Gilberto Gil gives a good tribute to his daughter during his return to the stage

Almost a month after the death of his black daughter Gil, Gilberto Gil returned to the stage in a presentation marked by emotions and honors. The event took place on Sunday evening (17), in the auditorium of Ibirapuera, in San Paolo, and had the company of other children of the singer.




Preta Gil died at the age of 50 on July 20, after a long treatment against intestinal cancer, and was veiled at the Municipal Theater of Rio de Janeiro. During the show, Gilberto dedicated the song “Drão” to his daughter, being rejoiced by the public.

“Every time I sang this song I’ve been singing for her lately. In recent years, always, always for her. One of the girls at home, our black girlfriend. It was made for her mother,” said the musician. It is interesting to note that the singer has already faced another family loss in 1990, with the death of his son Pedro, who makes his resumption of the phases even more significant.

Memories of family and affection

Furthermore, recently, in what would have been the birthday of prete, Gilberto shared unpublished photos of his daughter on social networks, demonstrating the desire and affection he feels. The sister of the singer, Nara Gil, has also published exciting messages that recall the trajectory and the joy of prete. In this way, the family has found a way to honor the artist in a public and emotional way.

Fabrício Gil, Preta’s brother, revealed recent conversations with the singer after the worsening of his health. “I was devastated. I was comforted and encouraged to go to the assembly that afternoon. It was with the black I played there for the first time, in 2005. The following week, I went to visit it in San Paolo and vibrated the success of the show! With this, the family support and the importance of the Union is evident in moments of loss.

Go back to the stage with emotion

Therefore, Gilberto Gil’s return on stage was marked not only by musical talents, but also by the symbolism of love and memory. This is because the tribute to the black daughter Gil allowed the public to share, even for a moment, the memory of a dear artist. With this, music and emotion have become protagonists of the night.
