Paulo Bellinati is a Brazilian guitarist, composer and arranger from São Paulo who began his career in the late 20th century, working across classical guitar and Brazilian popular music traditions such as choro and MPB. His work combines classical technique with rhythms and harmonic language drawn from choro, samba and other Brazilian forms, and his solo guitar arrangements and original compositions have entered the contemporary classical-guitar repertoire while helping to bridge popular Brazilian traditions and the concert stage.
