Laura Buenrostro Quartet release their new album, Brazilian Songs, via Plaza Mayor Company Ltd. The album contains 10 (45 min, 37 sec) memorable and engaging songs. Some you may know, others may be new to you, but they're all unmistakably infused with the Brazilian spirit...

Laura Buenrostro, backed by her Quartet, is our host through these 10 engaging and spirit lifting Brazilian classics. Each is tackled with Buenrostro's enthusiasm - it's pretty obvious that these are songs that she's incredibly familiar with and mean a great deal, personally, to her.

The recordings are passionate and that passion is hard not to be infected by. Overall, this is a wonderful collection of songs delivered with originality giving each track a fresh feel.
