░ ░█ █░ Kerry is joined by percussionist Mauro Refosco, who has recorded ░█ █░ with David Byrne and The Lounge Lizards; bassist David Finck; ░█ █░ drummer Helio Schiavo; cellist Erik Friedlander; harmonica-vibes ░█ █░ player Hendrik Meurkens, who has appeared on several Brazilian ░█ █░ jazz recordings since the early 1980s; trumpeter Michael Philip ░█ █░ Mossman, Head of the Jazz Graduate Program at Queens College; ░█ █░ saxophonist and flutist Paulo Levi, who was recently on tour with ░█ █░ Bebel Gilberto; tenor saxophonist and clarinetist Anat Cohen; ░█ █░ trombonist Clark Gayton, who plays with Sting; and accordionist ░█ █░ Bob Curto û- all highly acclaimed musicians in their own right and ░█ █░ an integral part of the New York jazz scene. ░█ █░ ░█ █░ The CD kicks off with Kerry's original composition and title ░█ █░ track, "Sail Away With Me", which is based on a poem that she ░█ █░ wrote on the eve of the first anniversary of the 9/11 tragedy. "I ░█ █░ started to put down my feelings on paper and realized that what ░█ █░ people need is music -û beautiful music, soothing music -- that ░█ █░ will take them to a better place." The lyrics are about a mythical ░█ █░ place and there are references to various well-known songs from ░█ █░ Jobim standards. The mood is enhanced by the plaintive tenor sax ░█ █░ of Paulo Levi and the unusual sound effects created by David Finck ░█ █░ on the upright bass (whales) and Eric Freidlander on cello ░█ █░ (seagulls). ░█ █░ ░█ █░ The instantly recognizable bossa nova classic, "Deixa" (Let Me), ░█ █░ was written by two Brazilian legends, the guitarist Baden Powell ░█ █░ and poet/lyricist, Vinicius de Moraes. This version is pure jazz ░█ █░ bossa and listen for the clever segue of another Baden ░█ █░ composition, "Berimbau." Notice also the sultry interplay between ░█ █░ the trombone and tenor sax at the end. "This song is even more ░█ █░ special as Helio Schiavo, who was Baden Powell's drummer for many ░█ █░ years, is playing with us." ░█ █░ ░█ █░ "Adeus Batucada," is a swinging samba featuring Mauro Refosco's ░█ █░ playful and improvisational percussive beat. Listen for the old ░█ █░ fashioned typewriter keys being struck and the squeaks of the ░█ █░ cuica (a small friction drum with a thin stick inside attached to ░█ █░ the drumskin). ░█ █░ ░█ █░ "That's All" An American classic, is played as a spirited bossa ░█ █░ which features the percussive harmonica playing of Hendrik ░█ █░ Meurkens. It almost sounds like the cuica and is pure magic! ░█ █░ ░█ █░ "Inquietacao" was written by the legendary composer Ary Barroso in ░█ █░ 1935. Barroso is known for his elaborate harmonies and beautiful ░█ █░ sambas that praise the beauty and richness of Brazil --- Kerry's ░█ █░ sensitive rendition is very much in the style of the old ░█ █░ samba-cancao. "We recorded it alternating between the samba and ░█ █░ baiao (a northeastern song style)." ░█ █░ ░█ █░ "Song For My Father" was composed by Horace Silver in 1964 and ░█ █░ dedicated to his father who was of Cape Verdean descent.. It is ░█ █░ played as a partido alto (type of urban samba with short refrains ░█ █░ that singers follow with