Product Reviews: Capoeira Angola From Salvador Brazil |
Rating: 5 (out of 5) Summary: What an excellent CD!! Comments: I had this CD reccommended to me by my Capoeira Angola instructor, and boy was he right. I own a lot of Capoeira CDs (almost allly Regional music), and this is1of the best.
Frankly I was suprised to find that the CD contains some 39 tracks!!!!!! The best of which are definitely the live tracks (I do not usualy care for live music recordings, however the sound quality of these is excellent, and really conveys the energy of the roda.
I had previously neglected to mention that the CD liner book contains a history of the art of capoeira as well as all of the song lyrics, and their translations (in english!!)... That alone is worth the purchase, and makes this CD an useful resource for anyone trying to learn the songs for classess (think text book).
great stuff, a must own for anyone interested in Capoeira Angola. |
Rating: 5 (out of 5) Summary: Awesome Capoeira CD Comments: I absolutely love this CD. The insert that comes with it gives a lot of useful information and it actually helped me brush up on my Portuguese. I have used this CD on long trips (I am in a performing arts group) and though no1else in the van understands why it keeps me awake when driving for 5-8 hours across country, there you will see me singing and smiling down the highway. I love this CD and endorse it for music aficionados and capoeiristas alike. |
Rating: 5 (out of 5) Summary: excellent choice for learners of angola!! Comments: this is a great cd for both capoeiristas and world music listeners alike. it is the music for angola which is the more acrobatic capoeira. it is well recorded, beautiful and clear. i find that the music both gives you energy and helps you to focus, i often listen to it while working on my illustrations. i highly endorse!! |
Rating: 5 (out of 5) Summary: Capoeirista de Sao Ceatano-SP Comments: I lived in Brasil and spent many years with Bahianos playing Capoeira on the beach, no school or teacher, just friends. I learned more from them than I have seen being taught in any school in the U.S. This music is just as traditional as the ones I played on my berimbau as we played through the night and day. It is a must for all capoeira practitioner who have a taste for the real thing.purchase it. Trust me. you will love it |
Rating: 5 (out of 5) Summary: Great Beginner's CD Comments: This was the 1st Capoeira CD that I purchased. It has excellent liner notes that give a great background of Capoeira. However, what I found almost all helpful are the lyrics to the songs that are also printed in the liner notes, along with translations in English. It has helped me learn a lot of the songs our group uses. |
