dbo:abstract
  • Elis Regina Carvalho Costa (Portuguese pronunciation: [eˈlis ʁeˈʒinɐ]; Porto Alegre, March 17, 1945 – São Paulo, January 19, 1982), popularly known as Elis Regina, was a Brazilian singer of popular and Jazz music. Before her untimely death at the age of thirty-six, she was widely regarded as Brazil's greatest living popular vocalist. She became nationally renowned in 1965, after singing %22Arrastão%22 (composed by Edu Lobo and Vinícius de Moraes) in the first edition of TV Excelsior festival song contest, and soon joined O Fino da Bossa, a television program on TV Record. Elis was noted for her vocalization, as well as for her personal interpretation and performances in shows. She recorded several successful compositions, such as %22Como nossos pais%22 (Belchior), %22Upa Neguinho%22 (E. Lobo and Gianfrancesco Guarnieri), %22Madalena%22 (Ivan Lins), %22Casa no Campo%22 (Zé Rodrix and Tavito), %22Águas de Março%22 (Tom Jobim), %22Atrás da porta%22 (Chico Buarque and Francis Hime), %22O bêbado e a equilibrista%22 (Aldir Blanc and João Bosco), %22Conversando no bar%22 (Milton Nascimento), etc. Her premature death, at the age of 36, shocked Brazil. She has frequently been regarded as the greatest Brazilian singer of all time by critics, musicians, and commentators.
