Eduardo Nadruz, known in the artistic world as Edu, was born of Arab immigrants on October 13, 1916 in the city of Jaguarão in the state of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. His first contact with the harmonica took place in the same casual and unpremeditated way in which every young boy tries to pick out well-known melodies on this simple instrument. In 1926, a certain Professor Charles who was a representative of the harmonica manufacturer Hohner, arrived in Pelotas where he held a contest in which about 300 students from the Gonzaga and Pelotense schools took part. The prize for the winner of the contest was 200 mil reis. A preliminary round was held and fifteen finalists were chosen to participate in the competition to be held at the Teatro Guarani. Edu was one of them. The theater was packed for the finals. Edu was to be the last to play. Simplicio Garcia, a boy from Dom Pedrito, received enthusiastic applause for his playing of the Argentine tango "El Pañuelito Blanco" and he was evidently the public’s favorite. As the contest went on, the public started to interrupt the performance of the other candidates with hoots and shouts of "Simplicio’s already won!". This was the atmosphere when Edu’s turn came. The public went on shouting, but indifferent to all this, Edu started his performance with a selection of opera melodies, starting with Tosca and then proceeding with Faust, Rigoletto, Madame Butterly, La Traviata, Cavalleria Rusticana, and finishing it off with the great overture of the opera O Guarani. The public went wild with this last surprise. Having been acclaimed as the winner, Edu was carried in triumph along the streets of the city and won the prize of 200 mil reis. Eduardo Nadruz Filho
