About Pixinguinha

Pixinguinha, born Alfredo da Rocha Viana Jr., was a seminal Brazilian composer, arranger, flautist, and saxophonist. Born in 1897 in Rio de Janeiro, he is considered one of the greatest choro musicians of all time. Pixinguinha's innovative style helped to shape the genre and elevate it to new heights, blending classical and popular music elements seamlessly.

His work often delves into the depths of human emotions, touching on themes of unrequited love, heartache, and longing. Pixinguinha's compositions resonate with an emotional plea for reciprocity and the pain that accompanies unfulfilled desires. His ability to convey profound feelings through the intricate melodies and rhythms of choro has left an indelible mark on Brazilian music.
