Robossa - iReal Pro Chords

Robossa (you gotta roll the "R" when you say it, just because I say you do!) is a bossa nova tune I wrote with my name in it! Every composer is allowed at least one of these, so this one is mine!

Here are links to a Robossa iReal Pro PDF and Robossa iReal Pro Format file (HTML) so you can play along and shed the chords yourself!

The sheet music for Robossa is not formally "published" but will be at some point. I found it fruitful to have the chords in iReal Pro so I could shed and work out the melody. I think I came up with the chords and form first, but had some fragmented ideas as to how the melody should go.

The tune lays nicely on Flugelhorn for me and I enjoy playing it - hope you do too! :)
