Joaquim Antônio da Silva Callado
Joaquim Antônio da Silva Calado, Jr. (or Callado; Rio de Janeiro, July 11, 1848 – Rio de Janeiro, March 20, 1880) was a Brazilian composer and flautist. Da Silva is considered one of the creators of the choro genre of music. His band, O Choro do Callado, used an ebony flute, two guitars and a cavaquinho, and was noted for facility at improvisation. Da Silva wrote and co-authored many choros, as a new way of interpreting modinhas, lundus, waltzes and polkas. His work was an inspiration to his friend and pupil, Viriato Figueira, and his friend and band member, the female composer Chiquinha Gonzaga. |
