João Eduardo de Salles Nobre, known as Dudu Nobre (Rio de Janeiro, RJ, November 6, 1974), is a Brazilian composer and singer.He is the son of the engineer João Nobre and of Anita Nobre. His mother, Anita Nobre, controlled three pagode bands, where Dudu, already in his infancy, used to play with tam-tam and pandeiro with the same ease that his neighbors were applied in marbles. And he did not reject this apprenticeship in his backyard. As a result, when he was six years old, he started to study classic piano, and when he was nine he received the instrument that would never separate from him—the cavaquinho.
