Sérgio and Eduardo Abreu 简历:
Born in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil in 1948 and 1949, respectively, Sérgio and Eduardo Abreu followed Turíbio dos Santos and Carlos Barbosa-Lima in the first wave of Brazilian classical guitarists to achieve international recognition. Their grandfather, Ant?nio Rebello, was an influential guitar teacher in Rio and took charge of their early musical education. After quickly outgrowing the home education environment, they started studying under the direction of the enigmatic Argentinian guitarist Monina Távora, an accomplished Segovia student, adept of a very disciplined and perfectionist practice regimen.
The duo performed in public for the first time in 1963 with great success. However, following their teacher's advice, they kept their concert activity to a minimum during these formative years. Only after Sérgio won the first prize in the prestigious Paris International Guitar Competition in 1968 and Eduardo was awarded the second prize in the subsequent year, their international concert and recording careers finally started in full gear. A typical concert program would start with the duo performing pieces from the renaissance and the baroque, followed by Sérgio's solo showcase . Eduardo would open the second half of the program, later joined by his brother for a selection of nineteenth and twentieth century guitar duos. Their performances were characterized by the obsessive attention to both details of guitar technique and musical presentation.
In the early seventies, the duo's career was abruptly interrupted when Eduardo decided to abandon his concert activities. He has since pursued a career in engineering, graduating from the Federal University of Rio the Janeiro, continuing his studies at the University of California, Santa Barbara, earning his Ph. D. degree from the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering. Sérgio continued his concert and recording career until the early eighties when he switched his attention to guitar building. Today, he is a highly regarded luthier producing instruments inspired by the Hermann Hauser guitars he played throughout his performing career. |
