Mario Zan e Seu Acordeao, Com Solistas e Coro - Brincando de Escola com Mario Zan (1959)

Mario Zan, the international renowned Brazilian accordion player has passed yesterday by a stroke in Sao Paulo. Mario San was considered by Luiz Gonzaga, o Rei da Sanfona, as the best Brazilian accordion player of all times.

This sad note came to me by a friend that also sent to Loronixers a Mario Zan LP for a tribute, Mario Zan e Seu Acordeao, Com Solistas e Coro - Brincando de Escola com Mario Zan (1959), for RCA. This LP has a curiosity, track 08 has the first recording of the Brazilian Singer Wanderley Cardoso, a child by that time. It is a child record and Mario Zan accordion can be heard in all tracks. Tracks include:

01 - Brincando de Escola (Ruby / Osmar Zan)
02 - Criança Sapeca (Mário Zan / Nonô Basílio)
03 - Vou Estudar (Osmar Zan / Ruby)
04 - Uma História Divertida (Piraci)
05 - Homenagem a Mamãe (Nonô Basílio / Osmar Zan)
06 - Quarto Centenário (Mário Zan / J. M. Alves)
07 - Nosso Brasil (Mário Zan / Arlindo Pinto)
08 - Festinha do Papai (Nonô Basílio / Osmar Zan)
