Duo performing sertanejo (Brazilian country music)
Maria Cecília & Rodolfo[1] are a Brazilian country music duo called Música sertaneja,[2] formed by Maria Cecília Serenza Ferreira Alves and Rodolfo Trelha Jacques de Carvalho.[3]
History
Cecília and Rodolfo[4] partnership began in 2007 when they met at the University Don Bosco in Campo Grande, Mato Grosso do Sul, Both were enrolled in a Zootechny course, but their shared passion for music soon took center stage.
They started their musical journey by singing in the school hallways, eventually deciding to pursue music as a career. Their early performances included university fairs and local bars. In 2008, with sponsorship from established artists Jorge & Mateus, they recorded their first promotional CD titled “You Back.”
The following year (2009), Cecília and Rodolfo achieved a significant milestone by releasing their second album, accompanied by their first DVD. The release, produced by Som Livre in Goiânia, marked a turning point in their career. Their melodic compositions and heartfelt performances resonated with audiences, propelling them to prominence within the Brazilian country music scene.
Recently, the duo recorded their latest effort—a CD recorded at Estoril Club, attended by guests from their fan clubs. Notably, on August 13 and 14, 2010, they performed live in São Paulo, capturing hits such as “Bye Bye” and “The Days Go.” On December 2, 2010, Maria Cecília e Rodolfo launched the new single from their CD/DVD, the song “The Payback,” featuring members of the samba group Exaltasamba.
