Fantasia is the seventh studio album by Brazilian jazz artist Eliane Elias.[1] [2] The record was released in March, 1992 via Blue Note label.[3] The vocal parts were performed by herself, her daughter Amanda Elias Brecker, and Ivan Lins. This record is one of her most acclaimed albums; Allmusic gave it 4½ stars out of five.
Ron Wynn of Allmusic wrote "Eliane Elias continues exploring Brazilian music on this latest release, doing both classics such as "The Girl From Ipanema" and a Milton Nasciemento medley, plus several Ivan Lins tunes. She uses alternating bassists and drummers, with Eddie Gomez, Marc Johnson, Jack DeJohnette, and Peter Erskine dividing time, plus Nana Vasconcelos on percussion, with Lins helping out on vocals."
