Black Orpheus - Carnival - Bossa Nova - Guitar

[Sivozm]

my type of music bro thanks for the pleasure of enjoying that

[roygift]

@jerydoom try this /watch?v=MFo2aJHBbgU

[tgy07]

you play too violent,try to play more fluid and it will be perfect !

[andrewc41]

Nice playing :)

[Spookimitsu]

I think it's charming just the way it is. Thats effing good for playing by ear.

[QGfk1]

I noticed that he brightened it up by replacing  a few diminished and half diminished chords with standard dominant chords (most notably in the main progression at the beginning, with a regular D7 instead of a fully diminished B). Very nice chord melody.

[jerydoom]

yo dude, could u do a vid on how to do this?

[SwissNickita]

Muito lindo!!!!!

[jacquillo]

good stuff

cheers

[ualflygal]

YOU can play, my man!!! GORGEOUS!

[michaelamiles]

Very good my friend :)

[newislandguitar]

Awsome job! played with feeling and artistry! Love this interpretation.

[musicianscotland]

It seems to be based around a similar chord structure to Blue Bossa. Very nice!

[H0E0M0G14]

@musicianscotland Yep almost, here are just more minor 7, but otherwise yes :)

[v1kk3485]

very cool!

[wenjus]

nice one but need little bit more practice but well done this piece seem to be fucking rough to play great job!!!

[luuurock]

it sounds realy nicee!! congratulations

do yo have the music sheet of this?? if you have it, could you send it to me?

Thanks!

[Videogenius7]

I like it, I don't know what those other bossa nova elitists are talking about, they are just close minded, I guess.

[opjazz]

Im sorry, but that is an ugly way to play bossa nova! Listen to some of the bossa masters and get the feeling right. Check out Romero Lubambos video!

[mittellos]

mh, that guitar is suffering in your hands. too much temperamente :)

[anoreo]

You should become more in tune with your guitars capabilities. Clearly volume is not one of them. After a certain point, the harder you pluck, the worse the tone you get and the volume doesn't significantly increase either. Play gently and amplify maybe? Does that have electronics? If not, mic it or put the camera closer.

[jerydoom]

really good

[AloneInTheDeep]

Very good!

[perro1949]

not bad but you need baaaadly a better guitar

[TheBobnalyd]

Super. Full sound  nice inversions.

[carolngeo]

Thank you for posting this. Your playing is beautiful and brings tears to my eyes.

[danretes]

niceee men the best of youtube

[jonnywood09]

Very nice

[deebonn]

Great. Check on 1.07 might need a bit polishing.

[kndiregar]

no tabs?! hehe nice job man... you gotta sympathize... some of us REALLY want to play this version

[cristianperez23]

Nice!! 5/5

[storen4]

tudatlan vagy... time od  nincs.. teknikád nincs téped a hurokat.. kár volt fel raknod magad

[eesul007]

excellent.

[Marcus538]

cool tune cool arrangement

[aron90lon]

super!!!!!!!!

[jrutid]

Hey do take the tone advice on board...play a bit more gently and maybe just a tad faster.

I really like your arrangement ideas here. This is really good work that could be excellent with a couple tweaks (I'm going to work hard to learn your arrangement.)

[MuchoPolvo]

and the rythm and accent are also very good, ur kitchen looks like a living room

[MuchoPolvo]

its true the sound is too sharp as to play bossa but ur chord melody is excellent

[Hawaiianon]

It's a guitar .. not a bow and arrow! :)

[AlvaroMCA]

gawd i used to hate jazz, but i love bossanovas, do u know where can i get the sheets?

[ozyrinis]

nice arrangement but you should go for a mellow sound, i think you play way too harsh, this song is s'posed to be a tender and melacholy one

[khrystaaal]

agreed!

[kevindude01]

@ozyrinis i agree. put them to sleep gently..thats it..shh shh shh.

[fetacheese900]

Nice job playing the melody as well as the chords-- I think it's normally Saxs or something...... Imay be mistaken.

[freddyfvckface]

ArtArc has a good point. there's nothing wrong with constructive criticism. he IS snapping the strings too hard ... is it better to not point that out and hinder his improvement?

