On her last album ‘Berimbaum’, Brazilian vocalist Paula Morelenbaum performs, in her own way, the legendary songs of Vinicius de Moraes, the poet of the bossa nova. Using the latest electronic production techniques, she gives the Brazilian tradition a young and contemporary sound. ‘Berimbaum is one of the best Brazilian albums of the year, similar to Bebel Gilberto’s Tanto Tempo, but surpassing it for production, compositions, and vocal power.’ (One Way Magazine).
