Abstract
This article, which results from research funded by FAPESP, analyzes the trajectories of the singers Celly Campelo, Meire Pavão and Regiane on disc and on television of São Paulo, between the 1950s and 1960s, with emphasis on their experience as women and as artists in the context of a musical movement markedly male, as was the rock of São Paulo before the “Jovem Guarda”. In professional and artistic decisions, that three singers have suffered similar influence of male figures who some how also protected them from the risks still associated at that time to work on radio and television by women. Celly was influenced by his brother, the singer and composer Tony Campelo. Meire Pavão has suffered influence of his father, Theotônio Pavão, composer and guitar teacher, and of his brother, the singer and composer Albert Pavão, authors of almost all the songs that she came to save in discs. Regiane, other student of the same Professor Pavão, left his orbit of influence after the contract with the Young seal, directed by the producer Miguel Vaccaro Neto, only to fall under the orbit of influence of him. The three singers left their careers more or less prematurely, and this article works with the hypothesis that they have done so because of strong existing dissonance between music and moral formation they received as girls in the 1950s and the model of "deviated youth" that was associated with the musical rhythm to which they were engaged.
