Context
On Christmas Eve 1976, Roberto Carlos shares the television spotlight with musicians who usually provide accompaniment. The third edition of his Globo special turns these encounters into a tribute. Between his own hits and guests from the radio era, the program connects the singer's career with other Brazilian traditions.
Altamiro Carrilho brings his flute to O Calhambeque. Maurício Einhorn accompanies Eu Sou Terrível, Paulo Moura joins Olha, and Roberto de Regina brings the harpsichord to Detalhes. On Lígia, Tom Jobim sings and plays piano alongside Roberto. Scenes from Madison Square Garden extend the setting to New York.
The Christmas dinner brings together Aracy de Almeida, Carlos Galhardo, Linda Batista, Moreira da Silva, Isaurinha Garcia, and Orlando Silva. Toasts give way to songs, and Boas Festas closes the singing sequence. Broadcast on December 24, the program becomes part of an annual series that began in 1974: the memory of radio finds a place in television's Christmas celebrations.
- Tom Jobim shares Lígia with Roberto, on vocals and piano.
- Roberto de Regina accompanies Detalhes on harpsichord.
