Hey John, great sounding tone and musicality. Just a few things I would like to share and I hope you find useful or interesting.

In the B section, try playing the B minor chord in 2nd position and then going up to 7th to complete the melody. I find that it helps keep the melody intact by keeping it on the same string. I love this part and I think is how Heitor initially wrote it.

Then at the top of the C section, I like to play the 3 groups of 2 eighth notes as 2 groups of 3. I dont know if this is correct, but I find that it is easier to phrase because it sounds more authentic. It happens to come out sounding a bit more exotic that way.
