Hi! I wanted to download the Medo de Amar, but you have uploaded the wrong tune, the link leads to Falsa Baiana…
Hayden says
Hi Fredrik,
Thanks for letting me know about this. I have just fixed the PDF link.
Here is a direct link to the lead sheet: https://www.pianogroove.com/media/2023/08/Medo-de-Amar.pdf
I will add the light-up keyboard to the recording asap.
Talk soon, cheers,
Hayden

Thanks so much, Jovino, for these wonderful lessons! I particularly love the Brazilian harmonies and your explanation of the 6th as a common indicator is so helpful in locking in the sounds.

Love your style, mannerisms and the synchopated connection between your comments and the playing of the piece. Kind of a personalized embodiment of what Bossa and Samba is meant to be. Taking all this in as I work with the PDF that Hayden downloaded. As a now retired university based historian for fifty years I also like your historical and social justice insights in your various lessons. Thanks!
