Heitor Villa-Lobos was a key figure in twentieth- century Brazilian music, an instinctive creator with a luxuriant imagination, at once provocative and conformist. He forged a personal style by founding his idiom on the melodic and rhythmic traditions of his country and enriching it with all the innovations he found among his contemporaries. His protean music captivates the listener with the diversity of its aesthetic orientations, which exalt his ardent patriotism and find expression in vast epic scores or, on the contrary, in delicious, piquant miniatures.

Posted by nettz at May 11, 2011

As an introduction to the music of the Brazilian composer Villa-Lobos, you can't really do better than this little masterwork which is the toccata from his Bachiana Brasileira No. 2. It was inspired by a ride that Villa-Lobos took in 1931 on just such a train that was transporting berry-pickers and farm laborers between villages…

Isaac Karabtchevsky - Villa-Lobos: Cello Concertos, Nos. 1 & 2 & Fantasia for Cello & Orchestra (2023) [24/96] Vinyl & HR

Isaac Karabtchevsky, Antônio Meneses, Orquestra Sinfônica Do Estado De São Paulo - Villa-Lobos: Cello Concertos, Nos. 1 & 2 & Fantasia for Cello & Orchestra (2023)
FLAC (tracks) 24-bit/44.10 kHz | Time - 01:08:11 | 1.23 GB
Studio Master, Official Digital Download | Artwork: Front cover

The Cello Concerto no.1 was Villa-Lobos’s first major orchestral work. Filled with youthful energy and displaying an eclectic style, it is the sound of the composer finding his voice. Three decades later and with his reputation at its height, the inspired melodies and flowing style of the Fantasia sees Villa-Lobos giving free rein to his vivid imagination. Composed for the Brazilian cellist Aldo Parisot, the no less inventive and lushly scored Cello Concerto no.2 from 1953 suggests man’s solitude when facing the vastness of nature.
