Mário da Silveira Meireles Reis (31 December 1907 — 5 October 1981 in Rio de Janeiro), also known as Bacharel do Samba was a popular Brazilian samba singer, active between 1928 and 1971. He collaborated with artists such as Francisco Alves, Carmen Miranda, Aracy de Almeida and Noel Rosa and was particularly successful as a radio singer. ==Biography== He graduated in Law and Social Sciences in the Faculty of Law, University of Rio de Janeiro, National Law School, Federal University of Rio de Janeiro (UFRJ), and the Class of Ary Barroso (LLB, 1929). He recorded many hits with Carmen Miranda and Francisco Alves, with whom also performed frequently in the 1930s, all of which are regarded as amongst the finest Brazilian singers of this period. He toured in Brazil and also Argentina. As a singer, he was known for his gentle tone, which compensated for the lack of vocal power. His singing style even today sounds modern and he is considered one of the pioneers of bossa nova. Many believe his singing influenced João Gilberto. He spent many years away from singing career and returned years later to make records. In 1965 and 1971 he recorded two albums, this being his last. In 1995 Julio Bressane made a film ''O Mandarin'' about Brazilian popular music of the 20th century, focusing especially on the life and work of singer Mário Reis. The singer was played by actor Fernando Eiras. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Mário Reis」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
