Our Take

In the realm of classical music, there are few figures as influential and enigmatic as Ernesto Nazareth. Known for his pioneering work in blending Brazilian rhythms with classical structures, Nazareth's impact on music cannot be overstated. And now, his seminal album "Portrait of Rio", as interpreted by the talented Clelia Iruzun, captures the essence of Brazil in all its glory.

From the moment the needle hits the groove, Iruzun's delicate fingers glide across the keys, breathing new life into Nazareth's compositions. With a deftness that can only be described as magical, she effortlessly navigates the intricate syncopations and vibrant melodies that define Nazareth's work. Tracks like "Odeon" and "Apanhei-te, Cavaquinho" come alive under Iruzun's expert touch, transporting the listener to the bustling streets of Rio de Janeiro.

But it's not just Iruzun's technical prowess that shines on this album. Her emotional depth and interpretative skills bring an added layer of depth to Nazareth's music, making each note feel like a whispered secret or a shared memory. Whether you're a die-hard fan of classical music or a casual listener looking for something new, "Portrait of Rio" is a must-listen.

In conclusion, Clelia Iruzun's interpretation of Ernesto Nazareth's music on "Portrait of Rio" is nothing short of a revelation. With her exceptional talent and deep connection to the material, she has crafted a masterpiece that transcends time and genre. Don't sleep on this album - it's a true gem in the world of classical music.
