BARBARA CASINI, PHIL WOODS, STEFANO BOLLANI - VOCÊ E EU (2000)
1- Fotografia
2- Pra machucar meu coração
3- Maria Ninguém
4- Por causa de você
5- Você e eu
6- Cai dentro
7- Avarandado
8- Pra que discutir com madame
9- Estrada branca
10- Na baixa do sapateiro
Among the surprises that producer Paolo Piangiarelli pulled on Phil Woods during a marathon seven recording sessions over a span of five days during the spring of 2000 was matching him with pianist Stefano Bollani and singer Barbara Casini, neither of whom were familiar to Woods, in a program of classics performed by the late Elis Regina, who was Woods' favorite Brazilian singer. Her voice is lovely, with wonderful emotion, clear enunciation, and flawless timing. Casini is best on ballads such as "Fotografia," but she's also up to the demands of the rapid-fire pieces like "Cai Dentro" without running out of breath. Woods' personal highlight may be his gorgeous playing on the ballad "Avarandado," although he is in top form throughout the date. As Woods surmised in his notes, a rhythm section would be a superfluous addition since the talented Bollani takes care of that role by himself, as well as providing a variety of interesting supporting lines for the singer and the saxophonist. This is the kind of session that should get those not familiar with Elis Regina to look for her recordings, too. Hopefully, this meeting between Phil Woods, Stefano Bollani, and Barbara Casini will have a follow-up during a future trip to Italy by the saxophonist. - Ken Dryden, All Music Guide
