Guilherme DeBrito

An important composer of classic sambas such as "Folhas Secas," "Pranto de Poeta," "Depois da Vida," "Quando eu me Chamar Saudade," "Meu Sofrer," "Erva Daninha," "Luto," and "Suicídio," Guilherme DeBrito's significance has been obfuscated by the giant Nelson Cavaquinho's, his most frequent partner. The duo's compositions are regarded as some of the most important samba contributions, behind Cartola's, having been recorded by many, such as Ciro Monteiro, Elis Regina, Elizeth Cardoso, Chico Buarque, Guinga, Paulinho da Viola, João Bosco, Rafael Rabello, Zizi Possi, Beth Carvalho...
