Praised as one of the greatest talents of the Brazilian guitar today (O Tempo), and as one of the most active and brilliant soloists from his generation (Acervo Digital do Violão Brasileiro) by the specialized press, Octávio Deluchi had his solo debut at Carnegie Hall at the age of 24 and has more than 15 awards in national and international levels. Touring frequently in Brazil and the United States, Deluchi had appearances in cities such as New York, São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, Philadelphia, Little Rock, Belo Horizonte, and more. As a performer, he has been featured in important venues and series, such as Dizzy's Club at Lincoln Center, Composer's Now, Americas Society, Odeon Guitar Series, Musik Expedition International Music Festival, BNDES, to name a few. Octávio has collaborated with a wide variety of artists, between performances, premieres, and commissions, such as Sergio Assad, João Luiz, Vicente Paschoal, Emmanuele Baldini, Tania Leon, Rosana Diniz, Gabriele Leite, Eduardo Guterres, Guido Campos, and more. His commercial releases showcase his remarkable aptitudes across a wide-ranging repertoire spanning from 19th-century to South American repertoire and collaborations with young composers. Deluchi coordinates the guitar festival Mostra de Violão da Lira Ceciliana and is a guest soloist and resident professor at Festival de Música de Prados, one of the most traditional and old music festivals in Brazil.

Saudade: Brazilian Soirée

The Portuguese word “Saudade'' is widely recognized because of the lack of translation into other languages. Despite that, there are different attempts in order to explain it: some people may refer to the feeling of deeply missing someone, others may think about longing and a past experience that is gone, or even losing something you intensely loved. Despite all of those descriptions being more or less accurate, “Saudade” is also the feeling of being far far away from your home country, and since you are a long time gone, that place you knew will never come back, even if you come back. The repertoire of this program presents powerful pieces by Brazilian composers that address the problem of “saudade” in different ways, or are pieces that trigger that feeling because of its sound familiarity.

Augustin Barrios - Choro da Saudade, Danza Paraguaya

Heitor Villa-Lobos - Preludes nº 1, 2, 3

Dilermando Reis - Eterna Saudade, Conversa de Baiana, Xodó da Baiana

Vicente Paschoal - Dedication nº 1

Geraldo Vespar - Etude nº 18

Marco Pereira - Bate-Coxa

Astor Piazzolla - Verano Porteño (Arr. Assad)
