World review: Mariza, Terra

Mixes mournful fados with flamenco, Cuban jazz and general folkiness
  
  


The fifth studio album by Portugal's finest sees her, along with musos such as Cuban pianist Chucho Valdés, and guitarists Dominic Miller and Javier Limón, mix mournful fados with flamenco, Cuban jazz and general folkiness. A superb singer live, on record she can sound a bit constrained in comparison with other fado-ish rivals, but she remains a class act all the same.
