Bossa Nova Rhythm Part 1

[xilefx]

learned it in one day. very good lesson!

[Gauraonline]

Where is Bossa Nova Rhythm Part 2 ???

[Gauraonline]

Great chord progression. Thank you very much. Is there a melody that goes with this ? Is this taken from any particular song ?

[devtty7]

Thanks for a great lesson. You are really a good teacher!

[JaysTheMan94]

OH MY GOD....YOU MEAN TO TELL ME IT WAS A WOMAN THROUGH THE WHOLE VIDEO? WITH MAN HANDS?

[mrstreetlightman]

Bossa Nova focuses on synchopation not beat one. Just saying.

[majstor1606]

@mrstreetlightman - It is not synchopated if you listen and you hear that bass line is always on 1st and 3rd, only the struming(higher strings) here are very simple -twice with first bass note(1st) and once (synchopated) after second bass note(3rd), it's actually simpliest practice to get into bossa

[TheGoulu]

blablabla... the song is nice but man you are talking too much..

[TheTomasito1971]

Finally, i was trying to imagine how is played the G13 on guitar, i was trying to pass all those chords to a friend, but i only know them on the piano, thank you so much for this video, is gonna be very helpful. God bless.

[neocromater]

bossa is for pros. cant play those cords lol!!!

[ProgPower32]

@neocromater Pros? Nah. It aint shit. But it sounds amazing when you play electric lead to it. Look up Kiko Loureiro.

[LOLOKAYDUDE]

You got some sweaty hands bro

[jamesoshea]

This lesson was fantastic, thanks so much.

[ghmiguel]

I would love to learn to master the guitar, bossa nova is very nice, shame we do not have the capacity.

[arrowsplit]

He starts playing at 14:46!

you gotta memorize all his teachings until then

lol

[alexbericheath]

You have tiny hands!

[Hondengans]

Great lesson, many thanks for this video!

[budarys123]

[dwkarl55]

I was simply looking for an explanation of the bossa rhythm and came across your video, so I learned a sweet progression in the bargain. Very nice work. Very clear. How can anyone dislike this?? I don't understand people.

[leomonteirorj]

Hi everyone

As a Brazilian I thing I can give you an inside opinion about it.

The original sound for bossa nova you can get using nylon on a classic guitar.

Cheers

[froglikestoeatsalad]

covered both part 1 and 2..thanks for the video

[DarkDruid7]

I'm trying to learn this progression, but it takes me like five seconds to move to the next chord. I'm new to playing jazz rhythms on guitar, please help.

[thomasbradleyh]

@DarkDruid7 Just keep practicing. Depending on how quickly you learn, you'll pick it up between a few days to a few weeks.

[heeh2]

i love bossa nova so much...my heart drops when he plays the 2, 5, 1

[budarys123]

moc mluvyš malo hraješ

[xFishNinjax]

thanks for posting this man, great video.

[ktommycary]

Thank you so much for this lesson. You taught to my level perfectly, I'm not a beginner but I'm unfamiliar with this idiom, at least as a guitar player (I've played jazz bass for years). You really make me feel that I can do this, with some practice. I look forward to further lessons. Again, thanks for your generosity in sharing.

[abrahamguitar]

You shouldn't "have to" learn all styles. Hey instructor, just teach and don't dictate.

[a2l5a5n2]

I love the style of Carlos Lyra! is very sophisticated and very syncopated I love it !

[TwoBucksShy]

That was pretty cool how you talked for 11 minutes b4 getting to the bossa nova stuff.

[Cathydoescovers]

@TwoBucksShy uhh he was teaching the essential info before he got to the 'bossa nova stuff'.

[Qber4life]

This is a fantastic video. It went at the perfect pace that I needed, thanks!

[gilbertosandoval93]

i was playing along with my guitar and when u got to the rythm around 12ish i kept getting more excited cause it sounds soooo raw!!!

[mertimos]

@wowproducoes

many thanx



[truthslap]

very cool lesson, bossa nova is fantastic, thanks for the upload!

[mertimos]

SOS

idideosongs,

what kind or what maker of nylonstring guitar do you recommend for playing bossa nova or samba brazilian styles so that we can have an original sound?

some say it should be accoustic with nylon strings. is that true?

thanks

EA

[wowproducoes]

@mertimos that is what ur suppose to use, i am from brazil and the oldschool bossa nova musicians use nylon strings,some people don't use them, even though the nylon ones sound waaaaay better

[iVideosongs]

@mertimos I actually just got back from a trip to Rio, Recife and Sao Paolo. The music stores have every style you can imagine, and on TV and on sidewalks or beach-side at night, a mishmash of acoustics. But in terms of traditional, my impression is nylon on a 'classic' type acoustic guitar. Any one else have an opinion/observation?

