About Me

I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4

Claudio Nucci é um cantor e compositor que expressa na sua música uma brasilidade diversa, com acentos da música rural e urbana, refletindo as muitas influências que recebeu. Ligado à memória e à intuição e unindo a tradição à modernidade, seu trabalho de compositor e cantor o faz um dos mais reconhecidos talentos da sua geração no Brasil. Nascido em Jundiaí (SP), iniciou sua carreira musical no Rio de Janeiro, sendo um dos fundadores do quarteto vocal BOCA LIVRE junto de Maurício Maestro, Zé Renato e David Tygel e tendo participado anteriormente, do grupo Semente, com Zé Luís Oliveira, Mário Adnet, Marcio Resende, Claudio Infante, Paulinho Soledade e Ricardo Mará.

Claudio Nucci's career is rich with irrefutable testimonies of musical quality that endures the tests of time. Featured in 1993's Sergio Mendes' "Brasileiro" CD winner of Grammy for Best World Music Album, or as a member of acclaimed group "Boca Livre" featured in 2003' s Ruben Blades "Mundo" CD, also winner of Grammy for Best World Music Album, Nucci's mark is unmistakable.

In 1978 together with Zé Renato, Mauricio Maestro and David Tygel, Nucci formed "Boca Livre" a group that still today is a landmark in the Brazilian music industry. Their first release, the LP self-entitled "Boca Livre" including some of Claudio's songwriting, stablished a sales record at the time surpassing 110,000 copies, top-charting in Brazil from North to South, projecting the group into the limelight of the music scene, not for a season but now for almost 30 years.

Claudio Nucci ventured also into a successful solo carrier, recording 3 albums under EMI-Odeon: "Claudio Nucci", "Volta e Vai" and "Melhor de Três". These releases were followed by "Pelo Sim, Pelo Não", an unforgettable album in the company of Zé Renato. Soon after, Claudio Nucci and Zé Renato joined Ricardo Silveira, Marcos Ariel, Zé Nogueira, João Batista and Jurim Moreira to create another success of sales and critics: "Banda Zil". The CD was released worldwide by Continental and reached unprecedented sales in the U.S.

With vocal group "Nós e Voz", Claudio is also featured on the CD "Ê Boi", nominated for the Sharp Awards.
