Sidney Miller

Sidney Miller has been played on NTS shows including Questing w/ Zakia, with Sombrasileiro first played on 18 September 2016.

Sidney Miller (Sidney Álvaro Miller Filho Apr 18,1945 Rio de Janeiro - Jul, 16/1980 Rio de Janeiro) was an impressive composer of some jewels (recorded by several important artists) who never aroused a bigger interest from the recording industry in spite of having been a very popular artist at historic festivals. His compositions have been recorded by Nara Leão, MPB-4, Quarteto em Cy, Caetano Veloso, Alaíde Costa, and Gal Costa. In 1967, his "A Estrada e o Violeiro" was awarded for Best Lyrics at TV Record's III FMPB, defended by Nara Leão and Miller. In the same year, he recorded his first LP, Sidney Miller (Elenco), which had "A Estrada e o Violeiro" (with Nara Leão), "Maria Joana," "Marré-de-Cy," "Argumento," "O Circo," "Menina da Agulha," and "Pede Passagem," among others. Recorded only three records. But great interpreters as Nara Leão (his muse), Clara Nunes, Quarteto in Cy and Caetano Veloso, between many, had relieved to the sad beauty of its compositions. He committed suicide in 1980.
