Qué descubrimiento tan precioso. Gracias por tanta dulzura y belleza.

( English, at the request of Chanelops ) Alba has grown older. It is the law of life. Those wonderful years as a child and adolescent in the Sant Andreu of maestro Chamorro are over, where she trained and became a star, almost without realizing it, as a jazz and bossa nova vocalist and trumpeter. Hundreds and hundreds of videos, of concerts, of parades, from the Palau to the Jamboree, from the Jazz House to the Bar Colombia. Those adorable duets with "the other" Alba, with Rita, with Joana, with Èlia... So much beauty, so much talent, so much sensitivity, so much magic... But now, at just 21 years old (who would have thought, if she has spent two thirds of her life on stage) she is already flying alone, choosing her own vital and professional paths. And here we have her, at the head of her groups, duets, quartets, quintets or sextets, always with Vicente, her partner, sometimes with Marçal, now with Martí and Campisi, without ever lowering the very high level. And with the usual talent, taste, sensitivity, art and magic. It is a gift, you have it or you don't have it. And Alba has plenty. Newcomer singer-songwriter with her own songs (with the collaboration of Vicente). Beautiful, how could it be less. For heady moments. His own, personal, non-transferable style, difficult to classify, to pigeonhole. In Spanish, in Catalan, in Portuguese, with that voice that caresses you, lulls you, wraps you in its arms and takes you to paradise... Sometimes it sounds like Jazz, but it comes and goes. Romantic song, yes, but not exactly. Bossa Nova, sure, but not too much. It's a bit of all that, but much more. And nothing in particular. It's just Alba.

Linda Alba Armengou 😘❤️❤️💕👏👍👍👍💯💯💯Brasil 🇧🇷

As a fan it is easy to say well done, however, that isn't enough said with this collection of music... Alba's voice is wonderful, tender and clear with grand expression. The collaboration between Alba and Vicente has created a superb and brave album of song and music. Joan Marti's sax and flute adds a full and enjoyable balance to the music... the rhythm section is beyond wonderful, deserving applause, as does the whole production, lots of applause, encore!

O refrão 'sambado' de "El señor misterioso" é uma delícia. Obrigado, Alba, pela leitura além fronteiras que você faz da música do Brasil. A propósito, estás te revelando uma excelente compositora; sutil e inovadora. Incorporar os sons do mundo ao teu trabalho, sem limitações regionalistas ou nacionais, me parece um sábio caminho. Parabéns e vida longa! Ah, sim, tua pronúncia do Português brasileiro está cada dia melhor.

Tienes una voz hecha para el bolero 😍😍 Don Joan Chamorro debe estar muy orgulloso de ti y de tod@s tus compañer@s..eres talentosa muy talentosa Alba 👏👏👏👏👍

Beautiful young lady with an equally beautiful voice. Alba was my first singer I heard when I discovered the SAJB. I was knocked over by her talent at then such a young age. She is wonderful. She sings beautifully in English too‼️

Alba is a dream voice. Greetings from Venezuela

Superb! Alba Armengou has steadily risen to the class of living female jazz vocalists that was previously only populated by Norah Jones.

She's so good! My new favourite musician.

I was very surprised today. I live in suburban Philadelphia, USA. i went to my local pharmacy and, on the store's sound system, I heard your recording of El senor misterioso! I could not determine who chose the store's play list but I would have liked to complement them on their goodtaste! It was no fluke, the next song was Diz que fui por ai. Alba, your songs are gaining some recognition here in the USA, whether or not you realizethis!

Gracias a Dios por tu talento y por la persona hermosa que tú eres.

Qué hermoso disco, fabuloso, por eso te queremos tanto

❤❤❤ My Little Alba 🎤 🎶 😊

ALBA THANK YOU AND ALL GOOD PEOPLE AROUND YOU THANK YOU MUSICIANS INEFABLE HARMONIES OS SOUL LIGHT AND LOVE PEACE

What Alba has shown so clearly here is that she isn't limited to jazz or bossa or any one medium -- her versatility and pure voice are just incredible! Bravo! I hope we will see her in New York at some point.

Absolutely beautiful! Alba, we love your music. Your voice is pure, relaxed and lovely.

I haven’t heard a record this good in a long time, I don’t understand Spanish but I love every song.

Veu molt càlida i so de trompeta ben projectat i sense estridències. Genial com sempre. M'agrada molt el nou aire de la gavina: un clàssic cantat, arrengat i tocat per músics joves al que li han donat la volta i l'han seguit deixant com una cançó preciosa.

muito interessante de acompanhar a alba desde pequeninha, tentando cantar em português brasileiro, e vendo a evolução dela, pouco a pouco a cada ano, junto com a banda do Joan Chamorro. Hoje em dia ela canta praticamente sem sotaque, a pronuncia dela é tão boa que algumas pessoas não notaria que ela não é brasileira. como brasileiro, me sinto muito honrado em ver que uma grande musicista como a alba tem tanto apreço pela música brasileira, e tanta dedicação em reproduzir com a maior perfeição possível, não só cantando bem, mas incorporando o espirito da música brasileira em sua voz e arranjos. Muito Obrigado❤.

