Review

Marco Figueiras Brazilliance spotlights his unique and intimate voice, blending originals and Brazilian jazz standards with lots of love. Brazilliance, the first recording by Marcos for Blue Toucan Music, is the result of that serendipitous meeting of musical minds. On it, we are treated to mellow yet swinging vocals by Marcos, backed by the elegant guitar of Paulo André and a dream team rhythm section of Hélio Alves (piano), Paulo Braga (drums), and Sergio Brandão (bass). Paulo André also provided the impeccable arrangements for all twelve of the tracks on this CD, four of which are brought to even greater heights by the sumptuous string arrangements of the renowned Eumir Deodato. As if these musical riches were not enough, the album is graced by the guest appearances of some of the finest soloists in Brazilian and American jazz: Claudio Roditi (trumpet), Hendrik Meurkens (harmonica) and Hiram Bullock (guitar). The musical roster is further enhanced by the tasteful percussion work of Mauro Refosco, and the sleek backing vocals of Kerry Linder and Luiz Simas.
