Brazilian composer Walter Burle Marx may have written his five-movement suite for solo guitar, Violeiros de Guaratiba, in direct response to the Suite Populaire Bresilienne of Villa Lobos. Like that better-known work this one was written for Segovia, was modeled on popular styles, and is both accessible and playable. This first movement is a short, upbeat samba with an attractive, catchy tune. The score to this work is included in the Complete Guitar Works of Burle Marx, published by Clear Note Publications, and can be found here:
