Heitor Villa-Lobos has been described as 'the single most significant creative figure in 20th-century Brazilian art music'. The eleven symphonies - the enigmatic Symphony No. 5 has never been found and may not even have been written - range from the two earliest, conceived in a broadly central Central European tradition, to the final Symphony No.12 which is notable for its explosive energy, harmonic richness and rhythmic vitality.
