Ivete Sangalo



Ivete


I may have misspelled the name of this Brazilian singer, Ivete Sangalo. Apologies to my son, future Brazilian (?) who put me onto her. Now I'm down with her and can't quit her. Here's another tune from UTube, a duet with a fine singer, Alejandro Sanz. I am taken by the rapid execution, the seemingly perfect mesh of their voices, the joy they exude:

Wikipedia has a lot of bio on Ivete. This is just a squib:


Ivete Sangalo (born May 27, 1972 in Juazeiro, Bahia) is a Latin Grammy Award-winning Brazilian axé and MPB singer, songwriter, and occasional actress and television show host. She is one of the most popular and best-selling Brazilian female singers of the present, with six albums released with Banda Eva, and seven more albums in a solo career. Ivete is most often recognized by her powerful voice, charisma and live performances. Her music is also popular in Portugal.


There are many other videos of her on the web..............
