03 May 22 - 04:43 PM (#4141051) Subject: Obit: Nelson da Rabeca (Brazil) From: GUEST,RA Brazilian (Alagoas) musician Nelson da Rabeca has died recently at the age of 81. Perhaps he is/was not very well known outside of Brazil, sadly, but he was an amazing musician, a player of the rabeca (descendant of the mediaeval rebec) who ought to be more widely known. Here is a Wikipedia page (in Brazilian Portuguese) about him: Nelson da Rabeca Survived by his wife Benedita, herself a fine singer. RIP |
