Rosalia De Souza - D'improvviso (2009)

Rosalia's third album is a wonderful one. D'Improvviso, (which translates to "The Unexpected?" in Italian) is a return to the original style that fans loved on "Garota Moderna." The album has the Italian Jazz/Lounge arrangements of her debut album (with occasional addition of Brazilian instrumentation) that doesn't completely overpower her voice. Unlike her first Schema album, the instrumentation is live instead of electronic. Those who liked her first album, will still like this one too.
She does several enjoyable boass novas and remakes of classic sambas (Quiem Quiser Encontrar O Amor -- which Suba also remade a few years back) and a few Bossa Novas. Carolinha Carol Bela is one of the first singles off this album, and it's a great album.
