Critical Acclaim For Brazilian Singer And Songwriter Bianca Rossini's New Bossa Nova Album, Vento Do Norte
New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Following the success of her previous albums Meu Amor and Kiss of Brasil, Bianca Rossini releases Vento do Norte, her latest collection of original bossa nova classics.
Brazilian singer-songwriter Bianca Rossini, on her new, critically acclaimed album Vento do Norte, masterfully establishes that there is a great deal of life to be found in new bossa nova music.

On Vento do Norte, Bianca Rossini introduces 10 compositions that are sensuous, establishing a variety of pleasing moods with irresistible bossa nova rhythms. The singer wrote all of the lyrics and co-wrote three of the songs, with composers like Peter Roberts, Grammy-winning songwriter Jon Gilutin, Patrick Lockwood, Steven Rawlins, Marilyn Berglas and Harvey Mason. Bianca's haunting vocals make each performance a seductive and compelling listening experience. The beautiful melodies, rhythms and Bianca's luscious singing style create alluring and accessible music.

Among the highlights of Vento do Norte are the gentle love ballad "Doce Amor," "Ipanema Paraiso" (featuring the tenor of Jimmy Roberts), "Why I Smile," the catchy melody of "Tic Tac do Amor," and "Meu Sonho," a slower piece fully displaying the beauty of Bianca's voice. Joined by several rhythm sections with either Roberts, Rawlins, Berglas, Gilutin or Mark Nilan on keyboards, Bianca Rossini stakes out her claim as one of the finest bossa nova singers on the scene today, and one of its most important songwriters.

Vento do Norte is being released by Apaixonada Music and BDM Records, and is available worldwide at https://www.biancarossini.com, iTunes, Amazon and Spotify.

"Bianca Rossini's voice is pure, expressive, playful. Her songs poetic, richly grounded in generations of traditions for which she clearly has deep affection, not to mention expertise and facility. The performances, lithe and life-filled, match all that in every note, every nicely turned phrase. But what stands out most on Vento de Norte is her honesty, both emotional and artistic. At root of this is her deep love for the golden age of the samba and bossa nova of her native Brazil — you don't cite Ipanema in a song title (the silky "Ipanema Paraiso") without wanting to evoke that era. But she's not ignoring or dismissing all the experiments and fusions of those styles that have happened over the years. Rather, she's renewing the spirit that inspired all that in the first place, and has so profoundly inspired her. She sings of amor ("Doce Amor" — "Sweet Love") and the flirtatious, tantalizing games we make of it ("Tic Tac do Amor"). But what she really wants is for us to love this music, and all she brings to it, as much as she does. And she succeeds. Delightfully." - Steve Hochman, music journalist

"When I conjure up perfect bossa nova in my mind, it sounds very much like Bianca Rossini's elegant Vento do Norte. Bianca's vocal delivery is sweet and sunny, the arrangements sway and swing entrancingly, and the songs stay with you long after the final notes fade away. Each track is a gem, luxuriant, gleaming and intimate, imbued with timeless traditions and ingenuity. Vento do Norte is a triumph, Bianca Rossini's most fully realized and enrapturing release to date." - Jeff Tamarkin, music journalist

"Vento do Norte manages to be both driving and tender all at once. That intimacy is what sets Ms. Rossini apart from many bossa nova vocalists - all emotion, never indifference." - Doug Boynton, Girl Singers
