| " As a fan of bossa-novas from Antonio Carlos Jobim (with complex and moving harmonies), I have created my samba jazz in order to motivate students to work on typical rhythms of this musical style " - Alain LOPEZ | |||||||||

| " What else can be better than a Samba to tackle the Syncopation with fun! In the second part, the player will have to articulate the syncopation to become a credible Samba player! one could also add the sounds of a "reco-reco" or a "pandeiro" (small Brasilian drums) to make this Samba even more captivating!

| " The wind carries away the yellow leaves fallen on the pavement, the cafes put tables and chairs in... I evoke here a fall tour that is difficult to do quietly in Paris. How to take your time in this city with so many streets to cross (musical phrases of 3 measures), cars or buses to avoid (musical phrases starts on the second time). While the chestnut vendors are on subway entrances, how not to hurry like others (theme B) to 'catch' the subway... " - Alain LOPEZ | |||||||||

| " A rythmic composition in which the cells "quaver / two semiquaver" and " two semiquaver / quaver " are like a leitmotiv until the end of the Piece. The numerous triplets are a wink of "Rhapsody in Blues" from George Gershwin. My goal was to facilitate the listening, the exchange and the mimicry betwenn the two associated players: no tandem ("Temps d'M") without that! " - Alain LOPEZ | |||||||||

| " Cuban music with a A-B-A' structure. Every sentence begins with 3 half notes followed by reversed intervals (eighth notes) and ends with a rhythmic tie. It is possible to learn this piece by heart to be closer to the oral tradition. The sentences are not difficult to learn and MP3 support will be a significant support for this.

| " The title of this Piece is a pun on Cubans rhythms. The opposition between the tone and used homonymous tone, as well as the rhythmic formula chosen on theme "B" are a typical feature of South America music. Concerning the melody, it is a stylistics composition on quarter note triplets! " - Alain LOPEZ | |||||||||
