Elisete "Gaagua (Longing)" IMP Records 2006 Elisete's music is an interesting mix of Hebrew and Portugese set to Brazilian rhythms. She relocated to Israel from her native Brazil fifteen years ago. Her second album, Gaagua (Longing) follows the success and critical acclaim of her debut album, 'Luar e Cafe' (Moon and Coffee) Elisete named the album 'Gaagua' (Longing) because although she loves being an Israeli she is longing for the Brazil she left behind - The children on roof tops flying kites with the Brazilian colors and all her childhood memories. Using the colors she brought from Brazil, Elisete paints our reality through her songs. The songs resemble Elisete: An almost impossible mix of simple words that touch deep in your sole with Brazilian rhythms and melodies that just make you dance. Elisete's optimism and huge smile echoes through the entire album making it easy to get carried away by her songs into the sunny Brazil she carries in her heart. The album is dedicated to the late Ehud Manor, one of Israel's greatest song writers that has supported Elisete along the way. In Gaagua Elisete goes beyond singing and writing the songs and lyrics and she is actively involved in all the production stages including the arrangements. The album is distributed (In Israel) by IMP Records.
