This is another winner ('Nosso Mundo'='Our World') from the three gorgeous Brazilian women of Trio Esperanca, together with guest singers and musicians. 15 songs, most of them sung in perfect Portuguese, with 'Uma Bela Historia (La Boheme)' sung in French, 'So Lane Boushi' sung in Japanese, and as far as we can tell, there's Spanish on one or two songs. No matter-these women have such voices and such panache, they could be singing in Etruscan and we'd still be glued to the boom box! There is accompaniment on several songs, including piano, drums, Brazilian, Portuguese and Spanish guitar, accordion and various percussion, but it is like a garnish next to the entrŽe. The women's intonation and phrasing is perfect, they sing as one, multi-harmonied person, handling upbeat, driving latin rhythms with ease and zest. 15 songs, all of them tasty in their own right, like dishes at a Brazilian banquet. Beautiful teal liner notes. Highly recommended! Import
