Clara Sverner

Erudite pianist Clara Sverner studied with José Kliass in São Paulo, Brazil, Ouis Hildebrand in Geneva, Switzerland, and Leonard Shure in NY, U.S. A researcher of essential and ignored composers of Brazilian music, she’s been documenting albums with Paulo Moura that transit within the frontier of well-known and erudite music since 1983. She’s documented 15 albums up to now, almost all specialized in Brazilian music of great composers: Villa Lobos, Eduardo Souto, Tom Jobim and Pixinguinha, Almeida Prado, Gilberto Mendes, and Ronaldo Miranda. She devoted two LPs along with a Compact disc (released internationally by Naxos, 1994) towards the amazing body of function of Glauco Velásquez. In 1999, she documented a Compact disc with compositions by Chiquinha Gonzaga, having previously documented two LPs focused on her functions. Her performances overseas consist of countries like Japan, U.S., Britain, Germany, Israel, Spain, and France.
