Hi Richard,

Yes, we cannot rule out that for whatever reason Dutra might have left instructions to destroy his scores.

David

Hi Chris,

I'm not adverse to moving on. If someday some hard evidence is unveiled about Dutra's scores, great! But in the meantime all we have now is a mystery and conjectures about it.

David

I am moving on. Unless something comes out of my investigations so dar I have finished.

and again !

This is information and not conjecture:

Eduardo Dutra existed
He had a son called Farnésio
Farnésio is Dick Farney
Dick has a living son who is called Eduardo
His estate is managed by the niece of his second wife who is... Mariangela!

Now if it is this niece who posted or someone else using her name is another thing, still, it seems I owe an apology.

This horse is truly dead as well

As investors say, "If you drop a dead horse from the top of the Empire State Building, it still bounces".

Probably only after having built up a considerable amount of gas *yuck*

David,

This was very beautiful playing. I like the piece. You conveyed
the intensely emotional, at times brooding, at times assertive
nature. The harmonies and progressions in this piece are compelling
and interesting.

Thank you for a captivating performance.

Hi Kaila,

Thanks for taking time to hear this nearly unknown piece of Dutra, and also for your kind praise on my playing. So glad you enjoyed it!

David
