Brazil: Your Passport to a New World of Music
Bill Newman
Venture out of the ordinary and expand your musical horizons with guitar
styles from Brazil. This book introduces the musical elements that are
at the heart of the Brazilian sound. In addition to rhythms such as
tango, choro, samba, and bossa nova, a rich vocabulary of characteristic
chord sequences is covered, with techniques for integrating Brazilian
melodic and accompaniment styles.
The music notation, instantly familiar to experienced fingerstyle and
classical guitarists, includes chord diagrams above both standard music
notation and TAB to make learning trouble free for all players.
Featuring a number of distinctively Brazilian solo compositions, this
thorough yet concise introduction to the world of Brazilian guitar makes
it fun and easy to play the fascinating styles of one of the world's
richest musical traditions.
The CD demonstrates all the examples and compositions featured in the
book.

Why you can feel secure shopping with us
When you shop with us, our secure server encrypts all of your personal information, including name, address and credit card information. We use SagePay which are an industry leader in secure internet transactions. SagePay are used by thousands of other UK businesses for transaction security.
Industry leading transaction security
All transaction information passed between our website and the SagePay Payment System is encrypted using 128-bit SSL certificates. No cardholder information is ever passed unencrypted and all messages from SagePay are signed using MD5 hashing to prevent tampering. You can be completely secure in the knowledge that nothing passed to SagePay can be examined, used or modified by any third parties attempting to gain access to sensitive information.
Internationally recognised encryption and data storage
Once on the SagePay system, all sensitive data is secured using the same internationally recognised 256-bit encryption standards used by, among others, the US Government. The encryption keys are held on state-of-the-art, tamper proof systems in the same family as those used to secure VeriSign's Global Root certificate, making them all but impossible to extract. The data they hold is extremely secure and they are regularly audited by the banks and banking authorities to ensure it remains so.
Private network links to banks
SagePay has multiple private links into the banking network that are completely separate from the Internet and which do not cross any publicly accessible networks. Any cardholder information sent to the banks and any authorisation message coming back is secure and cannot be tampered with.
Employee access
No individuals within our company or SagePay are able to decrypt transaction information or cardholder data. Their systems only allow access to our most senior staff and only in extenuating circumstances (such as investigations of Card Fraud by the Police). Your card information is secure even from their own employees because the systems never display the full card numbers, even on administration screens.
