The story behind

The song *Ressurreição* presents us with a Elis Regina at a moment of great artistic maturity. At 36 years old, she was already an established figure in Brazilian popular music, but this track, with its 3:23 duration, reveals an interpreter in command of her voice, conveying confidence and vibrant energy. The work behind this sound, especially in the orchestral direction, fell to Luiz Astor da Silva, who at that time also led Columbia Brasileira and was involved in the early stages of Roberto Carlos's career.

This album, released in 1963, was Elis Regina's third studio album and featured 12 tracks. Astor Silva's influence was key in how Elis Regina approached samba and Brazilian popular music, providing arrangements that enhanced her already notable talent. Critics, such as John Bush from AllMusic, highlighted the young vocalist's skill, describing her as someone with supreme control of her instrument, capable of projecting confidence and vitality throughout the work.
