    For anyone watching this video: If you want to learn this style, make sure to listen to as much Joao Gilberto as you can, even though he was not really a jazz musician. In fact, you should do it even if you don't want to learn this style, because Joao played (and sang!) so beautifully. Have a listen to his eponymous solo album from 1973, which is mostly just vocals, guitar and light percussion. His version of "Aguas de Marco" is magical, mesmerizing and mindblowing. In a jazz context, his album with Stan Getz is of course required listening.

      Intervals. With standard tunning Fret 3 String 5 is a C. From this, Major scale: 3-5 ( Tonic, First interval), 5-5 ( Second interval, D-not used yet). Next string: Fret2, String4: E (third interval), and because of this is a Major chord... go on: fret2 string 3: A-> there we have the 6. In the same string fret 5 we have the C again, the octave of the tonic , not played, and the last, string 2, fret 3, D, would be the second, but after the octave is counted like the nineth . Seems complicated but after you draw it and you play it is easier. I'm just a fan, hope to help and you to enjoy

    Thank you so much, Jens. This tutorial is amazing!
    I'm not a guitarist. I am a composer where the only instrument that I have mastered, is my voice. Now I am using my DAW to arrange chords and compose melody via the midi piano roll. I'm trying to develop a small library of Bossa Nova rhythm guitar comping patterns, so that i can drop chords into the piano roll and edit them using a simple pattern.
    My goal is to produce a simple demo that I can use to score the leadsheet and give both the leadsheet and demo mp3 to the instrumental musicians so they can use it to rehearse before we record them in our studio.
    The 2 simplest patterns that you show in this video are an excellent start for the simple template that I want to build. As you can imagine, my previous demos sounded very very simple, with only a strum-strum-strum feel. By using your patterns, these demos will sound quite a bit more realistic. I feel much better about handing demos like this to our musicians to rehearse with.
    Thank you SO MUCH for your amazing videos :)

    Hi Jens, awesome video! I just want to mention that in that video of Nelson Faria and Joao Bosco they are playing a rhythm called "Partido Alto", which is a type of Samba. It's a quite different approach to Brazilian Music. This type of rhythm comes usually from a percussive instrument (we try to emulate the rhythm in the acoustic guitar playing), this one in specific comes from a brazilian instrument called "Pandeiro", or tambourine in english!
    Keep up with the great video and lessons!
    Cheers from Brazil.

    Hi Jen,
    When you speak you speak lot of wisdom, if some one is paying close attention to render down your video to application in for everyday guitarist it will take few weeks with good practice.
    But no complaints keep it up. Every word you speak is for guitarist from a guitarist who has been there.❤

    Good video Lars, I had been stuck on the guitar for years and now I've been watching your videos for a week and practicing I've made progress like never before. I still have a long way to go and it motivates me that people like you upload these free videos for the love of art and Jazz.

    Thank you for this lesson Jens! I found myself improvising chord progressions after listening to the first three quarters. Had to pick the guitar up and play! Going back to listen to the final part to work on learning the 3 layer idea. Ty again!

    Looking at the percussion instrument used in bossa nova & samba orchestras can give a better understanding of the various layers of rhythm. The "Surdo" (bass drum) is an integral part of these rhythms & feel of the style.

    • @JensLarsen
      @JensLarsen  4 года назад +2

      That is very true. I also find that I learned the most from listening to the style :)
