NOTESABOUT THE TRANSCRIPTIONS

These pieces were transcribed as acurately as possible from Dilermando Reis

recordings. However, due to his personal way of playing, and the existence of
two or more recordings of the same piece, I adopted the following criteria:
a) I've written a "standard notation" according to the style of the
piece. Dilermando Reis'style was fuIl of rubatos and bass
anticipations. To transcribe the recordings with absolute
fidelity would result in a very complicated score - even to
those who are familiar with this style of music. What was
natural in Dilermando's playing could sound artificial in
other hands.
b) When there were more than one recording of the same piece, I
chose a solo version. In the caseof two or more solo recordings,
I took that which I consideredthe best. The exception is "Dr.
Sabe-Tudo",adapted from the one existing recording of two
guitars.
c) Slight alterations in repeatedsectionswere not considered since
they do not change the musical idea.
This work is dedicatedto Mr. RonoelSimdes,to whom Brazilian guitar and guitarists
owe so much.
Specialthanks to friends: RonoelSimdes,Hdlio Cunha,Edmar Fenicioand William
Akira Kobata who gaveme recordings,information and suggestions.

DTLERMANDORErS(L9L6-L977)
Dilermando Reis, probably the most famous Brazilian popular guitarist, was
born in 56o Paulo Statebut lived most of his life in Rio de Janeiro,where he
worked actively in radio and recordings. From 1941to 1975 he recorded about
2O-78romand 23-LPs.
He played all kinds of music and recorded the compositions of Bach, Barrios,
T6rrega, Gnatalli and Pixinguinha among many others. However, his preference was the traditional Brazilian guitar style: doleful waltzes and choros full
of modulations to "confuse accompanists", played with his unique style and
sound.
He was a greatcomposeralso. He recordedabout 100 of his own compositions,
many of which became real standards of Brazilian popular guitar - like "Dois
Destinos"and "SeEla Perguntar".
In 1975he recordedthe LP,"TheBrazilian Guitar of Dilermando Reis",containing
his last compositions: choros and waltzes,of course.

IVAN PASCHOITO
Ivan was born in Sdo Paulo, Brazil in 1953. Fascinatedwith the sound of
Dilermando Reis,he beganteachinghimself the guitar at the ageof 12. In1973,
Ivan began transcribing and arranging the music of Baden PoweII, Toquinho,
Milton Nascimento, Vinicius de Moraesand others. His first arrangementswere
published in 1984.
Ivan's favorite guitarists include: Carlos Barbosa-Lima, Paulinho Nogueira,
Dilermando Reis,Garoto (Anibal Augusto Sardinha)and John Williams.
