Daughter of one of the most important female singers of the bossa nova (Sylvia Telles), Claudia Telles recorded for the first time in 1976 (the ballad "Fim de Tarde" by Robson Jorge/Maura Motta), which scored a hit. After recording other singles, she recorded her first LP, Claudia Telles, in 1977. Along with her bossa nova interpretations (covering her mother's hits), she also dedicated a CD to the samba masters Cartola and Nelson Cavaquinho. ~ Alvaro Neder
