Launch January 2006 - After 5 years of research on Brazilian music, it was in 2005 that Renato Velasco completed a very important method in his work as a guitar teacher. In January 2006, Editions Henry Lemoine published his first guitar method, "The Brazilian guitar". It is based on the study of traditional Brazilian rhythms and composed of texts briefly presenting the history of popular music. It reveals the different genres typical of each region with examples of more than a hundred rhythmics for the guitar. You will discover typical of the south-east: bossa, samba and choro ..., to the north-east the baião, the frevo, the afoxé ..., to the north the carimbó, the lambada ..., to the south : la rancheira, le chamamé .... At the end of the method, you will benefit from a chord dictionary and a synoptic table with the harmonic and melodic characteristics. This method is based on traditional music using sheet music and CD recordings. These musics are taught in oral tradition but I chose to put them in writing on stave to facilitate access to certain musicians.
