Maria Rita. My latest musical discovery. Any fans?

Here's a short bio from allmusic.com:

Maria Rita took the MPB world by storm with her debut album, winning all kinds of awards and crossing over abroad in light of her mammoth success. The beautiful and beautiful-sounding young lady is the daughter of one of Brazil's most (if not the most) legendary vocalists, the late Elis Regina, and if that alone weren't enough to make her a star in waiting, her father is César Camargo Mariano, one of the country's top arrangers, producers, and pianists, and her namesake is Rita Lee, yet another MPB legend. Add to that a close musical partnership with Milton Nascimento, who penned "A Festa," the Latin Grammy-winning opening track of her debut album, and you can see why the MPB world was eagerly awaiting her recording debut.
