Brazilian Electric Guitar (eBook + Online Audio)
by Flavio Henrique Medeiros & Carlos de Lemos Almada
The main goal of this book is to present what could be called Brazilian guitar today, working melodically, harmonically, and rhythmically in some of the most important Brazilian musical styles. We have chosen to use two electric guitars in these arrangements (but in the song “Violeiros e Cantadores”, which is for solo electric guitar), so that the essential functions of the guitar - rhythm, melody, and harmony - might be expressed in the clearest and best way in each differ...

Brazilian Music for Piano: Part 2 (eBook)
by Flavio Henrique Medeiros, Carlos Almada & Thiago Lyra
This book consists of twelve original piano pieces composed by the authors: six sambas and six bossas. The sambas themselves display a varied range of derived styles: samba-de-roda, sambo, partido alto, samba amaxixado, and also the 'pure' samba, in two of the pieces. The pieces reflect the rich musical tradition of Brazil and serve as excellent solo piano pieces.

Ernesto Nazareth Guitar Solo Anthology (eBook)
by Flavio Henrique Medeiros and Carlos de Lemos Almada
A collection of 28 Ernesto Nazareth compositions expertly transcribed for classic guitar solo.One of the major difficulties in trying to arrange Ernesto Nazareth's themes for any instrument, but the piano, is to separate the melodic line from its accompaniment: both are so closely together (that is one of the strongest characteristics of his pianistic style of composition) that it becomes almost impossible to treat one of the features disregarding the other. If one ...

Violin Solos on Brazilian Themes (eBook)
by Flavio Henrique Medeiros, Carlos Almada & Thiago Lyra
Brazil offers a great and luxurious musical variety, not only for its large extension of land, but also for the multiple cultural interchange established along centuries among the several peoples which contributed to the forming of its rich and varied musical map. From that triple (though not always conscious) alliance among the native Indigenous, the European colonizer and the African (those latter brought here as slave workers), resulted a "Brazility" feeling which is common to every country side, despite...

Brazilian Mandolin (eBook + Online Audio)
by Flavio Henrique Medeiros and Carlos Almada
The mandolin was brought to Brazil by Portuguese colonists in the 15th and 16th centuries, and eventually worked its way into traditional Brazilian music. The principal aim of this book is to present an overview of the several faces of the mandolin in Brazil. In this book's eighteen progressively arranged character studies, the mandolin student will find, besides a great number of aspects of the idiomatic technique of the instrument (i.e., changes of fingering positions, double stops, tremolos, arpeggios, l...

13 Easy Brazilian Choros for Solo Guitar (eBook + Online Audio)
by Carlos Almada
As one can easily imagine, it would be very hard for a guitar student to start reading the scores of the traditional choro repertoire, most of them with large number of technical difficulties. It would be much better if they could start with some easier pieces - of intermediate level - in order to be presented to the choro language in a more gradual and appropriate manner. That is the main goal of this book. It has 13 studies (in the 13 more commonly used keys for the choro guitar) written in a reduced form...
