Participated in the Festival Opening (TV Globo) in 1975 with the song "They were naked" (Burnier and Cartier), selected among the finalists who composed the LP which recorded the event.

The following year was hired by the Odeon, the suggestion of Milton Nascimento to the then artistic director of record, Mariozinho Rocha, and recorded their second LP, "Burnier & Cartier."

In 1977, the two musicians were invited by Don Burrows to perform concerts in Australia, recorded live, generating the double album "Brazilian connection", launched by Pie Records, with the participation of the Don Burrows Quintet, and The Sidney Strings Quartet and George Golla.
