Description: Commissioned by Cannonball Musical Instruments, this American Brazilian samba is perfect for advancing groups. Similar to American Latin jazz artists Chuck Mangione and Spyro Gyro, this samba original also channels the infectious music of Brazil. An open solo section (written or ad lib) and a driving shout chorus will make this an exciting closer to your program. The 1st Alto part doubles on soprano sax, however an optional 1st Alto only part is provided. A guitar chord chart by Jim Greeson is included in each set. Duration 6:10.
