  Francisco Mignone - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Francisco Paulo Mignone (September 3, 1897–February 2, 1986) is one of the most significant figures in Brazilian classical music, and one of the most significant Brazilian composers after Heitor Villa-Lobos.
Much of Mignone's music is strongly nationalistic in flavor; influenced by the nationalistic movement of his former schoolmate and teacher, the musicologist and writer Mário de Andrade, Mignone uses the folk and popular melodies and forms of his native Brazil as a basis for his compositions.
Mignone was capable of writing in a variety of styles and his works of the early 1960s and beyond are noted for their eclecticism; it is difficult to find any other unifying feature.

 Classics Today.com - Your Online Guide to Classical Music
The son of Italian immigrants, Mignone's music sounds like an Afro-Brazilian homage to Respighi, Puccini, and Stravinsky--but as happens so often in these cases, whatever he may lack in sheer originality he more than makes up for in melodic spontaneity and in finding a mix of ingredients that is his alone.
For the most part the music is atmospheric and gently subdued, with beautiful melodies strikingly scored for orchestra and prominent organ, the timbre of which is superbly melded with that of the larger ensemble.
Mignone stands proudly in their company, and as I said, we can only pray to hear more of him.
