Great- Lesson. I really love these two tunes and look forward to working on them.
Jovino asked for suggestions/requests during this seminar so I would suggest “Chega de Saudade”. It’s one of the few top Jobim tunes that I don’t think Jovino has covered in any of his videos. Also, I really love the tune, “Casa Forte” by Edu Lobo and have recently been listening to Flora Purim’s version from her album, “Stories to Tell”. Not sure how easy it would be to do a piano arrangement for but it’s a lovely tune. Sorry if this is not the right forum for making suggestions-requests!
Hi Richard,
Apologies for the delayed response here, I wanted to edit the video before replying to you.
If you watch this again you will see I have added the light up keyboard, chord chart, and blue highlights into the video. It’s now much easier to absorb the voicings and other concepts which Jovino is demonstrating.
I have also added the chapter makings to better navigate the video contents.
Thanks for your suggestion of “Chega de Saudade” – that seminar is taking place in 3 hours here: https://www.pianogroove.com/live-seminars/chega-de-saudade/
I will add the light up keyboard and lead sheet just like this seminar. It took a lot longer than expected to edit this video to add the extra elements, but I’m happy with how it’s looking now.
I hope your get more out of it now! :–)
Cheers,
Hayden
Many thanks Hayden. That’s very helpful and definitely easier to follow now. Thanks also to you and Jovino for putting on the Chega de Saudade seminar which was great.

Hi Robert,
Please can you try watching the lessons again and let me know if you are still experiencing issues.
I have checked many videos myself, and it seems that it was a temporary video hosting issue that is now resolved. I have forwarded the error report to our developers to investigate the cause further and to ensure it doesn’t happen again.
Apologies for the issue here and let me know that the issue is fixed for you.
Cheers,
Hayden
ps. the tunes covered in this seminar are also hosted in the Brazilian lesson section, you can find them both via the links below. The videos below are broken into shorter studies so they are easier to navigate and review the content. The arrangement notation can be found in the “Downloads” section of the lesson pages:
