Heitor Villa-Lobos

Brazilian composer, Heitor Villa-Lobos, has written numerous symphonies, operas, chamber music, and concertos, among other forms, with perhaps Bachianas Brasileiras, his tribute to Bach, being one of the best-known.

However, he wrote one Broadway musical in 1948, Magdalena, which, to that date, was the most expensive show to have been produced on Broadway.
