a novelty that was missing in the quality menu … it is a strong dish for gourmets of refined palates of rhythmic music. Great!

Yes I agree @lucianoaita425004 … Jovino’s Brazilian rhythms and grooves will be a great addition to the website.

I will have more to share this coming week.

Great news guys… the whole “Brazilian Grooves” course has been recorded today.

Some really amazing insights into Brazilian music, bossa nova, samba, and a selection of wonderful Latin jazz standard arrangements.

More updates to come so stay tuned

Here’s a taster of the tutorial on “Corcovado”:

The 3 jazz standard lessons will be ready today or tomorrow:

  • Corcovado
  • The Girl From Ipanema
  • Wave

They are all compositions by Antonio Carlos Jobim and there will be full transcriptions for each of Jovino’s arrangements. It might take a little longer to produce these transcriptions due to the nature of notating Latin rhythms.

There are also 4 or 5 theory lessons which explain:

  • the background and history of Brazilian Music
  • Brazilian rhythm study
  • Brazilian grooves in major and minor keys
  • the role of the diminished chord in Brazilian music
  • inner voice movement
  • Soloing technique for Latin styles

More updates to follow.
