Antonio Carlos Ribeiro Barbosa Lima (born 17 December 1944) is a Brazilian guitarist born in São Paulo. He devotes most of his time as a recitalist on international concert tours and regularly appears as a soloist with numerous major orchestras. ==Early development== Born on 17 December 1944 in São Paulo, Brazil, Barbosa-Lima grew up in the Brooklyn district of the city. He states that he began playing the guitar aged seven.〔Mel Bay 2010〕 Barbosa-Lima recalls that his father, Manuel Carlos, had hired a music instructor to teach him how to play the guitar.〔Del Casale 1998, p.8.〕 The guitar lessons were then transferred from the father to the son, and the child became known in the neighborhood as a prodigy. After two years of lessons with Benedito Moreira, the young man was introduced to Brazilian guitarist composer Luiz Bonfá, at the time one of the leading musicians in the field.〔Del Casale 1998, p. 8.〕 Under the strong recommendation of Bonfa, the young Carlos was directed to the father of the classical guitar school of Brasil, Isaias Savio.〔Del Casale 1998, p. 8.〕 At the behest of family friends and musical acquaintances, and with the firm support of his parents, the young Carlos publicly debuted at a solo concert hall appearance (in São Paulo) in November, 1957, when he was twelve years old.〔GFA〕 The immediate rave reviews and enthusiastic public acclaim led to a subsequent invitation for the young guitarist to make his concert debut in Rio de Janeiro, at the time capital of Brazil, preceded by his television debut on a variety style TV show that featured young, up and coming Artists. This was March 1958, Barbosa-Lima was thirteen.〔Del Casale 1998, p.8〕 These two public appearances led to a recording contract with the then up and coming Chantecler label, initially part of the RCA Brasil group. The LP recording, called "Dez Dedos Magicos Num Violão De Ouro" was released in June 1958, when he was 13 years old.〔Mel Bay 2010〕 In 1960 Barbosa-Lima began life on the road, which continues extensively till this day. Trips to Montevideo, Uruguay, and eastern Brazil became common place.〔Del Casale 1998〕 In 1967 at the age of 23, Barbosa-Lima made his American debut in Washington, D.C.〔Del Casale 1998〕 Excellent reviews followed and Barbosa-Lima's concert career expanded across the United States, Central and South America.〔Del Casale 1998〕 Barbosa-Lima was now making his own arrangements for guitar and in 1964 he released an album of arrangements by the popular Brazilian songwriter, Catullo. Close friends of Barbosa-Lima at the time heard these arrangements and encouraged the guitarist to continue on the path of arranging for the guitar.〔Del Casale 1998〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Carlos Barbosa-Lima」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
