"Paradiesvogel" is the german word for "Bird of Paradise". This album is a tribute to all those foreign birds – and also to female singers, who brought colour and spice to our lifes with their art. Strong women, who often found success far away from their home-countries: Carmen Miranda, Marlene Dietrich, Zarah Leander, Alexandra, Dalida, Caterina Valente, Adele and many more. The Brazilian singer and entertainer Edson Cordeiro is also a "Paradiesvogel". He is a big star in Brasil but lives and works a lot in Germany and Europe. In more than 25 years career in the music industry he gained two golden CDs for his albums with dance-music and a Latin-Grammy-nomination for his pure classical album "Contratenor". Edson Cordeiros four.octave-voice is considered by many as one of the wonders of the world. In this accoustic album he can show his marvelous skills – his endless breath, his high notes and his unique dramatic interpretations. www.edsoncordeiro.com
