Hi all

Can anybody help me out?

Hi all,

For a long time I'm looking for some works by Brazilian composers:

1. Francisco Braga - Vols d'Oiseaux (piano version)
2. Sílvio Fróis (Froes) - Allegro, Op.20 no.5 (printed version)
3. Leopoldo Miguez - Minuete

These are really hard to find...

Any luck?

Many thanks in advance.

Da Cunha ( 1846-1913), is at IMSL:

http://imslp.org/wiki/Category:Itiber%C ... s%C3%ADlio

I have his biography in Portugues, so I translated into English (please forgive some mistakes):


He was a Brazilian Diplomat, he was born in Paranaguá, Brazil. . He attended primary school in her homeland and her musical debut was at the piano, learning on her parents' home.
Already renowned pianist in his youth moved to Sao Paulo to attend law school. After obtainning a BA in Law joins diplomatic career serving in the diplomatic corps in several countries as: Italy, Peru, Belgium, Paraguay and Germany. While the music aside, Brasílio had friendly relations with some of the greatest pianists of his time, as Anton Rubinstein, and Liszt Sgambatti.
Considered one of the pioneers of nationalism, was among the first to draw on popular subjects in print and his work features distinctive Brazilian. He composed chamber music and choir, plus parts piano.
His Rhapsody Sertaneja popularized, especially by the famous song "Balaio, baby, Balaio." His best known composition is undoubtedly "The Sertaneja" 1869. He was appointed ambassador to Portugal, but died before assuming the role . He died in the German capital on August 11, 1913.
