Camargo Guarnieri pertenece a la generación de compositores brasileños que prosiguió a Heitor Villa-Lobos y Óscar Lorenzo Fernandes. Su música yace entre el claro etnicismo – alentado por su fervor nacional – y por su gran admiración hacia técnicas musicales contemporáneas. Su Primera Sinfonía es una obra puramente abstracta que se sirve de ritmos étnicos y lenguaje tonal con fines puramente artísticos.

Camargo Guarnieri belongs to the generation of Brazilian composers that came right after Heitor Villa-Lobos and Oscar Lorenço Fernandes. His music lies between plain ethnic roots – fostered by national fervor – and great admiration for contemporary music techniques. His First Symphony is a purely abstract work which is based on ethnic rhythms and tonal language with purely artistic aims.
