2019 release. Eliane Elias' album Love Stories gives full display of her mastery and artistry as a vocalist, pianist, composer, arranger and producer. "I am very proud of this production and feel it's one of the most romantic sets of music I've ever produced," she says of the project, which she recorded in Brazil and at London's Abbey Road Studios alongside co-producers Marc Johnson and Steve Rodby. She brings a stellar lineup of some of Brazil's most sought-after rhythm section players, including Marcus Texiera on guitar and Edu Ribeiro, Rafael Barata, Paulo Braga and Celso Almeida on drums, plus Marc Johnson, her longtime musical partner and co-lyricist, on bass. Orchestrator Rob Mathes returns for his fourth recording with Elias here, while composer Roberto Menescal plays guitar on his own song, "O Barquinho/ Little Boat."