[filip1218]

@iVideosongs Definitely classical guitars are the best. I'm a drummer but I play guitar in a jazz/bossa nova band and I, myself use a classical guitar to play and the sound is great. As to what kind of classical? Custom is probably your best bet but it'll probably cost you a couple of thousand dollars. But classical guitars are the best to play bossa nova.

[stellarrubio]

@mertimos I use a nylon string Alhambra (Spanish classical...-What is great is they do a senorita Ladies size (what I'm playing on video-The Lilo Song...great for the ladies and those with small hands!

[skibum1981]

@mertimos Nope. Classical.

[johnnyjeans2]

@mertimos i've been playin' jazz music on my nylon guitar...and i have a Lucinda guitar....sounds so nice

with D'Aquisto Strings

[LASZchViSHUS]

@mertimos

yeah bro. I just play this handmade spanish one, any guitar; nylon strings, classical style. Classical guitars also have smaller bodies that are shaped differently which affects the sound significantly in addition of course to the type of material your strings are made of. I just like my classical guitar altogether better than the steel strings I own anyway, especially for jazz.

[LASZchViSHUS]

@mertimos but I mean basically start with somethin' cheap and work your way up, I mean not too cheap, but I know even taylor makes classical guitars for under three hundred dollars as well as takamine, although the wood is often a bit green with those and takes time to age...

[LASZchViSHUS]

I would recommend though, yamaha, taylor, or takamine to start I was just lucky to get the one I have as a sort of good faith like thing from my father, also you could always just go to spain or mexico, or brazil where a classical will without a doubt be cheaper, and handmade.

[guyisku58]

Oh My Gosh you im very blessed that you posted these videos !

[volk410]

Good video. Makes me wish I hadn't given away my guitar. I've got to get another one.

[alexchildren]

NICE TUTORIAL :D

[bgrich2003]

For once youtube recommended me something useful. Great lesson

[brickerville]

Thanks man.

[trilobite3339]

this was one of the best guitar lessons ive ever had, and i didnt have to drive 5 miles away and pay 30$ for an hour lesson. the internet is great for learning music. haha i bet a lot of guitar teachers are losing money cuz of this

[MrPablopantoja]

Thank you, the video helped me a lot.

[o0kyuji0o]

fantastic.

[uptownjogger]

Thanks for the tutorial!

Does anyone here know much about bossa nova chord progressions? I know here we had the ii V I, but how was he able to have an Eflat major key and playing chords with that, but then he was playing a dminor (which does not even belong in the Eflat key). Mr. Ivideosongs, you may have to post something on Bossa nova music theory. Whatever it is, it sounds great!

[ChavezRey]

I like the talking, there is something to be said for the monkey see method which I used for years, now I like to know what's happening, either way this is a good learning tool, thanks! The beauty of the explanation being that instead of just learning this song I can apply what he is saying to other songs with similar progressions.

[Oh1TheGrandeur1]

wow great video and explanation. I was able to learn this rhythm and all the new chords easily because it was explained so carefully and thoughtfully. Thanks for the great video. :)

[2369Davi]

parabéns continue assim...

[soullessSiIence]

I think it wasn't necessary to explain things like we were completely retarded.

[KillerBeBop94]

God your voice is so relaxing

[soinet]

Man!... is excellent!.. but you can do it more slowly? please! T.T

[tubesoxabc]

Oh yeah! ck out this L.A. band who does a Bossa nova style version of the police'

search manteca in a bottle

[moosey62]

Dear Rob

This was great. Thanks for a fun Sunday with my old nylon. Too long since I picked it up.

;-)

[rjcurphy]

It is hard to find a teacher that can cram as much into one 2 part lesson.

Keep em coming.

[rjcurphy]

Wonderful Wonderful lessons.

Very good clear concise TEACHING.

Nothing worse than a good lesson with a teacher that stumbles in their lesson.

A+

[izabellenx0]

made in brazil =)

[ZekSzczerba]

bossa nova chords are endless! and I like that

[PDOpsps]

obs.: that bass change that he uses is most comom in samba not bossa nova.

[violiner9391]

omg is this guy related to robert schumann????

[daddydojang]

Thank you for sharing your teaching. Great!

[Solitude102]

Very helpful video, I can now play this progression smoothly thanks to the video.

