Blossom Dearie Tribute



Here is a lovely song performed by the delicious and gifted singer Blossom Dearie.
Blossom Dearie (born in 1926 in East Durham, New York) is an American jazz singer. She is known for her distinctive, high-pitched, girlish voice. As a child Dearie studied classical piano but switched to jazz as a teenager. After high school Dearie moved to New York City to pursue her music career. Here she began singing in groups such as the Blue Flames (with the Woody Herman Orchestra) and the Blue Reys (with Alvino Rey's band) before launching her own solo career. In 1952 she moved to Paris and formed a vocal group, The Blue Stars. The group had a hit in France in 1954 with a French-language version of "Lullaby of Birdland". While in Paris, she met her future husband, the Belgian flautist and saxophonist Bobby Jasper. On her first solo album, released two years later, she plays the piano but does not sing. One of her most famous songs from that period is "The Riviera", written and composed by Cy Coleman and Joseph McCarthy, Jr. in 1956. Dearie's first recordings as a singer and pianist were made for Verve in the late 1950's and early 1960's, most often in a small trio or quartet setting. In 1962 she recorded a song for a radio commercial for Hires root beer. It proved very popular, so the LP "Blossom Dearie Sings Rootin' Songs" was released as a premium item that could be ordered for one dollar and a proof-of-purchase. In 1964 she recorded her best known album for Capitol Records, "May I Come In?", recorded, atypically for her, with an orchestra. During this same period Blossom performed frequently in New York supper clubs and honed her own distinctive style. In 1966 she made her first appearance at Ronnie Scott's club in London and quickly became a popular act. In 1974 Dearie established her own label, Daffodil Records, to allow her full control in the recording and distribution of her albums. Throughout her career Dearie has appeared on television, most notably giving her voice to the children's educational series "Schoolhouse Rock!". Many of her pieces in this series were written by her good friend, the jazz singer and composer Bob Dorough. Her distinctive voice and songs have been featured on the soundtracks of many films including "Kissing Jessica Stein", "The Squid and the Whale" and "The Adventures of Felix". She has also recorded with various musicians including Bob Dorough and Lyle Lovett. Dearie has continued to perform in clubs. As one of the last remaining supper club performers she still performs regular engagements in London and New York City.
Enjoy Blossom's refreshing voice!

Dulce Pontes Cancao Do Mar



Fui bailar no meu batel
Além do mar cruel
E o mar bramindo
Diz que eu fui roubar
A luz sem par
Do teu olhar tao lindo

Vem saber se o mar tera razao
Vem ca ver bailar meu coracao

Se eu bailar no meu batel
Nao vou ao mar cruel
E nem lhe digo aonde eu fui cantar
Sorrir, bailar, viver, sonhar...contigo

Camisa Amarela - Nara Leão


Camisa Amarela

Composição: Ary Barroso

Encontrei o meu pedaço na avenida de camisa amarela
Cantando a Florisbela, oi, a Florisbela
Convidei-o a voltar pra casa em minha companhia
Exibiu-me um sorriso de ironia
Desapareceu no turbilhão da galeria

Não estava nada bom, o meu pedaço na verdade
Estava bem mamado, bem chumbado, atravessado
Foi por aí cambaleando se acabando num cordão
Com um reco-reco na mão

Depois o encontrei num café zurrapa do Largo da Lapa
Folião de raça bebendo o quinto gole de cachaça
Isso não é chalaça!

Voltou às quatro horas da manhã mas só na quarta-feira
Cantando "A jardineira", oi, "A jardineira"
Me pediu ainda zonzo um copo d'água com bicarbonato
Meu pedaço estava ruim de fato pois caiu na cama e não tirou nem o sapato

Roncou uma semana
Despertou mal-humorado
Quis brigar comigo
Que perigo, mas não ligo!

O meu pedaço me domina
Me fascina, ele é o tal
Por isso não levo mal
Pegou a camisa, a camisa Amarela botou fogo nela
Gosto dele assim
Passou a brincadeira e ele é pra mim, meu senhor do bomfim

Gosto dele assim
Passou a brincadeira e ele é pra mim

Leny Andrade - Tributo a Durval Ferreira - Batida diferente



Homenagem a Durval Ferreira, autor de "Batida Diferente" e tantas outras músicas que foram sucesso na época da bossa-nova. Aqui ele se apresenta com Leny Andrade, no Rio de Janeiro, em junho de 2005.

