Sobre Todas As Coisas
(1991)
In my opinion, Zizi Possi is one of the finest
voices of contemporary Brazilian music. Her high-pitched, moody vocals are
always compelling. This 1991 recording represented a shift in her career: that's
when she decided to leave her usual label to be able to sing what she really
wanted and the way she wanted, with much more restrained arrangements than
before: here just piano, cello, charango and percussion. And the result is
really great, since Zizi's voice is so melodic that it doesn't need much
orchestration. The repertoire ranges between heartfelt ballads and more raucous
rhythms. Some of the best cuts are the exquisite cover of Chico Buarque's "Eu te
amo" and her very personal version of "Com que roupa", a Brazilian classic from
the 20s. --an Amazon reviewer
