Abstract

This paper presents the professional trajectory of André Midani, a man who probably is the most important manager in the history of Brazil's phonographic industry. Midani was bom in Syria and during the 1950 decade carne to Brazil, where he immediately started on the music industry. His story is deeply connected to important Brazilian Popular Music movements such as Bossa Nova, Tropicalismo, Brazilian Black Music and the 1980's Brazilian Rock, styles whose was mainly developed inside the record labels Odeon (EMI), Philips/ Polygram (Universal Music) and Warner. In parallel, the observation of the administrative model Midani has employed, according to his own words based on the promotion ofthe musician and not the music, can offer an interesting contrast for discussing the today's scenario and the crises of phonographic industry worldwide.
