How to play Paulinho Da Viola “Sarou Para Ramadés” on the guitar

Stunningly beautiful Brazilian tune, a must learn for every guitar player

I am a huge fan of Brazilian music. Intoxicating melodies, otherworldly harmonies, addictive rhythms. “Sarou Para Ramadés” is one of the most gorgeous Brazilian instrumentals I’ve ever heard. Naturally, I had to sit down and figure out how to play it. I did it by ear (couldn’t find any published scores of this song). It is quite possible that I may have heard/interpreted some notes and phrases incorrectly.

Let me know how you like it. Also, let me know if you’d like me to show you how to play this rather convoluted, knuckle busting melody.
