Songbook Series: Bossa Nova - Volume 1: Chega de saudade

Bossa Nova has neither time nor age. It is already perpetuated by the perfect combination of chords, harmonies and rhythms, completed by its clear and optimistic poetic form, in addition to the romanticism of the subjects it addresses. Beauty and innocence in its purest form. More than a simple music genre, Bossa Nova is a way to feel and experience music vividly, with all your senses.

With this in mind, the Songbook Series: Bossa Nova collection gathers the finest selection of masterpieces of all time for you to play. Whether you are a beginner, intermediate or expert, you will always find something suitable for you. As never seen before, diverse instruments and multiple musical notations (harmony, standard, tablature, slash) get together to offer you the ultimate learning experience.

The first volume of the collection features Chega de saudade, composed by Vinícius de Moraes and Antônio Carlos Jobim in 1956, and recorded for the first time by Elizeth Cardoso in 1958. This song has become one of the symbols of Bossa Nova, and its recording by João Gilberto in 1959 is considered the starting point of this musical movement.
