Music reviews of Dreamer
Music Review: Awful "please-buy-it" effort...
Rating: 2 Stars
This a "no-no" CD. Eliane has been a child prodigy (at 16 ys. old was musical director for Vinicius de Moraes in her native country, Brazil). She can play Evanish-like great jazz piano. She grew incredibly and got into the "Steps Ahead" band, when got to USA. Married great Randy Becker (and learned a lot); divorces and later on married great Marc Johnson (Bill Evans last bass player when he was around 19 or 20 ys old). Learned a *lot* more. Somewhere in the middle started to sing, with a very low-volume voice and non-distinctive. She launched a "Plays Jobim" album (very good, can't miss it with E.Gomez and J.DeJohnette), and years after she tried a "Sings Jobim" (forgettable). Still years later, improved her singing (still, it is miles and miles away from his piano playing, on the poorest axis). She is very, very good looking and very sexy when playing barefoot ("...so as not to miss the pedals high-heeled..."). The above being said, this album is a very poor effort to "commercialize" her with photoshop shots and an incredibly "elevator music type" rythm section. If you really want to know Eliane get her in "Something for You" (tribute to B.Evans), E.Elias with the Radio Danish Big Band, her own compositions and arranged and conducted by Bob Brookmeyer. Also a compiled jazz tunes under a "great jazz masters" collection. Also try her in the "Everything I Love" *jazz* CD.
Description of Dreamer
Japanese only SHM-CD (Super High Material CD - playable on all CD players) pressing. BMG. 2008.On Dreamer, S?o Paulo-born, Manhattan-based pianist Eliane Elias performs bossa novas and brush-stroked ballads by North and South American composers from Johnny Mercer to Antonio Carlos Jobim. This project is a sort of musical homecoming for Elias, who once worked with bossa nova pioneer Vinicius de Moraes. Elias's pretty pianisms complement her breathy Portuguese/English contralto, especially on the '60s hit "Call Me," "Photograph (Fotografia)," and "So Nice (Samba de Ver?o)." Elias's two compositions, "Movin' Me On" and "Time Alone," can be considered smooth-jazz-friendly, but the Bahia bounce of "Doralice"--where Elias quotes Stan Getz's well-known tenor solo--and her instrumental rendering of Burt Bacharach's "A House Is Not a Home" are highlights of this masterpiece of soft syncopation. Rob Mathes's elegant, Claus Ogerman-style string arrangements enhance the mood. --Eugene Holley, Jr.
