Background notes
Archive material and source history
Mara Tavares began singing Brazilian gospel music early, and in 1974 she put out her first album, 'Tributo a Deus.' Four years later, her song 'O Altíssimo' became a standard in the genre. It's a ballad about the presence of God, and its chorus stuck with people.
In the 1980s, some religious groups criticized her for mixing secular sounds into her music. She kept recording anyway, and over time she made more than forty albums. She has worked with musicians like Djavan, Gilberto Gil, and Caetano Veloso. Another of her well-known songs is 'Santo Dos Santos.'
