Marcelo Bruno
Member since Jun-25-06
I live in Brasília, Brazil's federative capital, where I work at a public school. Music and chess are some of my greatest loves, although I like each field of the knowledge. My interest is to get more and more old chess games (I mean old until the earliest beginning of the 20th cenury); I use to play in the same style of the players from this period and consider that their games are my main source of inspiration. I also have experience on giving chess classes at schools in Brasília.

Marcelo Bruno: He and another writer did an excellent article about Jacob Yuchtman: they were awarded with the best prize for a chess biography.

Marcelo Bruno: Please change the year that he was the first time Brazilian champion: the correct is 1927 (regrettably most sources have 1925).
 
   Apr-28-11 Licurgo Holzmann (replies)
 
Marcelo Bruno: It is a pity that you have only one game played by my cousin Licurgo Holzmann, but I would like first to clarify that he won 4 times the Paraná State Championship (thrice without a single loss, once winning 100%). On the other hand, the ChessBase software has at least all the ...

Marcelo Bruno: <Calli> If I am not mistaken, La Stratégie from 1903 comments something about his obituary, but I don't remember what is written there. I took a sudden glance in an exemplar that belongs to São Paulo Chess Club.
 
   Mar-26-11 Emmanuel Schiffers (replies)
 
Marcelo Bruno: An interesting detail: his name in the English edition of the Hastings tournament in 1895 is written "Emanuel G. A. Schiffers". Really curious.

Marcelo Bruno: Hi, folks! Does someone have his games with Attakinsky and Defendarov?
