Pirilao Posted October 27, 2006 Share Posted October 27, 2006 VINICIUS DE MORAES Vinicius de Moraes was born in Rio de Janeiro, on October 19, 1913. His father, Clodoaldo Pereira da Silva Moraes used to recite verses in Bilac's old fashion way, and his mother, D. Lydia, played guitars during family reunions. The son followed both vocations: as musician, composing his first songs still at Santo In?cio School at the side of Tapaj?s brothers; as poet, metaphysics so deeply embedded in his personality, then at the School of Law he published his first book "O Caminho para a Dist?ncia" (The Way to Distance). Â The diplomatic career took him away from music for a while. In Los Angeles where he has been stationed during five years as a consul, he made acquaintance with the cinema. With "Orfeu da Concei??o", musical film made in partnership with Antonio Carlos Jobim in the 50s, the musician has found himself. He composes with Pixinguinha, Carlos Lyra, Baden Powell and Edu Lobo. "Bossa Nova" adopts him as its "Guru". In August 1962, he made his first big show, at the Bon Gourmet nightclub, with Tom Jobim and Jo?o Gilberto. Nobody would take him away from the stages ever more. Â Out of diplomacy, Vinicius becomes also a show-man a singer with a strange and tuned voice, a happy man who would enrich his songs with tales about life and unforgettable stories. Partnership with Toquinho, in his last ten years of life, took him to endless travels and university tours and made a star of him. Audience from Argentina and Italy in particular bowed before Vinicius. The results over his poetic career ms striking because poet and musician became only one.
