The audition of the anthological recordings made by the duo in the 1940s was the basis for this work.For this second volume we selected 12 songs recorded on disc or simply performed by the duo on radio bradcasts. Among these are included the works of other authors, besides those written by Pixinguinha e Benedito Lacerda. <\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p> <strong>Songbook<\/strong>All songs are arranged with the melody on the left page and the counterpoint on the right-hand page so that two performers will be able to read together the two voices.To begin with we wrote the flute (in C, to be played one octave higher) and the tenor sax (in Bb, sounding an octave below, naturally) scores; so they become the reference for all the transpositions made.They were also ordered in three versions, each with 12 songs and their melodies and counterpoints.<\/p>\n<p>The first version (in the body of the book) is in C, for non-transposing instruments, with the melody in the treble clef and the counterpoint in the bass clef.<\/p>\n<p>The two other versions attached, in Bb and in Eb, are for the transposing instruments.<\/p>\n<p>In the scores in Eb and the counterpoint in C we made some adaptations in the octaves, or a few changes of notes related to the original melodies, due to the different ranges of the instruments to be used with this book.<\/p>\n<p>This work can be enjoyed by a wide range of musical instruments. Besides the flute, the mandolin, the violin, the piano, the accordion and the oboe (C instruments that read the treble clef), the cello, the piano, the bass, the tuba, the bassoon (in C in the bass clef), the tenor sax, the soprano sax, the clarinet, the bass clarinet, the trumpet (in Bb), the alto sax and the baritone sax (Eb) can also be used.<\/p>\n<p>Thus, the songs can be played with the following suggested duos: flute and tenor sax, soprano sax and tenor sax, violin and cello, trumpet and trombone, mandolin and guitar, clarinet and bass clarinet, oboe and bassoon, accordion and baritone sax; piano and bass; and there are several other possible combinations, as melody and counterpoint are available for all instruments. It should always be remembered that the original duo is the one that joins the flute (an octave higher) and the tenor sax, and they sound two octaves distant. Therefore, where possible, other formations must respect this relationship.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s also important to remark that, as it&#8217;s usual in the language of choro, the performers play each repetition differently, ornamenting and embellishing the melodic phrases. In his live performances, Pixinguinha always improvised new counterpoints, displaying all his genius.<\/p>\n<p>On the duo\u2019s recordings some counterpoints were consolidated. In this book&#8217;s selected songs the best versions of each part were chosen (A, B and C), sometimes merging phrases played on several repetitions.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p> <strong>Play-a-long CD<\/strong>The CD that comes with this book can be enjoyed simply through its audition or by practicing along. The first 12 songs can be heard as a normal audio CD. The remaining are the  rhythm section without the flute and the tenor sax.On tracks 1 to 12, the songs were recorded in full, with melodies and counterpoints performed by the authors David Ganc (flute) and M\u00e1rio S\u00e8ve (tenor sax), joined by Rog\u00e9rio Souza (guitar), M\u00e1rcio Almeida (cavaquinho and banjo) and Celsinho Silva (percussion).The melody (flute) and the counterpoint (tenor sax) were interpreted as follows: the first time each part was performed (A, B and C) the performances were faithful to the score. On the replays a freer form was used, as it usually happens in choro.<\/p>\n<p>Also note that if you place your sound system\u2019s pan to the right side, you\u2019ll hear the flute and the rhythm section without the sax, and you\u2019ll be able to practice the counterpoint. If you do the reverse, you\u2019ll hear the sax and the rhythm section without the flute, and you\u2019ll be able to practice the melody.<\/p>\n<p>On track 13  the note A (440 Hz) is recorded four times, for you to tune your instrument.<\/p>\n<p>On tracks 14 to 27, the same songs from tracks 1 to 12 appear only the rhythm section. So, you\u2019ll be able to practice individually or in a duo, performing the melody or the counterpoint. Note that before each song, you can hear the count of two bars and then three beats (when you have a pick up) or four beats (no pick up).<\/p>\n<p>Tracks 26 e 27, respectively, \u201cAguenta Seu Fulg\u00eancio\u201d and \u201cO Gato e o Can\u00e1rio\u201d \u2013 included as b\u00f4nus tracks \u2013 were recorded with slower tempo, for study purposes.<\/p>\n<p>The songs \u201cAndr\u00e9 de Sapato Novo\u201d (tracks 2 and 15) and \u201cAtraente\u201d (tracks 3 and 16), ossi bars, indicate the way fermatas, caesuras and rittardandos were executed.<\/p>\n<p>After playing the melodies and the counterpoints of the book, feel welcome to practice your improvisations and create your own melodic lines. For this, the harmony is written in all scores. In bars without chords the previous bar\u2019s chord must be repeated.<br \/>\nPlease note that the transpositions (C, Bb or Eb), the numbers of the corresponding CD tracks (the complete arrangements and the play-a-long) and the tempo (a quarter note =) can be seen in the the upper left corner of each sheet.<\/p>\n<p>Just like us, you&#8217;ll be amazed to discover Pixinguinha\u2019s and Benedito Lacerda\u2019s musical thinking, enjoy their music, their arrangements and all the possibilities of this book \/CD.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>David Ganc e M\u00e1rio S\u00e8ve<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.vitale.com.br\/sistema\/produtos\/produto.asp?codigo=36394\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.davidganc.com\/img\/botao_buy.png\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Coordena\u00e7\u00e3o de M\u00e1rio S\u00e8ve e David Ganc This book\/CD fills a historical gap: for the first time the counterpoints created by Pixinguinha&#8217;s sax tenor were transcribed and organized with the melody recorded by Benedito Lacerda&#8217;s flute.
