I met Tats Nagashima the founder of Taiyo Music in 1968. We became friends for life and Taiyo Music has represented my music ever since.
I'm very proud to be associated with Taiyo Music who has always been a great promotor of Brazilian music in Japan. I wish Taiyo Music continues success and another years of growth and prosperity.

Taiyo has represented my music for many years and, during that time, I've enjoyed many wonderful covers of my compositions. I feel very fortunate to have them as my publishers because they are, first and foremost, music lovers. They have always had the highest regard for my creative work and I very much appreciate the continuity I've shared with them over the years. Wishing them continued success and, as always, Health, Prosperity, Happiness.
