What's truly awesome about her (and I am getting close to owning all her albums)is that not only is she a talented singer and nylon guitarist, she also has written a lot of the songs on her albums. Some of them sounded so classic, I assumed they were older songs by established brazilian artists, only to read the album credits and realize she authored them. Amazing, amazing talent.

I had to order most of the CDs straight from Japan. It's a shame they are not more available, so there is a bit of a wait for each one. A wait well worth it, because on each of her albums, they read like a whose who of Brazilian artists...as well as the talented kids of the original masters....the "sidemen" she has are the cream of the crop. The last names alone, Jobim, Caymi, etc...if you know about brazilian music...those names mean something.
