Abstract

This work aims to propose an educational guideline for the performance of Guia Prático Para Piano n.1 (1932), of Brazilian composer Heitor Villa-Lobos (1887-1959). The pieces that belong to Guia Prático n.1 are: Acordei de Madrugada, A Maré Encheu, A Roseira, Manquinha, Na Corda da Viola. The analytical processes chosen for the guidelines, include a survey of Villa-Lobos compositional procedures, an examination of the musical structure and the pianistic technical aspects required for their performance. The results contributed significantly for the elaboration of the performance and also brought up a possibility of using Heitor Villa-Lobos music as a tool in the pedagogy of performance. The sounding result is recorded on the CD attached (AU)
