About the Album

Wish I Could, the new release, is a Norah Jones song recorded by Selma Boragian with Claus Petersen -- who in addition to vocals, plays bass flute and cavaquinho -- and Mario Manga on cello. The musical producer is Arnaldo DeSouteiro. The song talks about two women talking sadly about their love who left to fight in the war, and was a huge hit for Norah Jones. The reinterpretation is delicate and respects the original intention, but brings the freshness of new voices and an original and rare instrumental formation.
