Review by scoundrel Apr 16, 2004

The handiwork of Nicola Conte is all over Rosalia De Souza’s debut album, Garota Moderna. There are plenty of Italian jazz flourishes over the tracks, sprinkled on generously like freshly grated Parmesan cheese over a steaming bowl of pasta. De Souza’s voice is light and gentle, perfectly suited to the quick and easygoing rhythms that Conte lays down for her. A few tracks, like “Saudosismo,” go for a more relaxed attitude, rather than for a samba. A little more than half the tracks are remakes, but Conte shows that he’s comfortable arranging others’ tracks for maximum enjoyment. Garota Moderna is irrepressibly sunny, from “Bossa 31” to the beach-ready “Ipanema.” Plenty to enjoy here!
