Product Description:
****DISCONTINUED AS OF JUNE 3, 2005.****

Co-written by two native Brazilian guitarists, this book presents ten solos based on the most influential and best-known forms and rhythms found in Brazilian popular music: the maxixe, choro, samba, bosso, frevo, baiao, xota, afoxe, guarania, and the lambada. The authors offer a detailed analysis of each style, defining its features in terms of form, melody and rhythmic motives, and commenting upon its cultural and geographical origans, principal proponents, typical instrumental combinations, and other aspects of the style. All selections are written in standard notation and tablature. The book's companion CD features all of the pieces in the book preformed by the author/composers.
