LETTER ON THE DEATH OF A NOTE EMILIO TERRAZA

Emilio married my cousin Marly in France and ended up coming to Brazil where he had to fight hard for its recognition as a musician and composer. After working for the National Association of Musicians teaching our popular authors to write their songs or even doing it for them, now the University of Piahui, my colleague and friend Elcio mounted as another initiative to transform the north pole in the academic time than it was in the right plan with the school and the school pernambuco bahiana, which left great intellectuals and artists, among others.
Then he ended the University of Brasilia where my colleague and friend Claudio Santoro managed to keep a school of music revolutionary, for which contributed enormously talented pedagogue Emilio. The note of UNB are reprinted below gives an idea of \u200b\u200bits synthetic importance.
For me the journey of Emilio is also and especially the death of a friend bully, always angry, as he formed this great Argentine anarchist philosopher José Ingenieros, delighted with their discoveries with their educational and musical universe so wide from the classics to popular music.

died on Friday, January 14 at age 82 , pianist and composer Emilio Terraza. Author of dozens of piano pieces, string quartets and works for chamber ensemble, the retired professor of the Department of Music, University of Brasilia suffered from pulmonary emphysema. He was hospitalized for over a week in the Intensive Care Unit St. Luke's Hospital in the city of Natal, Rio Grande do Norte, where he lived since 2006.

Before joining UNB in \u200b\u200b1969, Emilio was Terraza alternate director of the University Symphony Orchestra of Rio de Janeiro, professor at the Instituto Villa-Lobos, and organized the Documentation Service of the Association of Musical Musicians from Brazil, where he also served as entity counselor.

Born in Argentina in 1929, the musician remained at UNB until 1972, when more than two hundred teachers have resigned. Resumed academic life at the Federal University of Piaui, where he created and coordinated the Department of Arts and Music Department. In 1975, he returned to UNB, creating and directing the course of Basic Music Shop, first established in Instituto Villa-Lobos. The activity attracted the interest of musicians from Brazil and abroad, why Emilio Terraza was often invited to give lectures.

colleague Emilio Terraza since 1965, Professor Jorge Antunes, Department of Music at the University of Brasília, remember that the discipline "pedagogically opened hundreds of young heads for trial of avant-garde classical." "We held several jobs together as orchestras, chamber groups and participating in discussions enriching aesthetic," he says. He describes Emilio Terraza as "the little man, friendly and talkative, affable friend and electric, the tango virtuoso, composer creative, "and that even after 52 years in Brazil, never dropped the Porteño accent. "He leaves us very homesick," he says.

FRAGILE HEALTH - Emilio Terraza arrived in Brazil in 1958 when he married the Brazilian pianist Marly Terraza, who died in 2006. In Argentina, he studied piano with R. Ehrlich and composition with J. Ficher. In Paris, a scholarship from the governments of Argentina and France, was a student of Toni Aubin. In addition to piano pieces, duos and trios, composed two string quartets and works for chamber ensemble. His Gait Little Children, for orchestra, 1952, was premiered in Rio de Janeiro in 1960.

When he moved to Brasilia for Christmas, now no longer made public appearances. "He smoked a lot and over the years grew to health increasingly fragile, with serious breathing difficulties," says one of three sons, also named Emilio Terraza. "In the last three months, entered and left the hospital several times," she reveals. Emilio describes that arrived with the two brothers to visit his father when doctors reported the death. "Neither came to see him alive," he laments, recalling then the last memory she has of his father playing in public in Pirenópolis.
