Styles originated in the Northeast of Brazil: Baião, Toada, Rasta Pé, Xote, Afoxé & Maracatu, Frevo, Marcha and Marcha Rancho The three main sections of the book cover: Different Styles; General Characteristics; Harmony; Rhythm; Phrasing; Melodic and Stylistic Considerations; Patterns and Hints. The explanations are accompanied by hundreds of written and recorded examples. Each presented style is concluded by a complete composition. Also included are an extensive discography and biography, a glossary as well as numerous photos of Brazilian artists. Antonio Adolfo grew up in a musical family in Rio de Janeiro.
