15 years ago, Brazil lost Dorival Caymmi. The Brazilian singer and composer loved to sing and tell in his lyrics and melodies his deep bond with the place where he was born, the Bahia. The artist, who was from Salvador, left us on August 16, 2008, victim of cancer. In honor of him, the ecad (Central Collection and Distribution Office) carried out a special survey of his musical works.
The song written by dorival most played in the last 10 years in Brazil was samba from my land. In the TOP 5 there were also Maracangalha, Marina,story for tindy AND Vatapdin this order.
Among Dorival’s most re-recorded songs, the lead was Marina. The songs complete the list Samba from my land, Rosa Morena, Maracangalha AND Bahia is missingrespectively.
Another curiosity were the performers who appear in the collective management of musical databases such as those who have re-recorded the most musical works of Dorival Caymmi. The top five finishers were Nana Caymmi, Danilo Caymmi, Dori Caymmi, Maria Bethânia AND Gal Costa.
As determined by Copyright law (9.610/98), the heirs of Dorival Caymmi will receive their royalties from the public performance by 70 years old after his death (or of the last author, in the case of partnerships).
