Here’s the truth: This book has been out of print for nearly two decades. Used physical copies (when you can find them) sell for astronomical prices on Estante Virtual or Mercado Livre—often R$500-1,000+ per volume.

Because of this, the search for a high-quality PDF scan has become a rite of passage for serious students of MPB.

For a pianist or guitarist, playing from the Songbook Milton Nascimento is a masterclass in MPB.

While they may not have the full book, these sites offer individual songs from the songbook for a few dollars each. If you only need Travessia and Canção do Sal, buying two PDFs legally is cheaper and faster than hunting for a corrupt file.
