Teresinha Maria Miranda Espíndola (March 11, 1954 in Campo Grande, Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil), best known as Tetê Espíndola, is a Brazilian singer, composer, craviola player, actress and voice actress, considered to have one of the most beautiful, exotic and high-pitched national voices.
Essentially an experimental singer/composer, the characteristics of her work are in the multiplicity, with incursions into the avant-garde, the regionalist pioneering, fusions of the acoustic with the electronic and experimentalism with birds and voices. In short, a range of options that her absolutely rare voice, of unique timbre and uncommon extension, provides her with. Throughout her more than 40-year career, she has been praised by vanguard critics, musicians, and intelectuals, and has won numerous awards for her work focused on experimenting with and recreating the Brazilian ecological universe.
Tetê is widely known for her big '80s hit song titled "Escrito nas Estrelas", written by her husband Arnaldo Black and Carlos Rennó. She is also known for her association with the vanguardist Arrigo Barnabé, which would be essential for her future path in music, appreciating her rare vocal talent.
