Revue de CD en français
author: Jazz Hot - Jean Szlamowicz
Yashmin
Charnet Abler, est une authentique
représentante de la bossa nova, ici
magnifiquement mise en valeur par
une rythmique discrète, sans contrebasse
ni batterie. Enrique Lopez
assure la toile de cordes mélodicorythmiques
qui sont l’âme de la
bossa-nova, David Kikoski assure sur
l’ivoire quelques solos fulgurants
mais sans exagération, toujours dans
le fil de la mélodie. Yashmin Charnet
apporte une vraie chaleur poétique,
subtile et sensuelle, une douceur qui
n’oublie jamais le rythme. Elle est
meilleure en portugais sur la musique
brésilienne que sur du George Harrison,
plus banal. Ross Schneider prête
son harmonica façon Toots pour des
couleurs bienvenues. Une belle
découverte.

Make sure you add Jobim, etc. to your collection!
author: Edward F. Nesta - Luxury Experience
Jobim, etc. was produced by Steve Messina on the Bossa Nova Music label. Lead singer, Yashmin Charnet-Abler hails from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil where at a young age she was performing the music of Brazilian greats such as Antonio Carlos Jobim, João Gilberto and Vinicius Moreas; in the late 70's she ‘found' her true inspiration to sing and attended Musica de Minas Escola Livre. She moved to New York in the early 90's and has become a mainstay on the music circuit singing her beloved bossa nova.
Jobim, etc. covers six Antonio Carlos Jobim classics such as: Só tinha de ser com você, Só Danço Samba, Por causa de você, Desafinado, Dindi, and Retrato em Branco e Preto, as well as selections from George Harrison, Roberto Cantoral, George Gershwin, Álvaro Carrillo, and Geraldo Pereira. This is an engaging and creative mix of tracks that Yashmin selected, which shows her versatility and range while she carries the Brazilian beat. With Yashmin, you can feel her Brazilian energy flowing through the tempo and tone of her voice; a great love of Brazilian music brought the musicians together, and coupled with Yashmin's vocals they created Jobim, etc. If you love Brazilian music, the bossa nova and the samba, then make sure you add Yashmin Charnet-Abler's Jobim, etc. to your collection; I have added Jobim, etc. to my Brazilian music collection, which numbers over 125 Brazilian artists.
