█░ Liner Notes: ░█
█░ There is a word in Portuguese that doesn't translate easily into ░█
█░ English: 'saudade.' Some would say it means a yearning or longing, ░█
█░ others that it conveys melancholy and nostalgia. Whichever, this ░█
█░ CD is full of saudade! ░█
█░ ░█
█░ Kerry Linder, a native of Curacao (the largest island in the ░█
█░ Netherlands Antilles), invites you to 'sail away' to a mythical ░█
█░ place with a collection of sensuous, soft, and gently swinging ░█
█░ melodies. "Growing up in Curacao exposed me to the rich traditions ░█
█░ of the Afro-Caribbean culture and music played an important part ░█
█░ in my life," says Kerry. ░█
█░ ░█
█░ Her father, Felix Linder, is an accomplished concert violinist who ░█
█░ played for many years with a popular quartet on the island and now ░█
█░ resides in New York. Kerry's versatility is demonstrated as she ░█
█░ moves effortlessly between English and Portuguese. "I use language ░█
█░ to convey the passion of the lyrics and to heighten the melodies ░█
█░ of Paulo Andre Tavares' sensitive arrangements." Paulo Andre, the ░█
█░ guitarist accompanying Kerry, is an accomplished arranger and ░█
█░ composer who regularly performs on the professional circuit in ░█
█░ Brazil. This CD bears witness to his love of various musical ░█
█░ styles, alternating between the old and the new with undertones of ░█
█░ bossa, jazz, and blues. For Paulo Andre, improvisation is a form ░█
█░ of composition. ░█
█░ ░█
█░ Kerry is joined by percussionist Mauro Refosco, who has recorded ░█
█░ with David Byrne and The Lounge Lizards; bassist David Finck; ░█
█░ drummer Helio Schiavo; cellist Erik Friedlander; harmonica-vibes ░█
█░ player Hendrik Meurkens, who has appeared on several Brazilian ░█
█░ jazz recordings since the early 1980s; trumpeter Michael Philip ░█
█░ Mossman, Head of the Jazz Graduate Program at Queens College; ░█
█░ saxophonist and flutist Paulo Levi, who was recently on tour with ░█
█░ Bebel Gilberto; tenor saxophonist and clarinetist Anat Cohen; ░█
█░ trombonist Clark Gayton, who plays with Sting; and accordionist ░█
█░ Bob Curto û- all highly acclaimed musicians in their own right and ░█
█░ an integral part of the New York jazz scene. ░█
█░ ░█
█░ The CD kicks off with Kerry's original composition and title ░█
█░ track, "Sail Away With Me", which is based on a poem that she ░█
█░ wrote on the eve of the first anniversary of the 9/11 tragedy. "I ░█
█░ started to put down my feelings on paper and realized that what ░█
█░ people need is music -û beautiful music, soothing music -- that ░█
█░ will take them to a better place." The lyrics are about a mythical ░█
█░ place and there are references to various well-known songs from ░█
█░ Jobim standards. The mood is enhanced by the plaintive tenor sax ░█
█░ of Paulo Levi and the unusual sound effects created by David Finck ░█
█░ on the upright bass (whales) and Eric Freidlander on cello ░█
█░ (seagulls). ░█
█░ ░█
█░ The instantly recognizable bossa nova classic, "Deixa" (Let Me), ░█
█░ was written by two Brazilian legends, the guitarist Baden Powell ░█
█░ and poet/lyricist, Vinicius de Moraes. This version is pure jazz ░█
█░ bossa and listen for the clever segue of another Baden ░█
█░ composition, "Berimbau." Notice also the sultry interplay between ░█
█░ the trombone and tenor sax at the end. "This song is even more ░█
█░ special as Helio Schiavo, who was Baden Powell's drummer for many ░█
█░ years, is playing with us." ░█
█░ ░█
█░ "Adeus Batucada," is a swinging samba featuring Mauro Refosco's ░█
█░ playful and improvisational percussive beat. Listen for the old ░█
█░ fashioned typewriter keys being struck and the squeaks of the ░█
█░ cuica (a small friction drum with a thin stick inside attached to ░█
█░ the drumskin). ░█
█░ ░█
█░ "That's All" An American classic, is played as a spirited bossa ░█
█░ which features the percussive harmonica playing of Hendrik ░█
█░ Meurkens. It almost sounds like the cuica and is pure magic! ░█
█░ ░█
█░ "Inquietacao" was written by the legendary composer Ary Barroso in ░█
█░ 1935. Barroso is known for his elaborate harmonies and beautiful ░█
█░ sambas that praise the beauty and richness of Brazil --- Kerry's ░█
█░ sensitive rendition is very much in the style of the old ░█
█░ samba-cancao. "We recorded it alternating between the samba and ░█
█░ baiao (a northeastern song style)." ░█
█░ ░█
█░ "Song For My Father" was composed by Horace Silver in 1964 and ░█
█░ dedicated to his father who was of Cape Verdean descent.. It is ░█
█░ played as a partido alto (type of urban samba with short refrains ░█
█░ that singers follow with improvised verses) and Kerry's duet-like ░█
█░ scatting adds an interesting dimension. ░█
█░ ░█
█░ "Language and Love" is a splendid bossa number composed by Joyce.. ░█
█░ Replaying this tract, you will find it more invigorating each ░█
█░ time. It is a personal favorite! ░█
█░ ░█
█░ "St. Judy's Comet" is one of Paul Simon's lesser-known songs. This ░█
█░ rendition is played as a simple baiao, featuring syncopated melody ░█
█░ and instrumental refrains in short arpeggios. Bob Curto's ░█
█░ accordion playing is evocative of forro, another musical style ░█
█░ that is a variation of the baiao. There is also a touch of the ░█
█░ blues and country in Paulo Andre's chordal work. Listen for ░█
█░ Mauro's berimbau (an indigenous instrument which consists of a ░█
█░ wooden bow with a metal string and gourd resonator). ░█
█░ ░█
█░ The classic samba, "Manha de Carnaval" (Morning of Carnival) was ░█
█░ composed by Luiz Bonfa as the theme to the 1959 film Black ░█
█░ Orpheus. This version is given a contemporary feel and the lyrics ░█
█░ are soft and sinuous. ░█
█░ ░█
█░ The brilliant arrangement of Billie Holiday's "God Bless the ░█
█░ Child" is enhanced by Kerry's serene and sultry blues bossa style. ░█
█░ "I Don't Know," as Kerry explains, is appealing to the ░█
█░ cross-cultural influences in this CD., "I wanted to record this as ░█
█░ I felt that there was a real Brazilian feeling in the melody. It ░█
█░ lends itself easily to this musical genre and we have recorded it ░█
█░ as a baiao." ░█
█░ ░█
█░ The final track, "As Time Goes By", is a surprising jazz/bossa ░█
█░ number showcasing the remarkable guitar playing of Paulo Andre. ░█
█░ Have you ever heard a bossa version of this song? It certainly is ░█
█░ a first for me! ░█
█░ ░█
█░ So relax, listen and enjoy the journey as you sail away with ░█
█░ Kerry. ░█
