One of the most important samba singers since the ’40s, Jamelão is still active today as Mangueira’s puxador (official interpreter) of sambas-enredo (the longest career in this position) and as a solo artist. He is also highly regarded as a preferred interpreter of Lupicínio Rodrigues’ sambas-canção like “Ela Disse-me Assim,” “Torre de Babel,” “Esses Moços,” “Sozinha,” “Quem Há de Dizer,” and “Exemplo.” His most famous compositions are “Deixa Amanhecer” (the first one), “Um Dia Hás de Pagar,” and “Ela Me Convidou.” In 1968, he was invited to the prestigious position of member of the Ala dos Compositores (Composers’ Section) of the Mangueira samba school.Jamelão joined the Mangueira samba school’s bateria (drum section) at 15, playing the tamborim (a kind of tambourine). He had his debut as a singer at the gafieira Fogão. After being a crooner in that kind of dance nightclub, he honed his skills until he was hired by Rádio Ipanema. But it was really in the gafieiras that he would become a professional, joining Luís Americano’s Conjunto Brasil Danças as a crooner. In 1947, he won a contest promoted by Rádio Clube do Brasil and was hired by the station and by the Continental recording company. Around 1949, he became the puxador (official singer) in the Mangueira Carnival parades making him the longest person to ever hold the position. As a crooner with Severino Araújo’s Orquestra Tabajara, Jamelão also toured Europe and continues to perform as a solo artist. ~ Alvaro Neder
