Biography
Along with Orlandivo and Pedrinho Rodrigues, Brazilian singer-songwriter SÃlvio César took his first steps in music as a crooner in Ed Lincolnâs group, which dramatically reshaped the sound of samba in the 60s. Born SÃlvio Rodrigues Silva on August 14, 1939, in the town of Raul Soares, he met Ed Lincoln at the famed Beco das Garrafas nightclub in 1959 and went on to pen numerous hits with the keyboardist and bandleader, including classic songs like "Olhou Pra Mim" and "Nunca Mais." In 1960, SÃlvio César made his official debut as a solo artist with the split single âMáxima Culpa/Manhã Sem Adeusâ and followed up a year later with Amor Demais, his first LP. In 1965, he contributed to the soundtrack of Aurelio Teixeiraâs film Na Onda do Iê-iê-iê, also making an appearance as an actor. SÃlvio César reached the pinnacle of his career between 1968 and 1972, with a trio of self-titled LPs that seamlessly combined easy listening, bossa nova, jazz, and MOR. As his fame grew, SÃlvio César began penning hits for other artists, most notably Roberto Carlos, who re-recorded his âO Moço Velhoâ in 1974 to great commercial success. Following a stint as a composer of soap opera soundtracks during the 80s, he kicked off the 90s with the MPB tribute Aos Mestres, Com Carinho, which featured the likes of Tom Jobim, Chico Buarque, Leny Andrade, EmÃlio Santiago, Nonato Luiz, and Quarteto em Cy. SÃlvio César continued recording and performing well into the 21st century, independently releasing the albums Música e Letra in 2007 and Agosto (Silvio César) in 2013.
