Tania Maria (born May 9, 1948) is a Brazilian composer, musician and artist, singing mostly in Portuguese or English. Her music is mostly vocal, sometimes pop, often jazzy, and unmistakably Brazilian. Whether playing fiery samba, tranquil bossa, Afro-Latin, Pop and Jazz fusion, or any other style, she maintains a style that is uniquely her own. Her vibrant voice, brilliant piano work and outstanding performances have made an artist of increasing international popularity.
Tania's 1983 album Come With Me started her international breakthrough with the title song becoming a 1980's dance-floor classic that has since been covered frequently. The poppy 1985 album Made in New York increased her popularity worldwide.
