Dilermando Reis
Dilermando Reis (Dilermando dos Santos Reis), probably the most famous Brazilian popular guitarist, was born in 9/22/1916, in Guaratinguetá/SP, but lived most of his life in Rio de Janeiro, where he worked actively in radio and recordings. From 1941 to 1975 he recorded over forty albums, both 78rpm and LPs. Reis played different types of guitar music and recorded the compositions of Bach, Barrios, Tárrega, as well as popular Brazilian composers. His preference was the traditional Brazilian guitar style: waltzes and choros full of modulations to "confuse accompanists," played with his unique style and sound. He recorded about 100 of his own compositions, many of which became standards of Brazilian popular guitar, like "Dois Destinos" and "Se Ela Perguntar." In 1975 he recorded the LP, "The Brazilian Guitar of Dilermando Reis," containing his last compositions. Died in Rio de Janeiro, Jan 02, 1977. Read more on Last.fm.
