Cabo Verde

by Cesária Évora

Cabo Verde cover art

Riding the unprecedented global success of her previous albums, the 'Barefoot Diva' delivered another breathtaking collection of traditional Cape Verdean music. The incredibly warm, acoustic-driven arrangements gracefully highlight Évora's rich, melancholic vocal delivery, effortlessly conveying the profound 'sodade' (longing) that defines the Morna genre.
