Worth checking out Babik's "Sinti Houn Brazil" 73 album for starters: There's a long affinity between Manouche and Brazilian music (at least as far as Manouche musicians doing nice arrangements of the Bossa standards).
His chords/feel is more ethereal than a lot of the other Manouche guitar maestros. Babik could be called the Pat Metheny of Manouche/Sinti Jazz. One of the very best compositions in this genre (to be ranked alongside the much better known "Bossa Dorado" by Dorado Schmitt). This is a phenominal Gypsy Bossa Nova by Django Reinhardt's second son, Babik. "Cheyenne" Babik Reinhardt (Manouche Bossa Nova) Only ever recorded once in 2001 by Quarteto Maogani (Brazil's premier Guitar Quartet, who do stunning arrangements in their own right) - see: Surpisingly no formal sheets were ever prepared for it. To work out the chords for this took a lot of skill. A young Brazilian pianist, Felipe Montanaro, transcribed it and he did an excellent job. Hermeto is actually the unrivalled master of this type of ethereal Choro composition, but Itiberê, Nenê and Guinga (as the most obvious examples) have also written great things in this style as well. It follows in what might be called the Hermeto tradition (but that's not to imply it's derivative in any way it's uniquely Itiberê's).
Not a "Jazz" composition, but harmonically it should appeal to Jazz musicians. It's a wistful, ethereal Choro-Lento with sublime harmonies. Personally my favourite composition of his. This post contains the following attachment types:Īn exceptional composition by Hermeto's bassist Itiberê Zwarg (written originally for Itiberê's ex-wife). Ps check for a transcription of Hermeto gurgling into a glass of water on another recording of Bebe.Btw its easy to find the official sheet for Bebe, but the organ solo I refer to has never been transcribed The organ solo I refer to is definately worthy of a good transcriber's skills.here's hoping.many thanks Heraldo's guitar solo (immediately before Hermeto's organ solo) has been transcribed and can be found if you google "Heraldo Do Monte e Improvisação No Baião RochaIgorBrasil_M. In particular it would be marvelous if someone could have a go transcribing Hermeto’s phenominal organ solo on "Bebe" (his best known comp - a fantastic baiao) as recorded on Heraldo do Monte's self-titled 80 lp: Hermeto's written over 9000 compositions and there's loads of his stuff that needs transcribing. Willian Cunha (Violão) & Sérginho Pinheiro (Keyboard) 2020 - great treatment, originality-wise Īnselmo Netto & Jonathan Preiss - 06 (nice original treatment) Miles Davis called him "one of the world's most impressive musicians", and Miles recorded two of his comps on the 70 Live Evil lp (Nem Um Talvez and Igrejinha/Little Church). "Menina Ilza" (Hermeto) This ballad should appeal to some jazz guys.