[supersaiya07070]

probrably cuz he wasnt sure of how loud it was suppost 2 be -.-..cameras differ

[guitarguitarguitar2]

I reckon he is snapping the strings that hard to accent the melody but your right in a way he doesn't have to do it that hard

[edgarallenhoe]

Wow. ArtArc is one picky little hater, isn't he? Good job. Did you adapt this from a chart? Nice playing.

[sbmfighter]

wow... that was gr8

[jamesbo2031]

that was bad ass

[AllThatRemains15]

Amazing!

[Wise2you]

Hey, that was great! Thanks

[sydswirl]

dont listen to the dumb ass haters man you are freaking awesome. Keep it going. amazing

[ArtArc]

very nice played, though you're grabbing the strings a bit much which makes a very distorted sound. And you stop at the same place twice in the song between 2 chords, but I think you noticed so too.

But all in all it was good I think

[Joeman3438]

very nice very verry nice

[OtherWorld]

oh yeah and this was amazing by the way.

[OtherWorld]

Thisis buy bonfa, I searched for Jobim and this came up.

[OtherWorld]

Oh cause Jobim made most of the music for the movie.

[Kyrindon]

At first I didn't like the twang, but the more I listened to it, the more it caught on. Very nice playing!

Man, I wish you lived nearby, because I love this style... Lucky dawg~ ^ ^

Make more videos!

[roygift]

Cheers !

[n1gchris]

if i knew how to play like this i could pick up so many gurls nic3 playing

[illplayguitar4u]

yours is definately the best version i feel.. its got more jazz to it and i dig it. if you could, lemme know where you learned it from? i would ask for tabs and chords but i know that s troublesome. so if you could just message me and lemme know where it is you studied it from id be much appreciative and very greatful

_bless

[illplayguitar4u]

NICE ROY!! sounds marvelous especiialy with the natural acoustics of where ever it is your playing sounds like maybe a kitchen? ahhaah, way to jazz it out with some bossa nova!

[roygift]

thank you

[jitsu250582]

Peguei já manda outra rsrsrs

[mrolipo]

Do you got the Tabs?

[RonMz]

nice !!!

[mrwongg]

hi Roygift. you clearly have the ability to play this song w/o mistakes so can i (humbly) suggest something? try to pull gently on the strings to get a soft round buttery sound, i think itll make the song sound nice and smooth. anyway, youre a good player, im just trying to get more girls to throw themselves at you when you play, hahaha.

[tyroniusmax]

yeah dont snap the strings, otherwise pretty good.

[roygift]

thanks ;)

[myoeman]

i actually sorta like the abrupt sound. guess its sorta a preference.

[jifarretrain]

hes not a lefty

[PerhapsToast2]

so where is this arrangement found?

[Qanone1]

lefty's rule!!!

[PerhapsToast2]

it's a normal guitar

[LPcarmen]

Well it isn't easy to play the accords and the melody in the same time,so much patience must have been needed till you could join them together but I think if you had practised it more before you recorded and loaded it up you would have played well in this video.Anyhow it is quite a good show.

[Rentaghost76]

If you were to treat your wife or girlfriend the way you treat that guitar, it would be called domestic violence. Get a better right hand technique and develop some feeling and subtlety.

[Stonedog1991]

thats one nice guitar man great tone

[SmashedPumpkin08]

hey thats cool (:

[ShayCsper]

how can i get this tab?

[jox77]

the guitar is a second girlfriend,dont hurt her, treat her gentle, are you fighting with her?

[webhackes]

man you are so great!!! pls send me the tabs xD

[glorysword]

I loved it. The way you play made me turn a blind eye to some of your minor technical flaws.

All the best.

[roygift]

Thank you mate

[topoyiyoraton]

i would like it better if you would play more gently, you´re pulling the strings way too hard.

[mariavinhal]

It sounds great!!

[IHaveAMask]

Very Nice.

[cristoinhumano]

tabs please some tabs i would really like to learn how to play this type of music.

[IHaveAMask]

You can find it on the video response. Thats where he got the tabs.

[Insigma83]

Good work fella. I like it, maybe try uping the tempo a little, it might help. And I agree the slapping does kind of affect the song. But you are definitely a talented player and im sure you've got room to improve even more. Keep jamming!

[roygift]

Cheers

[kwhite20032000]

Overall pretty good. Try not to snap the strings and let it flow a little smoother to get the boss nova style.

[attractivefrenchguy]

nice... but your playing should be more smooth... is too choppy... make it more smooth through the chord transitions....

