Tentacao (Temptation)..Jose Gomes aka Zequina de Abreu

[Steve Harrison]

Continuing the theme of music written for or arranged for banjo, this is the 7th.tune by Abreu that I've arranged. With the possible exception of Tico Tico, it's possible that it's the first time banjo arrangements have been written for those tunes. This is another Brazilian Tango in which I've combined the piano RH and LH using second voice to achieve the tango effect. It was originally written with lyrics. The piano score was written in Gmin but Emin works better for the banjo. I've simplified it and lowered much of it by one octave. It's very pleasing to play and is not too challenging...Steve.

Another lovely tango from Abreu. And a nice, accessible arrangement for the banjo. Thanks Steve.
