2003 album features the work of the world-renowned film composer as interpreted by the Portuguese singing star.
This is an impressive album where Dulce Pontes turns cinematic themes from the Morricone repertoire into songs in English, Italian, Spanish, and Portuguese, and she is breathtaking in most of them. Dulce Pontes embellishes Morricone’s compositions with an epic grandeur that few other singers could have achieved. Her voice is very potent and playful, yet subtle when necessary. I’m always surprised by how gracefully her vocals blend with the music and succeed in recreating the absurdity, the nuances, and the overwhelming beauty of Morricone’s eccentric musical temperament. My favorite songs are those in English, particularly “Your Love” (with music from Once Upon a Time in the West). Dulce’s elegant venture into a Brazilian arrangement makes “Nosso Mar” another favorite of mine. Her best achievement, however, is probably “No Ano Que Vem”, a song inspired by Jerusalem and set to the strangely upbeat music from the film Maddalena. Focus is a superb accomplishment in Dulce’s career. In the end, one could not possibly deny her the classical stature of Ennio Morricone. — customer review at amazon.com
