Beachfront Bossa

Bossa at its best! This accessible bossa nova chart provides students with an introduction to one of the most well-known styles of Brazilian music. There is enough syncopation to be interesting but still playable by all. The open solo section is for anyone; for soloists who don't want to improvise, there's a suggested solo provided in all the parts. As with all First Place for Jazz charts, this tune features flexible instrumentation. It can be performed by the full jazz ensemble but will also sound full and complete with as few as nine players.