[uberbenaus]

nicely done. bossa nova is such a great style. wish i could play it this well..

[wraaaah]

is it possible to get the tablature of this?

[sotonemuel]

I prefer the more mellow version of it due to the original lyrics of this song. It is meant to be played in a sentimental way. But I like your chord voicings and your knowledge of the fretboard.

[roygift]

Thank you!

[MasMuzica]

ok this is bossa nova :D

[ud0ntkn0w]

this was very good, I've been trying to learn this song, it doesn't feel too hard, but some of the chords are hard to transition to that fast

overall though good job, some of those plucks sounded kind of bad because they snapped onto the fretboard, but it was good

[roygift]

thank you

[DXS41CTDANSLAM]

Great chords great playing. I love the ending chord. I also like the percusive string snap you worked in.

[dronai]

Nice one, have to find this tab somewhere. Reminds me of my mother.

[nirsoffer]

wow that's great im gonna learn it!

[quartafeira45]

Good chords and modulations in between. Good technique. You pull the strings too much away from the top of the guitar and they slap too much on the frets. The sound is therefore not ok. The guitar is like a lady, she likes to be caressed, especially when she wears nylon strings on a date with a brasilian tune.

[roygift]

Good point, cheers quartafeira.

[svanteljunggren]

Nice man, wish I could play that good!

[kakkyhargreaves]

perhaps a little more legato here and there

[roygift]

Yes I know, it was because I thought the sound was too silent. Cheers!

[behiet]

bloady hell, your sick!! great job

[gearboxhpc]

very nice playing. my guitar instructor is teaching me this piece

[jayjaybagiu]

you're great man! that is a nice song. teach me :}

[MatthewCepican]

Very good :) -Matthew Cepican A&R Vesuvius Records

[roygift]

thx

[luisalberto28]

creo ke el bossa nova es algo de lo mas lindo que puede existir

[lorenzino1]

Nice playing for this song!I prefer this song,with an American Jazz touch, than "Blue Bossa"!You can tell me there's many ways of playing "Blue Bossa", I know, but this one &quot seems to be a Bossa with Jazz melody &quot, when you play it instrumental,even if the Melody is Brazilian!But COOL version!

[roygift]

thx

[NattMoore]

This is an awesome recording, beautiful playing.

[b87t]

Hi!

I think you play it very well, but the picking is a bit agressive... I can't find a score to this.

[HighwayCinema]

Gracias! Suuuuuuuave!

[roygift]

cheers!

[kancerbero91]

nice but try to improve your technique that's all keep doing a great job !!!

[Necko91]

Good music, Have you got a tablature ?

[roygift]

hi, thanks, read comments below to find tabulatures

[Jamhet22]

You certainly have the notes down, but bossa nova is about being free and relaxed, and that's simply not conveyed. It's good stuff, but it could really be better.

[madwaro]

I liked this video, I love that song. I know the chords but I never tried to play armony and melody at the same time. You inspired me to try that... thanks.

[neopandorex]

r u left handed? really cool vid! But as its already been said... i'd see this track as a less agressive track... and if ud let plunge ur fingers back into the strings between every bass note pluck... it would add that kinda groovy bossa feeling (im really worse then u are but im working on that) really incredible phrasing though!!!

[roygift]

Thanks, you are right. I was too aggressive because my guitar seemed to be too silent and too soft.

[franchizzlec]

I like i Like :)

[roygift]

thanks

[natanomusic]

hey ! nice sound.. do you have any tabs for that one?

would be so great!! thanks...

greets -n-

[roygift]

I found this arrangement here on youtube. Try and find user called LickByNeckDotCom.

[LickByNeckDotCom]

well done roygift!! I am glad that you like the arrangement! Keep playing!

[pimbolie1]

let your hand slip freely on the guitar, you play well but still, you are very agressive with the chords.

[pagoda11]

Great playing, but you should go easy on the strings with your right hand-just my opinion.

[illdoitagain]

this is one of my favorite tunes, great job on this one, the phrasing is awesome!

[roygift]

Thank you

[troubleclef]

nice job. i like the arrangement. cool.

[roygift]

Thank you

[mattis09]

your playing is very well....

the accords you play are correctly.

I love this kind of music.

Thank you for your comend to my video of this sound too ;-)
