Carta de Pedra by Guinga (1950)
 Guinga (Carlos Althier de Souza Lemos Escobar) is a Brazilian guitarist and composer born in Madureira. As a child, he was nicknamed “Gringo”, because of his pale skin, and the artistic name “Guinga” comes from the way he pronounced the word. Guinga is known for his songwriting and his skill on the guitar. He is known for drawing on many musical genres, including choro, samba, baião, frevo, modinha, waltz, foxtrot, blues, classical music, and jazz. His compositions are often harmonically and rhythmically complex, while being melodic. |
