Descrição

Laurindo Almeida (1917-1995) belongs to an elite group of Brazilian/American guitarists, who by composing important works for the guitar reinstated the instrument in his native country as worthy of serious musical study. Stylistically, hiscompositions synthesize his classical background, Afro-Brazilian rhythms, traditional Brazilian music, and American jazz. This collection presents Almeidas solos preserving the original left and right hand fingerings. The fingering is unique andtells us something about his skills as a professional guitarist. It also reflects the Brazilian school of guitar technique in the 1930s. Written in standard notation only.
