Seminar Description
We explore a selection of less well-known Bossa Nova tunes. For each tune Jovino outlines harmonic considerations, accompaniment, and improvisation.
Hi! I wanted to download the Medo de Amar, but you have uploaded the wrong tune, the link leads to Falsa Baiana…
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: 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!
