Dear music lovers, We know how difficult is to access scores of great works and also the historic and rich collection of classical and popular Brazilian music. Some amazing Brazilian composers are still unknown and that is why their works are not performed and applauded. From Villa Lobos to Pixinguinha and Tom Jobim, other great composers will be revealed to you and will surprise you with the genius of their works. Instituto Música Brasilis is a non-profit organization, founded in 2009, whose goal is to research and make these works available, giving access to them to professionals, students and music lovers in Brazil and abroad. We created a collection of sheet music for free download, which currently has almost two thousand compositions in PDF format. We hope you enjoy and perform them in your next performances. Greetings to all, Rosana Lanzelotte, President.
