On Speaking In Tongues, Luciana Souza absolutely paints with her voice. Produced with Larry Klein, the singer weaves together a wonderful tapestry of moods that is ethereal and captivating. The sound is a mix of jazz, classical and the beauty and color of Brazil, the country where she grew up. Souza wrote most of the tunes on the production and infuses the words of the iconic Leonard Cohen into a couple of album’s tracks. Some outstanding players help bring this effort to life, including Lionel Loueke on guitar and voice, Gregoire Maret on harmonica, Massimo Biolcati on bass and Kendrick Scott on drums. Souza is an extraordinary artist and this recording is a true work of art.
