This whole album can be most aptly described as brilliant.
Although the musical line-up is relatively simple, the music is amazingly rich and sophisticated in melodic content.
There are almost no weak moments and each and every bit of the songs have timeless and uplifting aura that encapsulates you from the very beginning.
The vocals by Teresa Salgueiro is a seminal example of how poetic lyrics can transcend beyond their inherent rendition.
Along with flawless orchestration which overcomes the intricacies of merging strong instrumental content with female vocal, Madredeus excels in conveying the melanchonic mood of Portugal even for those who don`t speak Portugese.
The overall effect is, however, universal and ethereal...
