Curated Brazilian instruments used in rodas de choro and samba: 7-string guitars, cavaquinhos, bandolins, pandeiros and rabecas. Maybe some other fun stuff.

Choro repertoire is vast, but like any other genre there are best-known tunes. These choro and choro-related books can help you explore, learn your favorites and participate in virtually any roda.

We offer downloadable resources for both accompanists and soloists. For accompanists on guitar, cavaquinho and pandeiro: our Choro Accompaniment Series. For soloists: audio backing tracks.
