Content Introduction A borderless Portuguese female singer pays tribute to a pioneer of funky jazz! Carmen Souza, a Portuguese singer of Cape Verde descent, has captivated many fans with her soulful voice and jazzy musicality. Following her Japanese debut with her previous album "Cl?ology" (GLR-8035), she has now released a work dedicated to Horace Silver, a jazz musician/pianist who shares her Cape Verde roots. While the influence of her Cape Verdean father can be seen in Horace's songs, including the well-known jazz standard "Song for My Father," here Carmen and her partner, Theo Pascal, have reconstructed these songs by incorporating elements of Latin jazz, Afro jazz, and even music from Cape Verde and Brazil, adding light vocals that include Creole. A superb tribute album exploring the musical depths of Horace Silver! Includes Japanese liner notes and obi strip. Media reviews and more. A borderless female singer from Portugal pays tribute to the pioneer of funky jazz. (C)RS
