Ary Barroso com Silvio Caldas - Musica de Ary Barroso, Canta Silvio Caldas (1953)

Hello, good evening! zecalouro is a big fan of singers with potent voices, such like Francisco Alves and Angela Maria. He goes nuts with opera, especially when played loud. I decided to change his “playlist” today with this album, having in mind the potent voice of Silvio Caldas. My parrot did not like it very much, but I had a great entertainment listening to Ary Barroso music with Silvio Caldas interpretation. Silvio Caldas is a great singer; he has a perfect diction, really incredible. I could understand every single word of Ary Barroso lyrics performed by Silvio Caldas. This is a very old album released in 1953 and these songs seem to be composed only a decade ago, they are fresh and beautiful. Ary Barroso music did not decay across time. Let’s see.

This is Ary Barroso com Silvio Caldas – Musica de Ary Barroso, Canta Silvio Caldas (1953), for Radio, featuring eight Ary Barroso songs performed by Silvio Caldas. Little I known about this album, but I have the insight that Ary Barroso participates with his unmistakable piano, delivering groovy Samba in some tracks. I think you should give a try to this album, just to understand that Brazilian music did not started with Bossa Nova and was attractive many years before the movement. Tracks include:

01 - No Rancho Fundo (Ary Barroso / Lamartine Babo)
02 - Morena Boca de Ouro (Ary Barroso)
03 - Três Lágrimas (Ary Barroso)
04 - Faceira (Ary Barroso)
05 - Terra Seca (Ary Barroso)
06 - Maria (Ary Barroso / Luis Peixoto)
07 - Tú (Ary Barroso)
08 - Risque (Ary Barroso)
