The fascinating face of the great brazilian composer Villa-Lobos in different stages of his life. <br /><br />Born in Rio de Janeiro, Villa-Lobos made his first musical steps by learnig the violoncello, later guitar and clarinet. His music is inspired by brazilian street music bands as well as by J.S.Bach. Villa-Lobos started his musical career playing in coffeehouses, cinemas and theatre orchestras. Later on he became more and more popular as composer and conductor also in Europe and USA. <br /><br />Composed in Paris in 1929, the "12 Études for guitar" were dedicated to the famous guitarist Andres Segovia. <br /><br />The "Étude Nr.7" was part of my first commercial solo production in 1985, labeled as "affettuoso assai" and sold as handcopied compactCassettes during my first public concerts. <br />More music from this production : <br />www.youtube.com/view_play_list?p=4EA257606EEB77A0 <br /><br />recorded in puzzlepie studio ( http://www.puzzlepie.eu/ )
