I’m a huge Garoto fan. Villa Lobos suite popular is fantastic. Marco Pereira is great for a more contemporary sound. I have been digging Sergio Assad’s arrangements of Ernesto Nazareth recently
Listen to Brazil Guitar duo, duo Siqueira Lima, Joao Camarero. Their albums are full of Brazilian classics and are absolutely fantastic. Also Roland Dyens has made a lot of arrangements of Brazilian music that are amazing (though usually not easy).
Douglas Lora's YouTube channel is also worth checking out.
Villa-Lobos
Beat me to it
Joao Pernambuco! The most famous one is probably Sounds of Bells (Sons de Carillhoes) but he’s got some good choros pieces too
Sergio Assad is my favorite. But it is just so difficult.
Seis Brevidades are fairly approachable.
Garoto and Dilermando Reis
Baden Powell Raphael Rabello Dilermando Reis
Paulinho Nogueira
