My home recording of the tranquil little piece 'Chuva' by the Guitarist and Composer, Sergio Assad.

A note from the composer, Sergio Assad; 'The Seis Brevidades were written partially in Chicago and partially in Paris during 2008 and dedicated to my dear brother Odair Assad. They were not conceived with related musical material, each being very different in character and based in different sources of latin american music.

The whole set is unified as they reflect very loose and brief moments of a journey through a single day. The first one called “Chuva” was the first impression of a rainy morning in the Chicago Loop. The title “brevidades” have a double connotation by implying the word brief, for the duration of each piece, but also by being the name of a Brazilian cupcake suggesting that these pieces should be taken as sweet little “cakes”.
