20 Brazilian Jazz Tunes

Transcription

1 20 Brazilian Jazz Tunes compiled by Jovino Santos Neto for educational use only These tunes were chosen for their simple themes and potential for soloing and arrangements. Most of them are standards and have been favorites of Brazilian musicians for many years. They are presented here in a simple format, so that creative musicians anywhere can use them as a means to develop their Brazilian musical skills. Please note that these compositions are presented here for educational purposes only. Any person who is interested in recording or employing these charts for commercial uses should obtain a license from the respective publishers. Available recordings of these tunes can be found by doing a search by title at: Below I have selected some rhythmic patterns as samples of the major styles prevalent in the music of Brazil. They are represented below in 2 layers, shown on 2 staves. The grooves are shown as simple pairs of 2/4 measures, which may be combined into longer patterns and extended to generate different meters as well. For pianists, a suggested use would be to practice them both in a solo setting (when the 2 hands represent both layers) and in a rhythm section context (where the functions of the layers may be assigned to different instruments). For a selected discography or listening suggestions, I recommend an Internet search using the names mentioned in this text. There are many web sites in Portuguese and in English that document the biographies of the musicians, as well as online retailers that sell their recordings, such as and I also recommend to anyone interested in becoming familiar with these styles to learn the melodies of songs, as they will become invaluable elements in the internalizing of the architecture of each style.
