Artist
Osvaldo Costa de Lacerda (March 23, 1927 – July 18, 2011) was a brazilian composer. He began piano study at nine, and from 1952 to 1962 he studied composition with Camargo Guarnieri, under whose orientation his compositional character developed and to whom he owed the beginning of his career. His aesthetic credo is that of a refined nationalism, resulting from his extensive knowledge of the characteristics of Brazilian music, combined with solid training in modern techniques of composition. In 1963, Lacerda became the first Brazilian composer to receive a Guggenheim Fellowship. He then took classes of composition with Vittorio Giannini in New York City, and Aaron Copland in Tanglewood. He received several national prizes for composition. His numberous works that have been frequently performed in Brazil and abroad include pieces for piano, voice and piano, chorus, chamber ensembles, orchestra, and band, many of which are published and recorded (thriteen music publishers in Brazil, six in Germany, three in the United States, and one in England). He founded and directed four musical societies in Sao Paulo, among them the Sociedade Pro Musica Brasileira (1961-66) and the Centro de Musica Brasileira.
