Lúcio Alves

about

Lúcio Alves (Lúcio Ciribelli Alves - 1/28/1927 - 8/3/1993) was a great interpreter of Brazilian music. Alves always had music as part of his family life: his father was the conductor of his city's band and a tuba player, his mother and aunt played the piano, his sister violin, and his brothers violão and flute. As early as six years old, Alves began to take violão (acoustic guitar) classes. At nine, already living with his family in Rio, he appeared at Barbosa Júnior's Bombonzinho radio show singing "Juramento Falso" (Pedro Caetano), a song turned extremely popular by Orlando Silva. When Barbosa Júnior transferred himself to Rádio Mayrink Veiga and created the show Picolino, Alves presented himself there again. There he became acquainted with Carmen Miranda, Garoto, Os Quatro Diabos, O Bando da Lua, Carlos Galhardo, Chico Alves, and Ciro Monteiro, among others. He also knew Noel Rosa at this time, was a neighbor of Marília Batista, whom was frequently visited by Rosa. He also appeared, in 1937, on Rádio Nacional's soap opera Aladim e a Lâmpada Maravilhosa, playing Aladin, and on the show Ora Bolas! In fact, as a prodigy child, he appeared on all children's shows. In 1941, having broken a leg in a soccer play ("pelada"), he had to rest at home. As the only activity he could engage in was to sing, he formed the group Namorados da Lua, in which he was the crooner, violonista, and arranger. Ary Barroso had a novice show at Rádio Tupi at that time, which launched several unknown
