Review

Singer Mafalda Arnauth is another enchanting princess to follow in the footsteps of fado queen Amália Rodrigues. Not as deep and operatic as Mariza, or as wistfully sensual as Cristina Branco, Arnauth's rich passionate voice falls somewhere in-between the two. Making her U.S. debut with Encantamento, her third album overall, Arnauth gracefully works through traditional material ably supported by José Elmiro Nunes on Portuguese guitar, Luis Oliveira on classical guitar and João Penedo on upright bass. She steps outside the fado tradition of using poetry for lyrics to write nine of the 15 songs, mostly in collaboration with Oliveira. Some of the originals are in the strict fado tradition of fate and tragedy, while others deviate into other thematic territory, and "Fado Arnauth" even has some interesting folk accents and a pop music sensibility. Arnauth also produces Encantamento, leaving no doubt that this fadista is a true keeper of the flame, and a singer who'll bring the music deep into the 21st century. --Tad Hendrickson