improvised verses) and Kerry's duet-like ░█ █░ scatting adds an interesting dimension. ░█ █░ ░█ █░ "Language and Love" is a splendid bossa number composed by Joyce.. ░█ █░ Replaying this tract, you will find it more invigorating each ░█ █░ time. It is a personal favorite! ░█ █░ ░█ █░ "St. Judy's Comet" is one of Paul Simon's lesser-known songs. This ░█ █░ rendition is played as a simple baiao, featuring syncopated melody ░█ █░ and instrumental refrains in short arpeggios. Bob Curto's ░█ █░ accordion playing is evocative of forro, another musical style ░█ █░ that is a variation of the baiao. There is also a touch of the ░█ █░ blues and country in Paulo Andre's chordal work. Listen for ░█ █░ Mauro's berimbau (an indigenous instrument which consists of a ░█ █░ wooden bow with a metal string and gourd resonator). ░█ █░ ░█ █░ The classic samba, "Manha de Carnaval" (Morning of Carnival) was ░█ █░ composed by Luiz Bonfa as the theme to the 1959 film Black ░█ █░ Orpheus. This version is given a contemporary feel and the lyrics ░█ █░ are soft and sinuous. ░█ █░ ░█ █░ The brilliant arrangement of Billie Holiday's "God Bless the ░█ █░ Child" is enhanced by Kerry's serene and sultry blues bossa style. ░█ █░ "I Don't Know," as Kerry explains, is appealing to the ░█ █░ cross-cultural influences in this CD., "I wanted to record this as ░█ █░ I felt that there was a real Brazilian feeling in the melody. It ░█ █░ lends itself easily to this musical genre and we have recorded it ░█ █░ as a baiao." ░█ █░ ░█ █░ The final track, "As Time Goes By", is a surprising jazz/bossa ░█ █░ number showcasing the remarkable guitar playing of Paulo Andre. ░█ █░ Have you ever heard a bossa version of this song? It certainly is ░█ █░ a first for me! ░█ █░ ░█ █░ So relax, listen and enjoy the journey as you sail away with ░█ █░ Kerry. ░█ █░ ░█ █░ Lorig Maranjian ░█ █░ Contributing Writer, Latin Beat Magazine ░█ █░ London ░█ █░ ░█ █░ ░█ █░ For more information: ░█ █░ http://www.bluetoucanmusic.com/sail.html ░█ █░ ░█ █░ Respect the artists. ░█ █░ Support their work. ░█ █░ If you liked this CD, buy it. ░█ █░ ░█ ██▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄ ▄ ▄█▄▄▄ ▄▄ ▄ ▄▓▄ ▄ ▄▄ ▄▄▄█▄ ▄ ▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄██ ██▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄ ▄ ▄█▄▄▄ ▄▄ ▄ ▄▓▄ ▄ ▄▄ ▄▄▄█▄ ▄ ▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄██ ██▀ ▄ ▀ ▀ ▀ ▄ ▀██ █▌ ▀▓▀ ▄▄▓█▄▄ ▄▄▓█▄▄ ▀▓▀ ▐█ ██▄ ▄▄████████▄ A T T E N T I O N ▄████████▄▄ ▄██ █░██████████▀▀█▓▌▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▐▓█▀▀██████████░█ █░ ▀▀▓██▀▀ █ █ ▀▀██▓▀▀ ░█ █░ ░█ █░ CHROMANCE IS CURRENTLY LOOKING FOR DEDICATED RIPPERS AND ░█ █░ HARDWARE SUPPLIERS FROM ALL AROUND THE GLOBE. ░█ █░ IF YOU FEEL LIKE YOU ARE THE ONE FOR US, PLEASE CONTACT AN OP AT ░█ █░ #CHR ON EFNET, OR EMAIL US FOR AN APPLICATION FILE. ░█ █░ ░█ █░ IRC : #chr [EFNET] ░█ █░ WWW : CLOSED. ░█ █░ Email : [email protected] ░█ █░▀ ▀▀ ▀▀▀ ▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀ ▀▀▀ ▀▀ ▀░█ █░▀ ▀▀ ▀▀▀ Logo by creepah -Layout by G-Childz and MistahWax ▀▀▀ ▀▀ ▀░█ ▀▀ ▀▀ ▀▀▀ ▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀ ▀▀▀ ▀▀ ▀▀
