Abstract: This work consists of a critical edition of Eleazar de Carvalho's Variations on Two Rows for Percussion and Strings, with historical background, analysis and interpretative study. The unpublished work, written in 1968, is the first Brazilian concerto for percussion. The cadenza of the concerto was written by the American percussionist Richard O'Donnell, who premiered it in 1969 with the St. Louis Symphony Orchestra under direction of the composer.;Conductor, composer and pedagogue, Eleazar de Carvalho (1912-1996) is considered one of the most important Brazilian conductors.
