This is one of those albums were nothing goes wrong, especially if you are a fan of Elizeth Cardoso or Moacyr Silva. For those who are members of both fan clubs – such like me – this album is real treat. What can go wrong with a record that brings together the voice of one of the greatest Brazilian divas and the awesome Moacyr Silva tenor sax? I think only zecalouro can jeopardize this post, making some his unforgiving mistakes. Let’s see.

This is Elizeth Cardoso | Moacyr Silva – Sax Voz (1960), for Copacabana, featuring 14 tracks with Elizeth Cardoso performing with Moacyr Silva on the odd tracks and Moacyr Silva and his Conjunto performing instrumental renditions of American standards on the even tracks. Moacyr Silva brought a constellation of Brazilian musicians in this session, including his favorite pianist Chaim Lewak, Jorge Marinho, Aurino, Julinho, Waltel Branco, among many others. Sax Voz has a continuation titled Sax Voz Nr. 2, released in 1961 for the same Copacabana label, our next target. Tracks include:
