  Favorite 50 Albums of the Quarter Century

  "Music is God's smile
  Always inspiring us
  Flow with the music, open hearted
  Give and receive a little more every moment
  Come alive with music.”
  [translated from Portuguese]

  If there was one unknown artist I could recommend the most highly, it would be Sara Tavares. After discovering these two albums I wanted to hear more, but as late as 2017 I was disappointed that she hadn’t released any new music. It turns out that the reason for her lack of output was that she was battling a brain tumor, which she finally succumbed to in 2023. She has now joined the ranks of artists whose flame burned bright for much too short of a time. My hope is that perhaps now her music might be finally discovered by the English-speaking world.
