Muaré (pronounced moo-ah-REH) is an album by María Rivas.
The name is a Spanish term which is originated from moiré, is a proper title to define the intention of this album. For more over a decade, María Rivas has been evolving in a parallel manner to the multiform styles of pop, folk and jazz musics. One of the most intriguing and versatile Venezuelan vocalists, Rivas performs now a blend of jazz and Latin standards from the 1930s to the 1970s in a creative and sophisticated Latin jazz combo style arranged by Alberto Naranjo. Rivas plays around with the melodies without leaving them behind. In addition, the combo format is capable of producing a more detailed sound, which gave Naranjo more freedom in his arrangements. In Muare, the music ranges from danceable tracks and mood pieces to explorative works, with well conceived jazz ideas and a strong Latin beat as well.
