The Rhythm of Samba ...

A small disk, a big surprise
EP The Rhythm of Samba, Camilla Inês explores his
versatility and leaves the listener with like want more

The four-track EP "The Rhythm of Samba" surprises those who know Camilla through "Jazzmine" his first album. Here, standards like "Speak Low" and "Cry Me a River" earned a delicious touch of Brazilianness that alone justified the rewriting by a rookie, music already so well known in so many great voices. Now, it's like she percorresse the other way, starting from very Brazilian ground toward American jazz elements.

If "Jazzmine" suggested half-light and indoors, "The Rhythm of Samba" is more sun heat fireplace, refers to light and breeze. This is evident from the corner of Camilla Agnes, more open, sometimes more torn, coming to remind young Elza Soares in suingada (and high point of the disc) with the song "Talvez Eu Te Encontre Por Aí" her partnership with Roberto Menescal. Or the track that gives title to the work, a samba-jazz signed by Jorge Camargo and Gladir Cabral, who bears the name of EP "The Rhythm of Samba".

Of Gladir there is another delightful find in the short repertoire, "O Cartola Falou" whose lyrics make an interesting game ideas with lyrics and titles of classic samba of Rio's master. And J. Evaristo Neto is the author of the fourth track (second on the disc order), "Melhor Entender" a samba-song that leans towards line elbow pain and appears as a counterpoint in the high spirits of "The Rhythm of Samba".

Cristóvão Bastos (piano), João Lyra (guitar), Oswaldo Amorim (acoustic bass), Misael Barros (drums and percussion and production), Moisés Alves (flugelhorn) and Carlos Pial (cuíca and deaf) form a sharp team to support for the singer navigate with ease on this trip. Incidentally, the camaraderie was around production, made independently and based more on friendship than in figures. This "great collective effort to promote good music" as Camilla Inês sets. The mixing was made by the experienced Vitor Farias and mastering with Ricardo Garcia.

He was born "The Rhythm of Samba", which has only a "defect: it's too good to be so short. But considering the mishaps of an independent production, it is already enough to make the joy of a legion of admirers that only grows as Camilla Inês finds spaces to expose your music.

This CD was produced by Camilla Inês, Ed Staudinger and Misael Barros.
The name of the CD is "Jazzmine" wanted to remember the origin of jazz, jasmine. It was created in the visual language of 40 and 50 years. The repertoire speaks of love as it is a universal language and people look for their lives!

The CD contained seven songs altogether. Five jazz classics such as: Speak Low (Kurt Weill / Ogden Nash), Tenderly (Walter Gross / Jack Lawrence), In a Sentimental Mood (Duke Ellington / Irving Mills / Manny Kurtz), My Funny Valentine (Lorenz Hart / Richard Rodgers) and Cry Me a River (Arthur Hamilton). All in a language and contemporary and with the influence of hits from the 70 and 80.

The CD also pays tribute to one of the geniuses of Brazilian music, Johnny Alf, with an unprecedented arrangement for the song "Eu ea Brisa" and also brings a new song called "Indecision", written by Veralúcia Sampaio, my mother , who initiated me in the good references of Brazilian music. This song brings a musical language more João Donato.

Participated in the CD the musicians in my band, Jazzmine Band, as Ed Staudinger (organ), Wallace Seixas (semi-acoustic guitar), Rafael Silva (tenor sax), Fabinho Costa (trumpet), Ricardinho Paraíso (acoustic bass) and Misael Barros (drums).

Jazzmine The CD is being mastered at Studio Magic Master, in Rio de Janeiro, Ricardo Garcia, an expert in mastering in Brazil. Ricardo Garcia mastered to great artists such as Caetano Veloso, Joao Bosco, Leila Pinheiro and now for Camila Ines. All to have the best quality for the public. This is my biggest requirement, quality work. They might say they did not like the style, but will not be able to say that the work has no quality.

about Camilla Inês....



Camilla Inês, not just another jazz singer... The experience is just unforgettable. Camilla Inês' velvet voice provides unique interpretation of great songs by great composers. Love is her favorite theme which she sings with full passion. To her, singing is the art of using the voice as a musical instrument. Born in a family of musicians, that singer of just 4.9 feet take up the whole theatre when she is on stage interpreting beautiful songs by Duke Ellington, Cole Poter and Nat King Cole. With no intention to create controversy with Carmem Miranda's fan club, Camilla is our newest “little notable one”. You need to see – actually, listen to – in order to believe. But that girl's velvet voice was not a gift from nature. She studied hard to achieve the level she is on. Camilla is perfectionist and, above everything, she respects the ears of her demanding audience. The applauses and request for bis that she gets at the end of each presentation is a result of lots of effort and dedication. Even the ones that do not have much affinity with jazz or prefer different rhythms will not be disappointed if listened to "in a sentimental mood, I can see the stars come through my room" on the melodious voice of Camilla Inês. But "Speak low" is, for sure, the highest point of her presentation. That is when she pulls out sighs and emotional glances of the entire audience.
