Product Description
Follow up to the acclaimed album 'Natural', in which Celso Fonseca soulfully revisited the very roots of pure bossa & samba, `Rive Gauche Rio' is the second international release by the Brazilian singer/guitarist who has been a regular collaborator of Gilberto Gil, Marisa Monte, Caetano Veloso and more.
'Rive Gauche Rio' features nine new Celso Fonseca compositions, two unusual covers (a re-interpretation of Irish singer-songwriter Damien Rice's "Delicate", a Portuguese version of French crooner Henri Salvador's "J'ai vu"), and a refreshing duet in Spanish with Urugayan singer and guitarist Jorge Drexler (who, won the 2005 Oscar for Best Song for his contribution to "Motorcycle Diaries", the Che Guevara biopic by Brazilian director Walter Salles).
The instrumention on this new album is fuller than on 'Natural' (several songs have a definite `band' feel, with drums, bass, a `60s-style Fender Rhodes as well as sparse woodwinds), but the atmosphere and mood of 'Rive Gauche Rio' is an extension of that of 'Natural': warm, inspired, elegant, sensual, and dominated by Celso's caressing voice and splendid guitar playing.
Personnel: Celso Fonseca - (guitar, vocals), Luiz Alves - (bass), Alexandre Fonseca - (drums), Marcelo Martins - (flutes), Jorjao Barreto - (Fender Rhodes), Walter Costa - (programming), Special guest: Jorge Drexler - (guitar, vocals) (7) and others
