Life and career edit
Rocha was named the winner of the prominent Gabriela talent show in Ilhéus, Brazil. She then toured throughout Portugal, Italy, and Switzerland, later moving to Switzerland and entering the Accademia di Musica Italiana to study under Antonio Guglielmi, with whom she also recorded her first songs.[citation needed]
Rocha's albums contain songs in Portuguese, Spanish, and Italian.[1] The first album, Me Deixa Sonhar (2003), sold over 80,000 records in Italy. It also had modest sales in Brazil.[2] Rocha promoted this album by appearing in TV and live performances in São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro. The following year, Rocha released the album Recomeçar (2004) in Europe. Recomeçar was certified gold in Italy with 40,000 copies sold.[3] Rocha's third album, Amuleto (2007) was promoted with a concert tour of Italy and Spain. The tour resulted in a live album: Lili Rocha Live (2009). This album was certified gold in Italy.[4]
