Composer Information

Camargo Guarnieri (2/01/1907 - 1/13/1993)

The son of a father from Sicily and a Brazilian mother, Camargo Guarnieri established himself as a musician of importance in São Paulo, before moving in 1938 to Paris for lessons with Koechlin. In style he belongs to a third generation of Brazilian composers, after Braga and then Villa-Lobos, with national traits now fully absorbed into a mature and often passionate musical language. His completely violinistic sonatas for violin and piano, Nos. 4-6, written in 1956, 1959 and 1965, are a fascinating addition to duo repertoire.
