Tudo

"Gilberto was in her early 30s when she broke out with Tanto Tempo by layering electronic flourishes on the bossa nova genre. Now she's in her late 40s and harkening back to her royal roots as the daughter of acclaimed singer-guitarist Joao Gilberto. Tudo polishes the acoustic lounge style of her eponymous album from 2004, but augments it with a decade more experience".

"Tudo is Brazilian singer and songwriter Bebel Gilberto's first album in five years. It marks a reunion with producer Mario Caldato, Jr., who helmed her breakthrough offering, 2000's Tanto Tempo. Recorded in six different studios in America and Brazil, Gilberto's MPB weds modern bossa, samba, contemporary jazz, and adult pop. Tudo's sound is elegant, more restrained yet more colorful than anything she's attempted before ... Tudo seems somewhat sleepy on first listen. However, given the variety of its songs, her emotional commitment, and the simple yet sophisticated arrangements, the album gradually unfolds into something nearly magical once the listener moves further in".
