Milton Nascimento
















Milton Nascimento is a talented Brazilian singer famous for his fantastic songs. His musical style is expressed as “Bossa Nova”; a Brazilian type of music derived from jazz.





















Milton grew up listening to music. His mother was a music teacher and his father was a radio station owner. His first musical instrument was a harmonica, which was given by his grandmother. She also gave him an accordion, which enchanted him so much, that was the “turning point” for his musical life.

In 1962 Milton recorded his first song “Barulho do Trem” and from that date on he has recorded more than 30 albums. Some of his greatest hits are: “Maria, Maria”, “Canção da América”, “Travessia” and “Coração de Estudante”.

















His personal charisma and musical skills turned him a world-famous singer. In 1998 he was awarded with the Grammy of the “Best World Music Album” and in 1991 and 1995 he was also nominated for the Grammy.





















He is simply brilliant and that’s why he is one of my favorite singers!
