Her father was a serenader who played guitar, and her mother was an amateur singer. She was discovered by Jacob do Bandolim at her 16th birthday party (Bandolim was brought by her cousin Pedro, a popular figure among the musicians of the day). In 1939, she began to perform at clubs, movie theaters and other venues. She enjoyed considerable success and her popularity increased significantly.In 1958, Cardoso was invited by Vinicius de Moraes to be the singer on an LP featuring songs he wrote with Antonio Carlos Jobim. Canção do Amor Demais became the first album of bossa nova music. The record launched the new genre, along with the two albums presented here, Sax Voz (Copacabana – CLP11.157) & Sax Voz No.2 (Copacabana – COELP 41393), which find her backed by tenor saxophonist Moacyr Silva. Elizete continued to sing and act with great success until her death.
