The son of a prosperous farmer and his Methodist wife, he has grown up under the influence of both the Christian, Protestant faith and of violeiros, the troubadours that range all Brazilian hinterland singing their own and others’s compositions, with themes related to the cordel literature.
He tried to study Music with a Swiss professor living in Brazil, but their ideas about roots music were incompatible, Elomar having a vision both more dynamic and more linked to the mentality of the people, while still fully committed to the sophistication and quality of Classical music; while his teacher wanted, and produced, a fully Contemporary music with influences from the region. Elomar’s music, while keeping the Classical forms of operas, cantatas, oratorios and other sacred music, has a distinctive Mediæval flavour, Elomar maintaining in his characteristic, idiosyncratic speech that ‘Brazilian Northeast is the last time of the Middle Ages’ (‘O Nordeste é o último tempo da Idade Média’).
He was Secretary of Urbanism for Vitória da Conquista for a while. Now he keeps a home at the city but spends most of his time in his goat-raising farm, where he shares in the work of the farm and direct it, besides writing down his music. He says he has most of it ready in his mind, and he only asks God time enough to live to be able to write it all down.
Elomar has a passion for European culture with a strong preference for the French, while totally rejecting the Anglo-Saxon one. He is nearly a Luddite, thinking all technology misused. He is deeply religious and thinks all modern European culture dead and sick.
His music, while not too difficult to hear, is quite sophisticated and manages to successfully combine both modern and Mediæval elements. It carries expressions of deep faith both by the author himself and the poetical egos. It has some striking themes to it, some universal – like Incelença ad Moribundum Solem, a requiem thanking God for all the services the Sun has performed us, to be sung when it finally dies somewhere in the future – and some parochial, like the fate of specific, if fictional violeiros and migrants from the dry, feudalised lands of the Northeast to the rich, industrial lands of the Southeast.
Some connoisseurs consider him the greatest living musician, because he manages to do Classical music that is modern and relevant to today's time while still being deeply stepped in his region’s mentality and beliefs, totally avoiding the Nihilism seen as dominating modern art in general and Contemporary music specifically.
From 2000 to 2004 he lived at Lagoa Real, trying to form a ‘sertaneza’ (country) opera project.

Josefina, sai cá fora e vem vê
Ó os forro ramiado vai chuvê
Vai trimina reduzir toda criação
Das bandas de lá do ri' Gavião
Chiquera pra cá, já roncô o truvão
Futuca a túia, pega o catadô
Vamo plantar o feijão no pó
Mãe, prurdença, inda num cuieu o ái
O ái roxo dessa lavora tardã
Diligença pega o pano e cum balai
Vai cum tua irmã, vai num rumo só
Vai cuiê o ái, o ai de tua avó
Futuca a túia, pega o catadô
Vamo plantar o feijão no pó
Lua nova, sussarana vai passá
Seda branca, na passada ela levô
Ponta d'unha, lua fina risca no céu
A onça prisunha, a cara de réu
O pai do chiquêro, a gata comeu
Foi um trovejo c'ua zagaia só
Foi tanto sangue de dá dó
Os cigano já subiro bêra ri'
É só danos, todo ano nunca vi
Paciênça, já num guento a pirsiguição
Já só caco véi, nesse meu sertão
Tudo que juntei foi só pra ladrão
Futuca a túia, pega o catadô
Vamo plantar o feijão no pó
Futuca a túia, pega o catadô
Vamo plantar o feijão no pó
Futuca a túia, pega o catadô
Vamo plantar o feijão no pó
