Biography

Soriano was born in Bahia, where he lived and worked as a truck driver, prospector, and in manual labor until he was 25.[1] He moved to São Paulo in 1959, where he began working at Rádio Nacional. His first album was issued in 1960, and his style of dramatic, sentimental songs became popular throughout Brazil. He went on to record dozens of albums and score many hits in his native country.

In 2005, Soriano was depicted in a documentary directed by Patrícia Pillar. It was titled Waldick - Sempre No Meu Coração (Waldick - Always In My Heart).[2]