17 de junho de 2007, Durval Ferreira não resistiu à doença que o afligia. Tinha 72 anos e estava internado há dez dias, com câncer, na Clínica São Carlos, no Rio.

Conforme consta do Dicionário Cravo Albim da Música Popular Brasileira, Durval Inácio Ferreira foi Instrumentista (violonista e guitarrista), Arranjador, Compositor e Produtor Musical.

Recebeu de sua mãe, bandolinista, as primeiras noções de violão, desenvolvendo, em seguida, sua própria técnica. Mais tarde, aperfeiçoou-se, a partir do contato com vários músicos, como Johnny Alf, Luiz Eça, João Donato, Antonio Carlos Jobim, Herbie Mann e Cannomball Adderley.

A cantora Leny Andrade é a principal responsável por manter o nome de Durval Ferreira na lembrança dos apreciadores da boa música. Leny fez, e ainda faz, muito sucesso interpretando suas composições "Batida diferente" (c/ Maurício Einhorn) e "Estamos aí" (c/ Maurício Einhorn e Regina Werneck).

Em junho de 2005 Durval Ferreira se apresentou no "Parque dos Patins", na Lagoa (RJ), ao lado de Leny Andrade, com Fernando Merlino ao piano, Adriano Giffoni no baixo, e Márcio Bahia na bateria.

Pra que discutir com madame?

Luciano Pavarotti sings "Caruso" by Lucio Dalla



El mérito de este video es de Donhaurraca.
(http://www.youtube.com/user/DonhaUrraca ).
Qui dove il mare luccica
e tira forte il vento
su una vecchia terrazza davanti al golfo di Sorrento
un uomo abbraccia una ragazza
dopo che aveva pianto
poi si schiarisce la voce e ricomincia il canto:

Te voglio bene assai
ma tanto tanto bene sai
e' una catena ormai
che scioglie il sangue dint' e' vene sai...

Vide le luci in mezzo al mare
pensò alle notti la in America
ma erano solo le lampare
e la bianca scia di un'elica
sentì il dolore nella musica
si alzò dal Pianoforte
ma quando vide la luna uscire da una nuvola
gli sembrò più dolce anche la morte
Guardò negli occhi la ragazza
quegli occhi verdi come il mare
poi all'improvviso uscì una lacrima
e lui credette di affogare.

Te voglio bene assai
ma tanto tanto bene sai
e' una catena ormai
e scioglie il sangue dint'e vene sai...

Potenza della lirica
dove ogni dramma e' un falso
che con un po' di trucco e con la mimica
puoi diventare un altro
Ma due occhi che ti guardano
così vicini e veri
ti fanno scordare le parole
confondono i pensieri.

Così diventò tutto piccolo
anche le notti la in America
ti volti e vedi la tua vita
come la scia di un'elica.
Ah si, e' la vita che finisce
ma lui non ci pensò poi tanto
anzi si sentiva felice
e ricominciò il suo canto:

Te voglio bene assai
ma tanto tanto bene sai
e' una catena ormai
che scioglie il sangue dint'e vene sai...
Te voglio bene assai
ma tanto tanto bene sai
e' una catena ormai
che scioglie il sangue dint'e vene sai...

Here, where the sea shines
and the wind howls,
on the old terrace beside the gulf of Sorrento,
a man embraces a girl
he wept after,
then clears his throat and continues the song:

I love you very much,
very, very much, you know;
it is a chain by now
that melts the blood inside the veins, you know...

He saw the lights out on the sea,
thought of the nights there in America,
but they were only the fishermen's lamps
and the white wash astern.
He felt the pain in the music
and stood up from the piano,
but when he saw the moon emerging from a cloud
death also seemed sweeter to him.
He looked the girl in the eyes,
those eyes as green as the sea.
Then suddenly a tear fell
and he believed he was drowning.

I love you very much,
very, very much, you know,
it is a chain by now
that melts the blood inside the vein you know...

The power of opera,
where every drama is a hoax;
with a little make-up and with mime
you can become someone else.
But two eyes that look at you,
so close and real,
make you forget the words,
confuse your thoughts,
So everything became small,
also the nights there in America.
You turn and see your life
through the white wash astern.
But, yes, it is life that ends
and he did not think so much about it
on the contrary, he already felt happy
and continued his song:

I love you very much,
very, very much, you know,
it is a chain by now
that melts the blood inside the veins, you know...

I love you very much,
very, very much, you know,
it is a chain by now
that melts the blood inside the veins, you know...
