专辑介绍:
FADO属于葡萄牙的民族音乐，又叫欧洲蓝调，曲风都是很忧伤哀婉的，其基本表现形式与Flamenco类似，人声与吉他的搭配，同样是十九世纪开始在都会区的餐馆中逐渐茁壮，Fado之意和英语的「Fate」(命运) 相同，因此歌词充满了悲剧性的宿命观，曲风也偏向哀怨伤感，晚近的Fado则受了流行音乐的影响，在乐器编制上加入小提琴、大提琴、手风琴、钢琴甚至弦乐四重奏的音色，情感诉求也有显着的改变。
出生於1972年的克莉丝提娜布兰柯（Cristina Branco）是目前葡萄牙境内最炙手可热的女歌手，从小就对各式音乐感到兴趣，举凡是流行、民谣或爵士，都是她涉及的领域，但她钟爱的还是来自家乡的「Fado」。
乐评家赞赏她为「Fado新声」，认为她将『Fado』中最原始最美的地方完全地保留下来，并且用现代的编曲给予这这歌曲美丽的外衣，加上克莉丝提娜富有生命力的歌声，为传统与现代搭起了最好的沟通桥梁，于是轻轻松松地捕获了新生代乐迷传统音乐支持者的心，成为了葡萄牙境内家喻户晓的女歌手。
Cristina Branco's stature as the queen of new fado might have been eclipsed by the arrival of Mariza, but in some ways that's proved a blessing. It's freed her to pursue her own path without the weight of expectation on her. The spare arrangements keep the focus on her gorgeously luminous voice, and there are no real musical changes from her last album. She's still nibbling away at the edges of the genre, bringing in touches of blues and jazz, and working her way into Braziliana on Vinícius de Moraes' "Sonnet of Separation." Where she takes real chances are with the material, whose focus is on the facets of sexuality. Ten of the 14 songs come from the pens of her husband and bandleader, Custodio Castelo, with many lyrics by Portuguese poet David Mourao-Ferreira, although even William Shakespeare gets in on the act for one song, "Se a Alma Te Reprova." The juxtaposition of Branco's pure voice with such frank material makes for an odd combination, bringing a kind of glorious innocence to the proceedings. There's a wealth of emotion here, lovingly and sensually presented, making for a glorious package. -- by Chris Nickson
