		Fado Em Mim is a must-have CD for world music lovers.

	Music : Fado Em Mim
		If the legendary singer Amália Rodrigues is the queen of fado, the national song genre of Portugal, this debut by Mariza announces her coronation as its crown princess of the 21st century.
		Mariza is an extraordinary figure who sings "Fado", the soul(ful) music of Portugal with a range of technical virtuosity and emotional authenticity that is breath-taking.
		Fado is also melodically and hamonically richer - it has tunes that you can hum, albeit with some tricky changes.

	The Cardinal Inquirer - Fado's New Diva
		She is the world's best- known singer of fado, a form of Portuguese music that, with its guitar-backing and soulful themes, is often compared to American blues and Argentine tango.
		Fado, which means fate or destiny, developed there in the 19th century, initially sung in bars and brothels by sailors and slaves who brought with them musical influences from all over the world.
		Fado's golden age was in the early 20th century and then fell out of favor until recently, existing only in isolated pockets such as the streets of Mouraria.

	NPR : Mariza, the New Diva of Fado
		Mariza has shot to the top of the fado world since her debut album, Fado em Mim, in 2001, and is poised to attract a larger audience with the release of her latest CD, Fado Curvo.
		Fado emerged from the brothels and taverns of Lisbon about 200 years ago, and were first sung by lonely sailors.
		She says singing was part of everyday life, and remembers going to fado houses when she was very young.

	Rock Paper Scissors - Mariza, Fado Em Mim (Times Square) - Press Release
		“Fado is an emotional kind of music full of passion, sorrow, jealousy, grief, and often satire.” Yet Fado differs from its musical cousins in its poetic mystery and its ability to fuse dichotomous traits: impossible pain and fervent joy, life’s cruelty with love’s intensity.
		At the very outset of her career, Mariza was being compared to one of the biggest icons of Fado: Amália Rodrigues.
		Fado em Mim has already reached silver status in Portugal—practically unheard of for a Fado album—and will likely reach gold in the coming weeks.

		The fado music is said to be liked by a few and detested by many, but once listened too, a certain kind of appreciation appears to the ear.
		The steps of the Fado are said to be a hop, a skip and a kick in 2/4 time with the soul of the dance being of despair (Coimbra - trovas being opposite).
		The Fado and its variations again became popular in the early 1900's along with all the Ragtime and early Jazz dances.

	FADO.org - Home Page
		Donald Cohen, a retired Los Angeles attorney and fado expert, says that although fado in its current form is about 200 years old, its roots go back to the 12th century to traditions of song and poetry brought by Provencal troubadours, the Moors who lived in Portugal, and the Jews.
		Fado is one of the most rewarding and least known genres in the world music spectrum.
		If her fado plays differently to the ear and eye, it has much to do with her varied influences, and the many paths she took to get here.

	BBC - World Review - Mariza, Fado em mim
		Her first CD was outstanding, Fado Curvo was extremely weak and a departure from pure fado, but her third album, Transparente, puts Fado em Mim in the shade.
		Everyone that hear Fado can be fascinated with it, but only Portugues can understand the real "alma do fado" (fado´s soul)and the feeling of "saudade" (a sorder like "nostalgy").
		After i was introduced into the music of "fado" i came to find out about its proper excistense in portugal on where they have what is called " Casas do Fado" these are the houses of fado on where you go to eat traditional portuguese food and while you eat you have live "fado".

	World Music Central - Mariza Fado Curvo
		Her latest release, Fado Curvo, referring to the curvy path of a fado (Portuguese laments often compared to flamenco or American blues), securely anchors Mariza's musical career along side the most revered fadistas including the late and esteemed Amelia Rodrigues, who also happens to be Mariza's de facto muse.
		The glamorous Mariza (think Grace Kelly) might seem like an overnight success to most onlookers, yet, the vocalist began singing fados at the ripe age of 5 and she was fully immersed in the fado tradition, often joining in improvised fados sung at her parents' restaurant in Mouraria, one of Lisbon's traditional neighborhoods.
		For instance, the words to Fado Curvo speak of happiness and furies, "In the temple that only belongs to the fado the soul is like a garden where the flowers dance sideways in the endless wind.

		Newcomers to the fado will quickly become familiar with the style from the plaintive crystal of Mariza's voice and her evocative guitar accompaniment, but her delivery occasionally recalls jazz or the blues.

	Portuguese Music
		If the legendary singer Amalia Rodrigues is the queen of fado, the national song genre of Portugal, this debut by Mariza announces her coronation as its crown princess of the 21st century.
		Deeply influenced by fado, contemporary, and traditional folk song, Pontes approached this recording nakedly, distilling its sound to that of strictly acoustic accompaniment, a bold move which allows her superbly crystalline vocals to weave the album's through-line.
		Amalia Rodrigues is the unchallenged queen of fado, the Portuguese equivalent of flamenco or blues, and one of the greatest singers on record.

		If you own "Fado em mim", her debut album, you'll want to buy this one for this track alone.

		Amalia Rodrigues is the unchallenged queen of fado - the Portuguese equivalent of flamenco or blues - and one of the greatest singers on record.
		The instrumentation is simple guitar and Portuguese mandolin, perfectly framing her aching laments and flowing melodies, like a gentler version of flamenco or a continental cousin of Cesaria Evora's morna.
		If the legendary singer Amalia Rodrigues is the queen of fado, the national song of Portugal, then Fado Em Mim, the debut by Mariza, announces her coronation as its crown princess in the 21st century.

	Gypsy's Music Reviews
		Though there are many fados that are instrumental, fado is mainly poetry set to music -- poetry that essentially expresses the Portuguese soul somewhat similar to the blues of the Mississippi delta or the rembetic music of Greece.
		Her first CD Fado em Mim lives up to the fanfare that has surrounded its release.
		Nonetheless, she feels that Amalia left a legacy of many great fados and in reverence to the diva; Portugal's young fado singers need to keep Amalia's repertoire alive and vital.

	Eye Weekly - Mariza's fashionable fado - 04.11.02
		Compared endlessly to American blues and original tango, fado is an evocative and highly melancholic music whose roots can be traced back to the early 19th century, when it flourished in Lisbon's working-class neighbourhoods.
		Chatting with Mariza, it becomes obvious that fado chose her and that the decision to make a career singing this mournful music wasn't hers.
		The word fado means destiny or fate, and to sing and play fado you must feel it.

		Fado (Fate) songs are are kind of Portuguese folk singing that blends folk with torch in a distinctive sound.
		The guitars strum like harps, the singing is brazen bright and the lyrics of the pain and joy of living.

		Well, now that I have finally discovered what Fado really is by listening to Mariza's Fado em mim, to say that I feel deprived would be a massive understatement.
		She reminded me slightly of Luz Casal (from Spain), but this musical style (fado, a type of Portuguese Flamenco) I was totally unaware of until today.
		Her first Cd "Fado Em Mim" quickly propelled her to the front of the international musical scene.

	CNN.com - Mariza - May 12, 2006
		Though she also sang soul and funk music, Mariza returned to fado to record her first album, "Fado em mim," in 2002, a collection of traditional songs produced by the acclaimed Jorge Fernando.
		Following the breakthrough success of "Fado em mim," 2004's "Fado Curvo" sold even better, while Mariza toured the world, performing in New York's Central Park and at the UK's Womad Festival, as well as to 30,000 crowds at home in Lisbon.
		Mariza's achievement has been in glamorizing and modernizing fado for a new generation while respecting and honoring its inherently conservative traditions and heritage.
