As a Brazilian myself, I'm honored. Thank you.
The year of 1887 wasn't near the end of the "Colonial period", which ended in 1822, when Brazil became independent from Portugal. It was toward the end of the "Imperialism period" which ended in 1889, when Brazil became a republic.
As far as I know, Heitor was one of the few composers to regularly feature the F#7b11sus4 chord in his compositions. This chord was later popularised by Rush guitarist Alex Lifeson...
You should make a video about Camargo Guarnieri. He was sadly forgotten in spite of being alongside with Villa-Lobos one of the greatest Brazilian composers of all time.

Dude gotta tell you something important . From the point of view of a classical guitarists: Villa - Lobos guitar concerto is of his highly respected and reviewed works and has been played by the masters of the instrument either; Andres Segovia (which he wrote the pice for him) and Julian Bream played and recorded the concerto in different performances and still is in the repertoire of many contemporary guitarists. I just named the few. It'd better be more reaching for the next time. By the way, thanks for the video.
Very interesting. You should consider doing a presentation on composers who were inspired by non-European music
I was really waiting for this video, thanks!! As a Brazilian I am really proud that we had this awesome composer in our country
You know more about Brazilian history than most brazilian history teachers, really. Just the fact that you said the obvious about Vargas' regime is beyond most of the teachers I had.
Thank you! It's good to know that my research doesn't go unnoticed.
@@ClassicalNerd this great composer series is amazing. I had just finished Zappa and Webern before coming here. Really, really interesting, well made and everything. Keep it up, man
I saw Mr Marcelo Bratke playing Villa-Lobos piano pieces on a Phoenix piano at Opus, Hastings. Mr Bratke referred to the composer's design of a piece around the shape of constellations in the sky. With the explanation of Villa-Lobos' composing method with guitar, I visualize this served composing constellations into piano chords.
Really well done! Thanks so much for this!
Your setup is coming along VERY nicely!
Great video. Shouts out from brasil!
Great video!
Great video! Thanks!
Great video!!! Keep it up 👍🏼
Hey great new setting! Looks much more comfortable! Interesting vid, I must have watched the Satie one at least 5 times! I play and am quite partial to the French Guys! and you're cuter than ever! :-) Much Peace always fantastic vids! 🎼🎵🎹😁
Excellent video my guy
Love your channel ! A video idea : comparing the styles of famous composers who composed mainly via guitar (not keyboard). I remember Berlioz did - learned that from your vid
As fascinating as that topic would be, I'm far from the person to be able to adequately answer that; a similarly academically-minded friend of mine, a brilliant guitarist, believed that such a study would be a good, weighty doctoral dissertation!
I'm working on his Choros No1 ATM and digging into the history of HVL and Choros music, so thank you for this very informative video. However, I must offer a correction: when you move a chord shape on the guitar up even one fret, you get a totally different chord. Thanks again, and I'll be checking out your other videos:)
The greatest brazilian composer ever ! 🎶
Divine ! Masterpiece ! Unique musician !
I'm a huge fan of Villa-Lobos' music and I say kudos to you for the video, you described Villa-Lobos and his music very well and I thoroughly enjoyed your presentation, I do disagree with you regarding the guitar concerto which I find is quite a fine piece of music but hey at this point we are just talking about personal preferences, thank you for posting
Awesome stuff. I love your videos.
I never hear anyone speak about Aleksander Lason.
I don't cover living composers in the _Great Composers_ series, because career retrospectives are impossible to do if the careers in question are still ongoing-sorry!
Understandable.
Keep up the awesome stuff man. I really enjoy your videos.
As a guitarist myself, I'm going to have to respectfully disagree on what you said about the guitar concerto. It is one of the first pieces I heard from Villa-Lobos and it is still one of my favorites to listen to and even to play, though it is in fact quite challenging.
I was about to comment this. I always liked if
I've just read the Wikipedia article and have now experienced a distinct sense of déjà vu...
Good one
Excellently done. Thank you! Do you have anything on Fernando Sor?
You're the second person to request Sor: lentovivace.com/classicalnerd.html
To non-brazilians understand Villa-Lobos, they have to hear before, brazilian popular music, specially 'CHORO', a very instrumental, virtuosistic and very beautiful music, sometimes nostalgic, sometimes more complex. Most part of non-brazilians dont know the traditions of brazilian popular and folk music, thats very rich, with african and european influences centuries before villa, Villa-lobos made his music with this popular music being transformed by a european classical language , contemporary music from beginning of xx century, the richness of his music is because his talent and because the richness of brazilian CHORO and regional (countryside) music and brazilian folklore
Great video! Could you take the time to talk about Antonio Lauro?
Lauro is now in the extensive request pool.
Seconded! Lauro was incredible!
14:04 but the brazilians classical guitarists usually like this piece. I love the guitar concerto.
Primeira vez que ouvi alguém dizer que não é bem visto, na verdade 😂 É uma das minhas peças favoritas dele.
Interesting video!, Can you make one about Johann Strauss II?
He is famous for his Blue Danube waltz!
He has been added to the near-endless backlog that is the request pool: www.lentovivace.com/requestqueue.html
@@ClassicalNerd Thank you!
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Do you have one of the Mexican silvestre Revueltas? Thanks

11:23 - 11:31 like Richard Wagner?
O passo. That’s all.
Agustin Barrios ?
Joplin & Rimsky-Korsakov
Joplin has been moved up in the request pool and Rimsky-Korsakov has been added to it.

The switching sides is becoming a little irritating. Maybe you should reconsider how long you think it's a good idea?
Maybe reconsider making comments on old videos whose production values do not resemble what I do today?
@@ClassicalNerd Guilty: I didn't realise this was from 2018 ;-)
Watching you say bachianas brasileras with subtitles is hilarious?
you mean BANANAS VERSUS LEE HARRIS!!?
I take it you're not a cellist ... 😏