Wow!The full album!Gracias querida Alba.😘👍🌹🕊️

Muy Hermoso y Romantico 🌹🌹🌹😘

Bravo! Bravo! Bravo!

Espetacular! Ouvindo aqui do Brasil! Bravo a todos! Bravo Alba! 😍😍😍😍😍

Bbravo pour ce très bel album, qui enchante les froides journées hivernales de la Bourgogne française. Votre musique fait des heureux dans le monde entier.

Never tire of her beautiful music and versatility. Simply superb.Best musician I have ever heard out of thousands live.

Happy to have had the possibility to contribute to the crowdfunding. It was worth ! 😊 ❤

Long awaited album, so awesome. Thank you Ms. Armengou for the warm music well needed up here in Ottawa CANADA.

Definitivamente una voz muy madura, estupenda. Gran disco. Felicidades Alba Armengou. Sonho Meu

me encanta mucho! Gracias!

Hola, Alba....vas por buen camino chiquitina...sigue, sigue y vendran muchos éxitos....🌹

Eu sempre fui um fã ardoroso da Jazzband de Juan Chamorro. E principalmente dessa grande estrela, Alba Armengou. Que além de ser uma mulher linda, tem uma voz belíssima e aguda e é uma extraordinária instrumentista. Parabéns, Alba!! Todo sucesso do mundo para ti!!

Gracias Alba por compartir tanta belleza.

Alba, your album is a Triumph ❤

Maravilhoso álbum! Sua pronúncia de português está maravilhosa também!! Ótimo trabalho 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Penso que este Album representa o coroamento de uma trajetória de talento e sucessos desde "Struttin' With Some Barbecue - 8 años - Trumpet - SAJB". Parabéns e obrigado a todos os participantes.

Estoy volviendo mucho a este disco. Gracias!!!

This sounds great, like I knew it would, of course. It's hard (impossible?) for anything Alba does to not be done well. I'm super excited about it and looking forward to getting my signed copy with booklet, etc. Bravo, Alba!

Absolutely love your album. It's amazing. Thank you. ❤ 5:04 from St. Francis WI. USA. 6:24

Alba se nos ha hecho mayor. Es ley de vida. Ya pasaron aquellos maravillosos años de niña y adolescente en la Sant Andreu del maestro Chamorro, donde se formó y se hizo una estrella, casi sin darse cuenta, como vocalista y trompetista de Jazz y Bossa Nova. Cientos y cientos de videos, de conciertos, de pasacalles, desde el Palau al Jamboree, desde la Jazz House al Bar Colombia. Aquellos adorables dúos con "la otra" Alba, con Rita, con Joana, con Èlia ... Tanta belleza, tanto talento, tanta sensibilidad, tanta magia ... Pero ahora, a sus escasos 21 años (quien lo diría, si lleva dos tercios de su vida comiéndose los escenarios) ya vuela sola, elige sus propios caminos vitales y profesionales. Y aquí la tenemos, al frente de sus grupos, dúos, cuartetos, quintetos o sextetos, siempre con Vicente, su pareja, a veces con Marçal, ahora con Martí y Campisi, sin bajar nunca el altísimo nivel. Y con el talento, el gusto, la sensibilidad, el arte y la magia de siempre. Es un don, se tiene o no se tiene. Y a Alba le sobra. Cantautora debutante con sus propios temas (con la colaboración de Vicente). Preciosos, como no podía ser menos. Por momentos embriagadores. Estilo propio, personal, intransferible, difícil de catalogar, de encasillar. En español, en catalán, en portugués, con esa voz que te acaricia, te arrulla, te envuelve entre sus brazos y te lleva al paraíso ... A veces suena a Jazz, pero viene y se va. Canción romántica, sí, pero no exactamente. Bossa Nova, claro, aunque no demasiado. Es un poco de todo eso, pero mucho más. Y nada en concreto. Simplemente es Alba.

This is a really well balanced album. A nice amount of variation without drifting so much that it loses the consistency. I really liked the electric guitar and bass in Somnis and the saxophone in La Gavina and the up tempo vocal in Fato Consumado contrasting the slow tempo vocal in Luna. And even the cover graphic is excellent. Applause to you all.

Amazing debut album. Mature, beautiful, inventive, authorial. Congratulations.

Beautiful, thanks for this magnificent album. Cheers.

One word……LOVELY.

te descubrí en el 2022 con el album de Joan Chamorro, me enamore de tu voz & desde ahí te sigo, hoy por fin te veo en París!!

Perfect match between you and Vicente, great job ! ❤❤ I wish I could understand the lyrics :D Thanks to Joan Chamorro who taught so many great values to these kids who can now fly with one's own wings !

It is quite a pleasant surprise to hear that this talented vocalist is producing such fine work as she continues to evolve her artistry. The early development of her talent is paying great dividends, and evidently she is driven to continue the process. I hope to hear more, and soon, though I would be grateful to hear a return of a singular focus to the bossa nova form on a release soon to come. Her command of that music is amazing, and I truly love what I've previously heard of those performances so much.

this is a special album ~

Hermoso.

