Description
Once again, Cape Verde brings us an amazingly talented new singer!
Aged 22, Elida Almeida overcomes the traumas of her troubled childhood on an album overflowing with folk melodies and seasoned with the beats of the Island of Santiago: batuque, funana and morna, uplifted by the subtle arrangements of guitarist Hernani Almeida.
"Ora doci Ora margos" reflects the hopes and dreams of young Cape Verdeans eager to escape their isolation and embrace the world. The young singer's style is very different from Cesaria Evora's, yet it works the same enchantment, shining through in the sincerity of her voice and the allure of her message.
