By Sergio Mendes & Brasil '66. By Burt Bacharach and Hal David. Arranged by Christopher J. Malin. 20th Century,Jazz,Pop,Standards. Individual part. 2 pages. Christopher J. Malin #887699. Published by Christopher J. Malin (A0.1297727).
Solo jazz guitar chord/melody arrangement with tablature. Seldom heard standard in this style. Beautiful, instantly recognizable melody. One of Bacharach/David's finer pieces. A sensual piece of music. Should be played as such. Play in a legato style with subtle finger vibrato on the long single notes. I like to play this on a guitar equiped with a vibrato to also add a little flair to the ending chords. Have fun with this one!
This piece makes you stand out as a solo jazz guitarist of all idioms. Some chords are played as triads or dyads. I tend to use a minimalist style that keeps the important parts of the music. Sounds great on acoustic and electric guitars.
