Died April, 88, Antonio Vieira had his complete works launched by Vale, with the Association for Support of Music and the Art of Maranhão (Amarte). The project launched in 2003, brought together seventeen CDs, a CD compilation with promotional purpose, the book 'Life and Work, "with a biography of Vieira, the book' Music and Lyrics," with a compilation of all the songs, and video interviews with local artists talking about the importance of the work and the making of the production design.
