	Unión de trópicos en Jalapa con la legendaria voz de Gal Costa
		Vestida toda de negro, elegante, con una sensualidad natural: bastaban unos discretos movimientos de cadera y una sonrisa para que Gal Costa arrancara suspiros a más de un hombre, en un teatro que más bien tenía ambiente de club nocturno, con una leve cortina de humo en el escenario y un sencillo juego de luces.
		Gal Costa, a quien se le conoció como la salvaje diva hippie del tropicalismo, se ha ido sofisticando a lo largo de sus 40 años de trayectoria artística, ha ido incorporando distintos géneros, y ahora hay quienes creen que se inclina demasiado al pop.
		La voz de Gal Costa temblaba mientras se preguntaba "¿qué haré sin ti?"; se elevaba aguda mientras exclamaba "¿dónde estás?", y al momento siguiente bajaba, en profundo dolor, "sin ti".

	E.J.N. - GAL COSTA
		The first show in São Paulo, "Arena Canta Bahia", wasn't exactly a hit but who ever saw it, will never forget it: Gal still called herself "Gracinha", was quiet and thoughtful, listening most of the time and being only listened when she sang Bossa Nova standards.
		Even then Gal already had the ability to turn any song immersed in prejudice, such as the wishy-washy romantic songs on the hit parades and the almost forgotten sambas by old composers, into dark jewels of unbelievable value for the cultural Brazilian soul.
		Gal gave her name to the dunes of a beach in Rio.

	Barbican - Gal Costa (Site not responding. Last check: )
		For this concert Gal Costa is reunited with two of her bandmates from the Tropicália period, awesome guitarist Lanny Gordin, and powerful drummer Tutty Moreno, together on the same stage for the first time in 30 years.
		Gal Costa came to prominence in the mid-1960s, when she became a member of the Tropicália movement alongside Gilberto Gil and Caetano Veloso.
		Over the years, the traits that clearly marked her out as a Tropicálista - a willingness to experiment with musical styles ranging from psychedelic rock to bossa nova, jazz and plaintive ballards - has sustained her appeal to both critics and audiences alike.

	Amazon.com: Cantar: Music: Gal Costa
		This album marks the second turning point in Gal Costa's career since her first album "Domingo" with Caetano Veloso, a Bossa Nova album.
		In this second turning point, Gal Costa returns to tenderness, to more elaborated performances and to lower keys in a clear disposition to gain a place among the great singers, notably beside the remarkable Elis Regina.
		Gal Costa's version of it is well worth the price of this CD.

		On a night of music boasting seductive imagery of the first order, the stately Brazilian diva Gal Costa served a finely sculptured set of bossa beauties associated with her self-proclaimed guru, Joao Gilberto, and timeless classics from the pen of Antonio Carlos Jobim.
		She was returning to the Blue Note to celebrate not only the release of her new DRG CD, "Live at the Blue Note," recorded last spring, but also the 25th anniversary of the Gotham jazz venue.
		Costa, with a dark grandeur in her delivery, boasts a voice textured with silk and honey.

	Autumn Samba - Starring: Gal Costa
		Gal Costa (See Ettore Stratta's Birthday Event) received a standing ovation tonight, on arrival, as this concert had been postponed for several months, due to her illness.
		Costa has a remarkable stage presence, and, in a lovely, long red dress, she immediately assumed the grandeur that Carnegie Hall can evoke onto its performers.
		Costa's renditions of Jobim's ballads and additional American and Brazilian standards were delivered with pathos and passion.

		Being one of the most significant voices in the Tropicália movement, Gal Costa celebrated her 30th anniversary with Acústico MTV, a live recording done in July 1997 as part of the MTV Brazil acoustic concert series.
		Gal, in particular, was instrumental in maintaining the idealism of Tropicália alive when Caetano Veloso was exiled in London.
		She is not breaking any new ground here, but Acústico MTV proves what solid career Gal Costa has maintained throughout these years.

	Luiz Brasil - Gal Costa - Mina D'agua do Meu Canto
		Esse CD da Gal foi feito depois do show "O Sorriso de Gato de Alice", dirigido por Gerald Thomas e que teve a maior polêmica em torno da Gal, porque aparecia os seios dela durante a performance.
		Gal estava com uma super banda da qual Luiz Brasil fazia parte tocando guitarra, violões, bandolim, violão tenor (ukulêle), percussão e vocal.
		O disco tem uma base muito coesa, e traz uma Gal feliz com seu repertório.

	Gal Costa \| Live At The Blue Note
		Aware that she had to be as minimalist as possible, she chose a simple backing quartet of guitar, bass, drums and saxophone.
		On this album, she invited the audience to sing along with her, and many Brazilians must have been in the audience, as the voices do not simply follow the melody, but actually sing the words with her.
		The album closes with “The Girl From Ipanema,” sung in English and Portuguese, and Ary Barroso’s “Brazil.” It is obvious that Costa seems to enjoy playing in a smaller venue (which she had never done before), and she gives a very relaxed performance.

		A beautiful Gal Costa record that isn't as crazy as her psychedelic recordings, but it more than makes up for it with some haunting arrangements by the likes of Caetano Veloso, Gilberto Gil, and Joao Donato.
		Gal sings some beautiful versions of tracks like Donato's "A Ra" (with extra lyrics by Caetano!), "Ate Quem Sabe", and "Flor De Maracuja", and Caetano's "Lua, Lua, Lua, Lua" and "Joia".
		Although this album isn't as crazy in the way that Gal's 1969 psychedelic albums are, it's got some very cool orchestral arrangements, and great small combo playing by the likes of Gilberto...

		Along with her friend Maria Bethânia, she became a political activist often coming into conflict with Brazil's military government when dissent in music was censored in 1968.
		Her next album, ''Legal'', was not as out-there as its predecessor, and a live album the following year again balanced smooth Brazilian sounds with heavy rock.
		Costa has recorded songs composed by a number of Brazil's most popular songwriters such as Tom Jobim, Ben, and Erasmo Carlos.
