  Misia - A portrait by Carmen Castillo
So began Misia's rite of passage, the awakening of senses, the call of the theatre´s footlights and wings, the dream of a shining knight to save her from the claws of a monster, a terrifying creature born of her feeling of neglect.
Misia´s courage, thoroughness and extravagance of lifestyle can only be understood in the context of these two women - the first and second ant, as she sees them and herself: three hard-working ants, one after the other, perpetually searching for the Absolute of love and art.
Misia and her line of free women, daring to live in defiance of convention, outside the corsets of musical genres and beyond the safe, smooth walls of middle-class order.

MISIA, unlike many come-and-go artists in the Japanese music industry, has managed to take a strong hold on the music scene in Japan.
MISIA discovered her talent as a vocalist while sitting in on one of her older sister's private music lessons.
Later on she won a local talent contest in her hometown of Fukuoka, and was recognized by BMG as an up-and-coming talent.

In 1905, when Misia was married to Alfred Edwards, Ravel joined them for a memorable holiday on their luxury yacht Aimèe, in the immediate aftermath of the Prix de Rome scandal.
Misia was a noted beauty who was painted many times: by Toulouse-Lautrec for a poster for La revue blanche in 1896, in which she is shown as a skater; by Bonnard and Vuillard; and, according to her memoirs, 7 or 8 times by Renoir, including a portrait (1904) which is now in the Tate Gallery.
Misia's colourful life, and its rapports with Mallarmé, Proust, Cocteau, Colette, Picasso, Massine, Serge Lifar, Stravinsky, Satie, Poulenc, and Coco Chanel among many others, are vividly told in the biography Misia, by Arthur Gold and Robert Fizdale (New York, Knopf, 1980).

I discovered Misia's music a few years ago when I bought her album Paixoes Diagonais (based only on a review I read in a magazine).
There is more emotion in her performance than with nearly any other fadista today, leaving the listener with a direct feeling of the anguish and pain she is conveying.
Misia and the musicians have breathed new life into classic fado, and in the process have shown that classic fado, when performed with conviction and emotion, is a powerful art form.

 Canto - Misia - Music Reviews   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
Misia, like her native Portugal, is reverent to tradition as well as mindful of the future.
Her love for fado is not without a contemporary flair, and although she is perhaps the most celebrated current interpreter of the genre, her work has received an equal amount of praise and outrage.
Inspired by composer Carlos Paredes, Misia brings in a classical string quintet, resulting in a serendipitous blend of modern drama that transcends nationalities.

 NPR : Misia, Portugal's Melancholy Muse
Misia says she first heard fado music growing up in Oporto, Portugal.

When Style Misia learned both joints were made on a TR-808 drum machine at a later age, it sparked an interest in producing his own MC tracks.
As a son of a Guamanian mother and Mexican father, he was thrown into a musical upbringing when his father played guitar with his band in their garage.
When asked to describe his style as an artist as well as a producer, Style Misia says, “My lyrics leave an everlasting impression and you’ll never be able to say that was a ‘Style Misia beat’ because I hit ‘em at right, left, and center field.

While you're listening to beautiful pieces like "Xaile de Silêncio" and more folkloric dance gems ("Duas Luas"), it would be wise to educate yourself about the source of the music via the extensive liner notes.
Portuguese singer Misia's fifth album (though only her second American release) moves away from the traditional fado of her earlier albums into a more electric and varied sound.
Usually this is a really bad sign that means the artist is trying to break the U.S. pop market through a watered-down, Americanized version of what had made them interesting in the first place.

 BW Online | July 8, 2002 | Misia
Indeed, Misia, whose name is derived from the words "Asian" and "Messiah," is one of the most bankable stars in Japan's $6.5 billion music industry.
In a sign of her drawing power, state-run broadcaster NHK made Misia's song Never Ending Story a de facto national anthem by using it as the theme for its coverage of the 2002 Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City.
Misia's big break came during a stint as a business major at Seinan Gakuin University in Fukuoka, when she won a local talent contest.
