Summary of This Book

This collection brings together 14 Latin songs taken from the soundtrack of Wim Wenders' Oscar-nominated documentary, dedicated to Ry Cooder's journey to Havana and his encounter with legendary Cuban musicians. Designed for song sheet music enthusiasts, it offers piano-voice-guitar arrangements that capture the warm and danceable spirit of these tracks: singable melodies, harmonized accompaniments, and characteristic grooves (son, bolero, guajira, etc.).

Whether you are a pianist looking to accompany a singer, a guitarist seeking structured chords, or a vocalist wanting to build a credible "Latin" set, this book guides you toward a musical and expressive interpretation. The selected titles provide an excellent playground to work on pulse, articulation, and balance between singing and accompaniment, while expanding your knowledge of Cuban music culture.
