"Casa" is the Portuguese word for "house." It's also the title of this melodic and moving tribute to Antonio Carlos Jobim by the Oscar® and Grammy award-winning pianist-composer Ryuichi Sakamoto, Brazilian cellist Jaques Morelenbaum, and his vocalist wife, Paula. The Morelenbaums, who cofounded Quarteto Jobim-Morelenbaum, both worked with the maestro, and almost all of the tracks here were recorded in Jobim's Rio home. The CD contains fluid and florid renditions of bossa nova-era classics from the Jobim canon, from "Amor em Paz"--with Jobim's son Paulo on guitar--and "Bonita" to "Vivo Sonhando." It also unveils rare songs like "Chanson pour Michelle," a short and sweet composition written for a soap opera, and a never-before-heard work, "Tema para Ana," an intimate piano/cello duet. Sakamoto's spare and splendid pianisms ring from Jobim's piano. Morelenbaum's singing cello tones complement his wife's angelic Portuguese and English vocals. Together this talented trio--with occasional accompaniment by percussionist Marcos Suzano, guitarist Luiz Brasil, vocalist Ed Motta, and bassist Zeca Assumpçao--beautifully exposes the French influences of Satie, Ravel, and Chopin in Jobim's music. --Eugene Holley, Jr.

Celestial music - .......2007-05-07

My Profile: 43 yo - no music qualifications whatsoever-

I got this fine cd last year in my first time in Buenos Aires.. though my trip was for widenning my musical horizons.. what can I said that has not been adequately commented by more knowledable reviewers than I?.. the music is serene, celestial, non-strident...he piano, the cello and that voice!! you know you are prividledged in life to have a chance to comtemplate on this type of beauty... whatever scars we have in the soul and body, take a moment to soothe yourself..

Gentle Magic to Free Your Soul.......2007-03-28

I just love love love this CD. Everything about it is so artfully rendered, it takes my soul away to gently float free in a most beautiful place. Ms. Morelenbaun has a voice that, of all female vocals in the world, is often my most favorite to hear. Virtually no vibrato, just clean and clear exquisite and delicate classic femininity. Mr. Morelenbaum, Mr. Sakamoto and all supporting musicians provide the most sensitively interwoven instrumental skills that there could ever be; they perfectly ride, complement and contribute to the magical musical moment that is always now, in flowing pieces such as these. Of course, the ineffably beautiful heart and soul of the basic songs to start with are indispensible (thank you now and forever, o-most revered JC Jobim!). Honestly, this CD places in my top 10 of all time, especially now, in my more relaxed and gentle mature years... ;)

Some of the Best Music ever!.......2007-02-03

I came by the Morelenbaums by 'A Day in New york'. It was love at first
sound. I checked out to see if anything else was available. I found 'Casa'
and immediately ordered it. It has been in my CD player since I got it.
This from a Classical music buff and a college music degree. This music
defies description (I do like bossa nova and Jobim especially). This group is so together, it sounds like the members know exactly what each
other is thinking. It is all so right that it appears precision and class
like this is not possible. Paula's voice has a simple (without vibrato) beauty that is mesmerizing. The arrangements are exquisite. The Cello and piano never over-do and the whole is something you must hear to believe. I can only add to this - GET IT!!

jazzman.......2007-01-17

Absolutely fabulous renditions of Jobim. Paula's voice is so pure and
gentle, along with Jacques' cello gliding through the sketches. And the
pianist Sakamoto is perfect as well. I just love this cd. I quickly
obtained their other Jobim tribute cd "A Day in New York" (the Japanese
enhanced version with 5 bonus tracks), which is even further proof that
there is a musical heaven on earth. So sophistocated, cool, and gentle.
I eagerly await their next release. 5 million stars.

absolutely amazing...........2006-01-16

So much to say about this wonderful recording. As I write this, there are 27 reviews posted for Casa and not one of them is less than 4 stars, with the vast majority as 5 stars. That speaks volumes in itself. But the quality of the words and the thought behind them is truly a tribute to Jobim. If we were all lucky enough to have him with us now, the words of these reviews would surely either make him smile or bring tears of joy to his eyes. This truly is music that soothes...reflects...and makes us all appreciate either finding it or being introduced to it by someone. Introduce only your best friends to this, those that would appreciate it as much as you and I do.

