Description:
Vocals and guitar. On her first ever solo album, the Joan Gilberto inspired Brazilian thrush Rosa Passos leaves behind all but the essentials. In its sparseness Rosa cuts to the heart of the songs she chooses. Rosa, even at its most subdued, commands attention. One of the few bossa nova divas to stick with acoustic music, Passos strips classics and originals down to their bare essence on her brilliant new effort Rosa. |
