Fernando Maurício Fernando Maurício is a true pillar of fado. He sang with such a strength, determination and know-how that he left all those that had the pleasure of hearing him completely breathless. He had an unique way of singing the fado, shown in his paradigmatic “killer” take on the first verse so that at the end of the first stanza all the song (whatever fado it may be) was at his mercy. To many connoisseurs, Fernando Maurício is the greatest fado singer of his generation. Born in Lisbon in 1933, in Rua do Capelão (the true heart of Mouraria and of fado), he died in the same city in 2003. However, his physical passing didn't signify his death, as Fernando Maurício is still very alive and hold dear as one of the main references in fado. Price: 9,90€ Carlos Ramos Carlos Ramos is one of the household voices of fado, with a very successful career that unfortunately finished too soon. However, since he became a professional in 1944 until the end of his artistic life, in the mid-1960's, he was always considered as a primus inter pares in the fado milieu and in Portuguese music in general. Building his name as a guitar player, in the 1930's, a time in which he worked in telegraphy, when he started singing he immediately had a success with “Senhora do Monte”, a song written by Gabriel de Oliveira (lyrics) and José Marques (music, known as a fado standard with the title “fado Carriche”). At a period in which the grooves spinned at 78 rpm, Carlos Ramos definitely set his name among the preferences of the public, fusing fado with the romantic song style of the time in a very natural way. Price: 9,90€ Amália Rodrigues Amália Rodrigues is unarguably the greatest Portuguese music artist and one of the greatest ever in the world. Her name was highly heralded in the main music halls everywhere and her voice has been heard by many radio and television stations worldwide. Amália delighted and surprised her listeners, being able to bring to tears people who didn't understand a word of Portuguese but who felt the inner strength in her singing. She came and she won in such an overwhelming way that it seems certain that she was a true force of nature. While still alive, she already had become immortal. Price: 9,90€ Next titles

	Exclusive CNM Online | CNM Chiado   Carlos Gutkin - Jardins de Luz The works in this CD are a result of my musical and cultural roots as a musician and guitar player: from Cuba, you may find the syncopated rhythms of “son” in tracks like “Son da Primavera” or in “Sonete de Outono”; from Argentina, there are the three pieces from the “Suite Piazzollana”, for flute and guitar, written as a tribute to Astor Piazzolla. On the other hand, in “Milonga-Son” we notice the melodic and rhythmic elements that come from the cuban “son” and the rhythmic and harmonic elements of Argentinian tangos and milongas. In the second tango, “Triste como um tango triste”, there is a romantic and lyrical element typical of tango that is put to contrast with two dance sections. (…) When I wrote the piece “Jardins de Luz”, also the title of this re cord, I was enticed by the rhythmic and harmonic possibilities that were close to electronic music, to contemporaneous languages, to jazz and to some pop, rap and flamenco.

	This second CD dedicated to Aaron Copland's symphonies opens with “Symphony Nr. 1”, an adaptation of the “Symphony for Organ and Orchestra” written in 1924. Also here is one of his favourite works, the “Symphony Nr. 2”, full of complexity and syncopated rhythm. But the real highlight is the “Dance Symphony”, which Copland saw as “a grandiose symphonic work”, and that was itself based on the music he wrote for “Grohg”, a vampire ballet influenced by the German expressionist film “Nosferatu”. The conductress of these musical works is Marin Alsop, who directs the Bournemounth Symphony Orchestra. Price: 5,95€
