Transfado : Anamar

Anamar : Transfado.
Songs with a latin and afro mood, blended with tango, milonga, morna, rumba, habanera.

Transfado is a gem in the Magnatune catalog by a cult figure in the Portuguese music scene. Simple acoustic accompaniment on piano, double bass and Portuguese guitar puts Anamar's smoky, passionate voice in the best possible light, in songs that are both vibrant, sultry, emotive, and cathartic. Fado songs are defined by their feeling of "saudade," a Portuguese term best translated as a genuine and intense yearning. Transfado has yearning to burn, but it's also a deeply sophisticated work with unexpected melodies and profound warmth. Ravishing.
