============= NOTES ON THE COMPOSER ==============
Roland Dyens has called Heitor Villa-Lobos the incarnation of Brazilian music and culture, quoting Villa-Lobos as saying “The Map of Brazil is the Harmony Treaty from which I took my musical knowledge”. As to his influence on the guitar, Dyens continues by saying that Villa-Lobos' Twelve Studies, “represent for me the birth of modern guitar.” His Bachianas Brasileras are a masterful fusion of choros - simple Brazilian melodies - and the controlled structure of Bach's works, something that Villa-Lobos loved.