So beautiful! Congratulations 🍾🎉

FELICITACIONES !!!!!!!!!!!!! MUY LINDO ALBUM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Ya me lo descargue y lo agregue a una carpeta con todas tus otras grabaciones. Desde Argentina Saludos Cordiales de un Fan Tuyo. A NO DETENERSE . Atte. Ignacio HEFNER .- 😎 😎 😎..................

De niña, ahora y siempre mujer, una flor.

Music, especially song needs to have been listened to one, five even forty-five times then perhaps you will come to understand the given efforts by the composer and artist. Every single note and chart flow has its special meaning, or else in another way, just enjoy them on Sunday with coffee leisurely. Thanks for this great collection, Miss Alba and musician.

Fantastic, Thank you!

💖💖💖 Bravo! Congratulations!!!

Hello Alba, I am very happy that I was able to contribute a very small part to the realization of your first CD with my donation to VERKAMI. You and the other young musicians, please keep making such varied, surprising and fresh music. I look forward to the autographed CD. Thank you Alba! Greetings from Germany.

Alba você é sensacional, muito bom esse album, todo bom. Rosa Passos uma cantora Baiana( Bahia/Brasil), irá fazer um show em Nova York, como gostaria de vê-la cantando com você, ficaria perfeito.

another perfect and original Alba success. very nice album cover.

buen trabajo me encanta saludos y un abrazo desde Ecuador🌹🌹🌹

De 🇷🇺 con ❤️!

Congratulations on the album. I love it.

Cudowna Alba. Kocham Cię!!!

Somnis is simply brilliant!

Me encanta esta canción, ¡es hermosa!

Alba is the female Chet Baker. Her own style!❤🙏🥰

Fantastic sounds Alba! Congratulations. As we say in Hawaii, "Hana Hou!" (encore, keep playing)

Recard from Brazil. Você canta muito bem em portugues. Seu sotaque é ótimo.

Hermoso album Alba, me encanto el cover de Djavan. Espero que podamos escucharte más seguido! ❤️

Como en una cuna, de un lado a otro.

Congrats Alba.

Alba! That’s wonderful; I loved it!

This picture is perfect❤

Congratulations on the album Alba! I hope I can watch you perform live! I’m a Filipino fan living in Vancouver Canada. ❤

I upvoted before listening because I predict future me will: 1) Love it; 2) Purchase it Looking back, I will see that past me was correct ✨💫

Incredible playing and singing. So original and diverse. Somnis is miles apart from anything else on the album but it fits right in. This is exactly the record I'd hoped for.

Vraiment très joli ! Bravo pour ce beau travail au niveau vocal et musical. Félicitations !

¡Como brillas!

These compositions sound very good. It's great to see this album being released, as Alba has always been my favorite vocalist from the Sant Andreu Jazz Band. If I ever win the lottery I'm going to provide cash for all the graduates of the SAJB to have the other graduates play on their records. These great songs from Alba and other great artists should be fully orchestrated from the get go! Estas composiciones suenan muy bien. Es genial que salga este disco, ya que Alba siempre ha sido mi vocalista favorita de la Sant Andreu Jazz Band. Si alguna vez gano la lotería, voy a dar dinero en efectivo a todos los graduados de la SAJB para que los otros graduados jueguen en sus registros. ¡Estas grandes canciones de Alba y otros grandes artistas deben orquestarse completamente desde el principio!

Such a gift

sounds amazing! does anyone have translation to English? when does this show go on the road? and how far do I need to travel to witness this masterpiece? I live in Texas

❤

Wonderful! Now all I need is a FLAC download ... R (Australia)

I wonder what it's like to have the entire world in love with you?

Sou apaixonado na sua voz!!

Gracias que talento!!

Lyrics We meet in front of the sea And his bark and his purity tell us so Each one should go their own way These whispers of the wind filled us with pain Como el otoño a las flores We must learn to flourish soils and dance along the paths contemplate the roses That leave us for spoiling Let's be sincere and honest with our bodies, What is the bottle that contains Our essence of loving and learn to take care of ourselves We must learn to flourish soils and dance along the paths contemplate the roses That leave us for spoiling Let's be sincere and honest with our bodies, What is the bottle that contains Our essence of loving and learn to take care of ourselves

Muito bom!!!!

❤️!

¿Se lanzará este álbum en Japón? alba bravo🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳

That's it. I need to learn Spanish just so that I can learn all of her songs! This is wonderful! Thank you for the music!

🎺🎺🎺

Tried to purchase on the Itunes store and it says it is not available in the US. :(

Where can I buy this album? Or donate? On pitch! And everything else. Greetings from the Netherlands.

Una pregunta, Alba: ¿el Verkami está ya cerrado? Porque estoy intentando aportar pero no me deja, parece desactivado. Me temo que he llegado tarde. Y sí es así ¿cómo puedo ahora comprar el CD físico? Un fuerte abrazo y mi absoluta admiración por tu carrera. 😉

Bandcamp, por favor? =D

Alba, is this available as a physical CD?

Noice.

Geweldig 🎉
