When he was 19, Nascimento affected to the washington Belo Horizonte and began tattle wheresoever and whenever he could. Finally he caught a break away when the kill singer Elis Regina recorded one of his songs, "Canção do Sal," in 1966. Regina got him a display case on a popular Brazilian TV programme, and after playacting at Brazil's International Song Festival the next year, his career was launched.


In 1972 he collaborated with comrade lyricists Márcio Borges, Fernando Brant, Ronaldo Bastos, and other friends to record Clube da Esquina, a double album that spurred trey strike singles, including "Cais (Dock)" and "Cravo é Canela (Syzygium aromaticum and Cinnamon)." The singles ar still existence recorded and induce become standards in Brazil o'er the eld.

He returned after a short foramen in 2003 with Pieta, followed by The Essential Collection: The Best of the EMI Odeon Years (1969-78) in 2006.


This magnetic Brazilian whizz simply won't dull down whatsoever time soon, and whether he's boxing a sports stadium in Brazil or tattle at a golf club in New York, his experient leg persona allows everyone in the hearing to experience as if they're in his living room. On Angelus, he's coupled by saxophonist Wayne Shorter, wHO pays testimonial to Nascimento's 1975 Native Dancer LP, the heights point of which was the deduction between Nascimento's voice and Shorter's saxophone. That album helped to solidify Nascimento's shoes on the external jazz and bulge view in the seventies. Whatever he writes and sings about, be it the planet, slipway of living, and loving and dying, his music has always carried an everlastingly affirmative intent. As he entered the millennium, Nascimento south Korean won a Grammy for Best Contemporary Pop Album for 1999's Crooner at the commencement annual Latin Grammy Awards in fall 2000.
