Mariza in Rolling Stone
B.B. King says we need blues music now more than ever. So maybe it's time to pool global resources. Mariza is the reigning voice of fado, Portugal's weep–in–your–wine music. Her latest sets her majestic, unbowed alto over traditional floor–pacing rhythms, alongside the shivering timbres of Portuguese guitar and jazzy–blue piano. The music's saudade — fado's animating spirit, which roughly translates as "sad yearning" — transcends its Portuguese verses. And its indomitable soul gets English expression in a sweet reading of the Charlie Chaplin composition "Smile," a reminder of music's pan–national healing power.
Mariza nominated for Songlines Awards
Mariza Best album of 2008 Songlines & Sunday Times
>> Terra is one of the best albums of 2008 of Songlines: “It’s hard to not make this a pick of the year.” Songlines>> Terra is one of the best albums of 2008 of Sunday Times: ”The fado queen stylishly incorporates a touch of jazz and Cape Verde’s version of Saudade.” Sunday Times - UK
Mariza, Barbican, November 1 2008:
”Mariza held the Barbican’s audience in the palm of her hand from start to finish. The reigning queen of fado exited after nearly three hours of perfect music.” Songlines - UK

Muziek
Mariza: Terra
- Door Frans van Leeuwen
- 28 oktober 2008 00:00
Zo horen we haar op deze cd met Tito Paris in de Kaapverdische morna Beijo de Saudade, in duet met de formidabel uithalende flamencozanger Concha Buika en in enkele solostukken waarop zonder moeite stijlvol zou kunnen worden gedanst.
Dit alles dankzij begeleiders uit verschillende hoeken, onder wie
Sting-gitarist Dominic Miller, slagwerker Horacio Hernandes, de Cubaanse
pianist Chucho Valdes en trompettist Carlos Sarduy. Maar veel moois is
gewoon gebleven; de zangeres zingt nog altijd louter in het Portugees de met
zorg uitgekozen teksten die gewagen van de zee, soul (alma), fado en
melancolía.
Mariza heeft over de hele wereld getoerd en ontdekt dat er meer is dan Lisboa en Coimbra en de daar ontstane fado die ze als geen ander beheerst. Op Terra doet ze verslag van haar ontdekkingsreis en laat ze nog eens horen dat ze behalve over een heldere, ver dragende stem over buitengewoon goede oren beschikt. In het moeilijke Pequeñas Verdades van gitarist Javier Limón 4, de producer van deze cd, blijft ze loepzuiver.