Until recent re-examination, many thought of Jobim's music as little more than elevator piffle. And, without a proper subtlety and lightness of touch, Jobim's compositions can fade into schmaltz. Well, this "tribute" takes you back to those days when "Wave" and "Insensatez" were on the playlist of every wedding and bar mitzvah band. Perhaps they still are. With synth-heavy arrangements, and an elevator groove, Grupo Karibe give us a good reason why their name isn't even on the CD. To be sure, this is no tribute. If you need to know why Albert Ayler needed to happen, give it a listen. --D. Strauss

A trans-continental indie rock bossa twist.......2001-12-24

Fun stuff. This mostly-European, mostly-French, indie-rock tribute album has several highlights, including a witty rendition of "Girl From Ipanema" by Japan's Pizzicato 5, and a healthy dose of Franco-fied versions of Jobim's bossa nova standards. Anyone approaching this disc who is familiar with the plenitude of reverential Brazilian versions of these old classics will be struck by the varied and refreshingly new takes on such well-worn material. Swedish rocker Ray Wonder gets major points for his playful, lavishly layered, electric-guitar heavy version of "One Note Samba"; similarly the surf/spy guitars on Tango & Lee Marr's "Agua de Beber" are an unlikely and quite pleasant twist, and Sean O'Hagan (Stereolab, High Llamas) gets in some nice licks as well. Interestingly enough, the British contributions to this project more often than not fall a bit flat -- although Stuart Moxham has a tasteful turn, other tracks by the Walkabouts and John Cunningham are less interesting. In the main, though, this disc is full of rewarding material. If you're ready for a little playful tweaking on the Jobim canon, check this one out!

Jobim meets the new millenium.......2000-12-25

This tribute to Jobim by young stars coming from Japan, France, the UK and the United States is very interesting indeed. It is a fusion of modern styles with Jobim's beautiful songs. All the evergreens are there. It goes too far to say that all tracks are equally succesful, but it is a joy anyway, with many highlights, including a beautiful French contribution in Les Eaux De Mars.

It is for young people of today a good introduction to the classical Jobim music and for all long time lovers of the Brazilian sound an interesting diversion.

An obscure and unusual - but compelling - tribute to ACJ.......2006-01-29

This is an expensive collection of very off-beat and unusual covers of Antonio Carlos Jobim songs performed by obscure European bands you've never heard of. This CD was apparently produced in Japan, and there is very little English in the liner notes to tell you much about the project.

Thus, we have weird collection of 21 of Jobim's most loved songs (listed below) produced by some mysterious Euro/Japanese joint project.

What to say about it?

I give it a 4-star ("I like it") rating. Each of the songs is performed with care and skill and great respect for the composition itself. These are very inventive and original arrangements and orchestrations (especially O Morro Nao Tem Vez). Sometimes the vocalists are not very strong, but in nearly all cases they have soul and are quite listenable (only the vocalist on "Modhina" didn't work for me). The vocal are sung in English, French, and Portuguese.

If you are Jobim connoisseur with some curiosity and toleration for the offbeat and unusual, and if you can afford the heft price amazon is charging for this CD, I give it a strong recommendation. If you are just browsing for your first Jobim anthology, this is not a good choice for you (instead I'd recommend "The Man From Ipanema", ASIN= B0000046XI)

Just so you know where I am coming from: I am a big fan of Antonio Carlos Jobim. I have many of his own CDs, several anthologies, and dozens and dozens of CDs from other artists covering his tunes. IMO, Jobim was one of the 20th century's great composers, and he deserves to be part of the pop pantheon along side greats like Porter, Berlin, Kern, Gershwin, Lennon-McCartney, Carmichael, etc. I listen to jazz, pop, rock, electronica, world, and pop-opera.

Here's the song list:

1. Wave
2. Waters of March
3. So Danco Samba
4. O Morro Nao Tem Vez
5. One Note Samba
6. Agua de Beber
7. Quiet Nights of Quiet Stars (Corcovado)
