(5 out of 5 stars)

"This 2008 CD, is Paula Morelenbaum's sophmore album, and a great one.

Here she pays homage primarily to several Brazilian songwriters from several decades ago, including George and Ira Gershwin as well, performing their songs with a fantastic Brazilian Jazz tone; giving new life to these great old songs.

Here Paula sings beautifully songs in Portuguese, English and a bit of Spanish; expanding her career big time.

Also, it's necessary to mention all of her guests for this amazing CD:

- Paula Morelenbaum / Vocals, Production
