Musicians - Carlos Lyra


Carlos Lyra is a Brazilian musician and composer of numerous bossa nova classics. He was born on May 11, 1939. Along with Roberto Menescal, he was a primary figure of the younger generation of bossa nova musicians who closely followed the inception of the style by João Gilberto
and Antonio Carlos Jobim
. Later, he joined Nara Leão as part of the bossa's activist wing, seeking a return to its samba roots.

He continues to compose, record, and perform today.

Lyra's most famous compositions include "Coisa Mais Linda", "Você e Eu", "Maria Ninguém" (once claimed by Jacqueline Kennedy to be her favorite song), and "Influência do Jazz".
