Roberto Paiva

Having released, as an interpreter, the essential composers Geraldo Pereira and Luís Vieira, Roberto Paiva also was the first ever to record “Se Todos Fossem Iguais a Você” (Tom Jobim/Vinícius de Moraes) and many other compositions from the seminal de Moraes perform Orfeu da Conceição, which inaugurated the collaboration of both composers and influenced Marcel Camus in his film Orfeu perform Carnaval. The recording was the LP using the soundtrack from the perform and premiered in 1956. Paiva’s biggest strikes (apart from “Menino de Braçanã” by Luís Vieira), had been using the Carnaval tunes “O Trem Atrasou” (Paquito/Artur Vilarinho/Estanislau Silva) and “Marcha perform Conselho” (Paquito/Romeu Gentil). While still an adolescent, Roberto Paiva received a novice competition in the Rádio Clube Fluminense (Niterói, Rio) and was employed soon later on to just work at the Rádio Mayrink Veiga. Acquiring buddies with Nonô and Laurindo de Almeida, Paiva documented in 1939 his 1st 78 rpm with “Último Samba” (de Almeida) as well as the valse “Jardim das Flores Raras” (Nonô/Francisco Mattoso). For the Carnaval of 1940, he exposed the sambista Geraldo Pereira saving one of is own sambas for the very first time with “Se Você Sair Chorando” (Pereira/Nelson Teixeira). He’d later launch additional tunes by Pereira, such as for example “Lembras-te Daquela Zinha?,” “Já Tenho Outra” (Ari Monteiro/Pereira), and “Brigaram Pra Valer” (Pereira/José Batista). He re-recorded “Pedro perform Pedregulho” (documented earlier from the composer) and by Roberto Martins, “Devagar com a Louça” (Martins/Oswaldo Santiago), “A Valsa dos Noivos” (Martins/Mário Rossi), and “Leva Meu Coração” (Martins/Mário Lago). Shifting to Rádio Educadora, Paiva documented his initial big Carnaval strike, the samba “O Trem Atrasou” (Paquito/Artur Vilarinho/Estanislau Silva). In 1949, he still left the Educadora and spent twelve months touring Brazil. Upon his come back, he became a member of the Rádio Guanabara, and in 1951, he visited Rádio Tupi.
