This is part of the material that we saw in today's workshop, specially the ones related with the
brazilian Choro:
For listening
Three versions that I really like, all of them brazilians, deeply connected with the roots of this
music.
- Heitor Villa-Lobos itself, playing Choro 1 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UZkEYK4WKKg
- Fabio Zanon playing Choro 1 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M6CByS-rl8k
- Turibio Santos playing Choro 1 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lqnVCIzyVEU
Classic way of playing choro, by the band "Epoca do Ouro", the composition "Brejeiro" by the
composer Ernesto Nazareth https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=skQKYbeG5K0
"Brasil toca Choro", a beautiful TV program dedicated to choro and the relation with guitar, we
didn't see this in the workshop but I definitely recommend this
