Born into a middle class family from Espφrito Santo (SE), she moved
with her parents to Rio de Janeiro at the age of two. Nara Leπo started
having guitar lessons in her teens with Carlos Lyra and Roberto Menescal.
According to some music critics, bossa nova was born in Nara's apartment
in Copacabana, where she held jam sessions. In the late 50's, Nara Leπo
worked as reported for a newspaper during the day and performed at night,
singing with her small voice and accompanying herself on the guitar.
She made her professional debut in 1963, in the musical "Pobre Menina Rica",
by Vinicius de Moraes and Carlos Lyra. In the same year, she recorded two
tracks of the album "Depois do Carnaval", by Carlinhos Lyra: "Marcha
da Quarta-feira de Cinzas" (C. Lyra/ V. Moraes) and "Promessas de VocΩ"
(C. Lyra/ N.L. Barros). In the following year, she recorded her first LP,
"Nara", provoking a great polemic due to its repertoire which included
not only bossa nova tunes, but also several samba tunes written by the
so-called "favela comosers" like "Diz que Fui por Aφ", by ZΘ KΘti and
HortΩnsio Rocha, "Luz Negra", by Nelson Cavaquinho and AmΓncio Cardoso,
and "O Sol Nascerß", by Cartola and Elton Medeiros.
At the end of 1964, during the military dictatorship, Nara performed in
the show "Opiniπo", together with ZΘ KΘti and Joπo do Vale, one of the
most important protest manifestations against the military regime. Soon
after, Nara made the record "Opiniπo de Nara".
