Tranquilamente
by Vanessa Bumagny
An original bossa, rare and special in the way it is performed and composed, with beautiful female vocals.
Vanessa was born in Sao Paulo, Brazil, of Portuguese and Russian parents. She had a classical background and sang Mozart in a church choir at school. She was drawn to the country music of NE Brazil and started a forro (popular music from that region) band in the 90s. She also collaborated with Chico Cesar (whose powerful track 'Mama Africa' features in this album) and went on to develop her unique style of 'salsa-bossa', as shown in 'Tranquilamente'.
