Brazilian CDs

These pages are short reviews of some of our favorite CDs, both imported and US releases. Click on the style of music you want and use our selections to build up a basic collection of Brazilian music or to add to your CD library. We will be adding to these pages on a regular basis, as more titles become available in the US. If you'd like to see what's new in Brazil right now, visit Brazilian Music UPTODATE. They also have great interviews with the artists, photos and bios.

For some of the best reviews of Brazilian CDs you'll ever read on the Web or anywhere else, go to Coraτπo Brasileiro, a page by Dennis Miller, formerly of Boston (he has moved to Miami, but we'll keep begging him to write more..)

You'll notice that we're adding Real Audio files to our music pages. All this wonderful music was released for play on Maria-Brazil by Jack O'Neil of Blue Jackel Entertainment, Mßrio de Aratanha of Kuarup Discos in Rio de Janeiro and Antonio Adolfo. Antonio, Jack and Mßrio, we can't even begin to thank you...
