From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Paulinho Nogueira (Campinas, 8 ottobre 1929 – São Paulo, 2 agosto 2003)[1] was a Brazilian guitarist, composer and singer.

Biography

He was an eclectic composer and his influences ranging from Bossa Nova to Bach. Paulinho Nogueira created the craviola, a musical instrument similar to the acoustic guitar. He was the teacher of Toquinho.[2]

Craviola

The Craviola is a stringed musical instrument designed by Paulinho Nogueira and built by manufacturer Giannini.

Craviolas have a distinct asymmetric body shape comparable to an acoustic guitar. Their timbre is a combination of sounds from a harpsichord and a viola caipira, hence the portmanteau (Cravo is the Portuguese word for harpsichord).

Craviolas can be six-string or twelve-string (either nylon or steel) and are produced solely by Giannini.
