The latest tragedy from Brazil.

Her son, the singer Luiz Antônio Pereira dos Santos, passed away last Sunday in Buzios, aged 62.

No words.

    Doubly sad for this stricken family. Radames Gnattali’s piquant ouani oieces, and those of his compatriot Francesco Mignone, are recorded by Marc-Andre Hamelin. Radames Gnattali had a sister named Aida.
