Agnaldo Rayol had much success from 1946 onward as a romantic singer, radio and TV actor, and show host. In 1998, he had a national hit singing the theme song of soap opera Terra Nostra (TV Globo), "Tormento d'Amore," in Italian. Among his career hits were "Acorrentados (Encadenados)," "O Amor É Tudo (Love Is All)," "Livre (Born Free)," and "Ave Maria" (<a href="spotify:artist:42Vmza0WYHdhsgxFmf9Tui">Gounod</a>). He recorded more than 21 LPs and CDs from 1958 to 1998.
At age eight, Rayol opened as a singer at the Rádio Nacional (Rio). After moving with his family to Natal RN, he continued to perform on the radio as an actor and singer. Returning to Rio in 1951, he participated in the film Maior Que O Ódio. In 1956, he accompanied <a href="spotify:artist:6hjZVNyzFWaUvhebAULIq5">Leny Eversong</a> in a Northeastern tour and was hired by Rádio Tupi upon his return.

He had another hit in the next year with another version, "O Princípio E O Fim" (<a href="spotify:artist:0ZKY5JXrPqZ761rg10WqtW">Alain Barrière</a>, version by Nazareno de Brito). Between 1966 and 1968, he presented the Corte Rayol Show at TV Record (São Paulo SP), with Renato Corte Real.

In 1981, he won the International Song Festival (Uruguay). He hosted the Festa Baile show for eight years (TV Cultura, São Paulo SP) and participated in several soap operas and humor shows.
