Review by Simon Ramboer

Helena Madeira's album Da Voz Do Embondeiro is a beautiful collection of traditional Cape Verdean music. The album features Madeira's powerful, soulful vocals accompanied by a range of instruments including guitar, cavaquinho, and percussion.

Throughout the album, Madeira's voice is the star of the show. Her emotive delivery brings to life the stories told in each song, whether it's the longing in "Sodade" or the joy in "Nha Terra." The instrumentation is expertly crafted to support and enhance Madeira's vocals, adding depth and texture to each track.

One standout track is "Cabo Verde di Nôs," which showcases Madeira's ability to blend traditional Cape Verdean music with modern influences. The song features a catchy chorus and upbeat instrumentation that will have listeners tapping their feet and singing along.
