The Rio de Janeiro Municipal Theater received this Friday (2), with the funeral of the renowned singer Nana Caymmi . The artist, who died at 84 yesterday (1st), left a legacy for Brazilian music.
Family, friends and admirers gathered to pay the last honors to the singer at the ceremony.
Stella Caymmi daughter of Nana, spoke to CNN during the wake. “She was very simple, she liked simple things [como] Staying with her parents when they were alive, gathering her family, was very fond of being quiet, Lia, crochet, ”he reported, describing how his mother was.“ I was a cross, I read a lot and called Ruy Castro to discuss his books. ”
“And in everyday life, a person with very strong temperament, sometimes angry, but the braveza ended up in seconds,” he said. Nana Caymmi’s personality was known to be irreverent and strong.
“He was a wonderful person, a mother, grandmother, great -grandmother, who will be sorely missed,” said Stella.
The daughter also stressed Nana’s struggle at the beginning of her career, facing challenges in a period marked by machismo in the music industry. “She was very charged. They thought that because she was Caymmi, everything was very easy for her. So they made it difficult. There was a side that opened doors and a side that closed doors for her. So the beginning of her career in Venezuela’s return was a very big fight. So much so that in the late 1960s, she had seasons of two, three months in Buenos Aires and recorded a record with Brazilian songs that was practically counterbalanced.”
After the wake, the artist’s body was buried in the São João Batista cemetery. Nana Caymmi died yesterday (1st) at 84.
