Seek Brazillian Music on Piano Rolls
By Bill Jelen

I've been meaning to ask this for a while, and when Jeffrey Borinsky
mentioned Robbie's excellent arrangement of "Brasillian Maple Leaf"
yesterday, it came to mind again.

My wife and I adopted three kids from Brazil during 1996.  Going from
no kids to 3 instantly required an adjustment, and this is why I
subsequently decided to discontinue doing business as Bam-Bam Piano
Rolls at the end of 1996.

I have now taken an interest in all things Brazilian, and wondered if
anyone out there has any Brazilian rolls.  I would be interested in
hearing about any rolls with Portuguese words, songs that reference
Brazil, or any "samba" type rolls.  Depending on what is out there,
I would like to build a collection of 6-10 rolls.  So, if anyone has
a stack of "samba" rolls in their closet (next to the pile of Hawaiian
rolls), I might be interested in buying them.
