 | | The ample apartment of her complacent parents in Rio's south side (zona sul), Copacabana, Posto 4, became a meeting point for musicians, which led many to erroneously establish it as a bossa nova cradle (actually, the cradle was, to some extent, the Cantina do César, but even more appropriately, the Plaza nightclub around 1952). |
 | | She also recorded two tracks on Carlos Lyra [+]'s LP Depois do Carnaval (Philips): the marcha-rancho "Marcha da Quarta-Feira de Cinzas" (Carlos Lyra [+]/Vinícius de Moraes [+]) and the samba-jazz "Promessas de Você" (Carlos Lyra [+]/Nelson Lins e Barros). |
 | | In the late '70s, she released her LP Meus Amigos são um Barato (Philips, 1977), with appearances by Tom Jobim, Carlos Lyra [+], Edu Lobo [+], Chico Buarque [+], Caetano Veloso [+], Gilberto Gil [+], Roberto Menescal [+], and others. |