[ElGbayRGX]

Very nice lesson thanks a lot !!!! = )

[jocabasss]

brasiliam music the best.,.,..,.,.very very good;.;.;.

[Lenoresmoke]

awesome!!! great stuff!

[Ceballos23]

You are truly a great teacher just as you are, although everybody has a different preference in their way to learn and absorb information. Don't mind some of the comments~ Big thanks!

[Morganizer]

Fantastic instruction. I appreciate it a lot.

The designation of the frets on your chord chart is a little confusing. On the Bb13, for example, it says 6th fret beside what is actually the 5th fret. I figured out what it means is that the finger is stopping the string at the 6th fret, which is the below (above pitch-wise) the one with "6th" beside it. It's consistent throughout anyway, just a little different from most notation. Hope that helps anyone struggling.

[InspiredByBeer]

Awesome video...I would go and grab my guitar right now if not my fingers hurting too much :/

I also noticed,in all the teaching videos most of the teachers have disturbingly long nails...or is it disturbing only me?

[MarokiSDA3]

plz i love the sound of this guitar ...could anyone tell me what is it ?

[daveknow]

Good stuff. Well presented (I don't agree with criticism of others).

How about some more changes and rhythms to play with?

[roquegiler]

Great!! thank you very much!!!!! 

[gtrrobster]

ps.s

i am amazed how how much comment this video has rcvd.

the dude and company freely u/l a 16 min very complete lesson,

and just as many people complain as compliment.

Sort makes the experts not want to bother with helping people.

[JammerVideo]

What is a 2-5-1?

[iVideosongs]

@JammerVideo It refers to a chord progression method, where we assign numbers against a list of tones. If you Google "2-5-1 progression," you'll find fuller descriptions for free. Here is a basic 2-5-1 chord progression: Dmin --- Gdom --- Cmaj (min = minor, dom = dominant, Maj = major). Hope that helps!

[JammerVideo]

@iVideosongs Thanks a lot helps so much!

[MarokiSDA3]

plz i love the sound of this guitar ...could anyone tell me what is it ?

[jazzflutist]

@JammerVideo : A 2-5-1 in C Major is: Dm7-G7-CMaj7. If you build up notes in thirds on top of each note of C Major (i.e build up 7th chords on top of each note using only notes from C Major) you get CMaj7, Dmin7, Emin7, FMaj7, G7 (dominant seventh), Amin7, Bm7b5, CMaj7. E.g. for CMaj7, the notes are: C, E, G, B. So, the 251 in C Major is going D-F-A-C then G-B-D-F then C-E-G-B.

[Saintive]

Haha... I dont know why so many people say "Jazz chords" or Jazz voicings"... As if they belonged only to jazz... hehe... there's no such thing as "jazz chords"... they're just chords, people!

[dreblaze1200]

@Saintive You know very well what is meant. Certain chords are deemed "Jazz Chords" or "Gospel Chords" because of the Augs or Dim. 7ths and so forth. The progressions lend themselves to standard uses in these types of genres...giving a certain feel or vibe...don't be so negative...

[Passay]

Thank you for your service.

Happy New Year ;-)

[wolfgangk1]

Like the video, but a little hint from a seasoned teacher...

You may not want to throw out every chord you know at one time. I'd say no more than five chords...

just sayin...

[davblink]

how in the world do you memorize all those chords???!!

[JordiSmulders]

@davblink

Well, compare it with your typing skills. Most likely you are able to type (almost) blind. But this is years and years of practise, most likely daily excercises, to be able to type high speed and blind. Conclusion: Play ALOT (or have luck with loads of talent)

[JordiSmulders]

@davblink

and also, there are alot of patterns in the different chords. Basicly there are just 12 chords with alot of variations.

[ctndu2]

@davblink it's really easy actually, im pretty new to guitar and have been playing about a year now and im really suprised by the amount of chords iv memorised after a while it's nothing, you're just adding to the list. i may not necesarilly know the NAME of the chords, thats what i usually forget, but that can always be looked up, best way to remember them is learn songs that use em. good luck =D

[davblink]

@ctndu2 o...k.... :) will give it a shot.

[hiennguyenvinh]

wow,this tune sounds great,is it something you made up or is it a known piece?

Rob, thanks so much for taking the time not only to post this video, but to illustrate the chord diagrams and to show the tid-bit stuff, like the muting of the melody strings against the ringing bass note. I'm trying hard to learn some bossa, and you're making it really easy and fun. Thanks again!

[renata31000]

This is absolutely wonderful!!! You are a great tutor! I am finally going to learn those bossa nova chords I had wanted to learn for so many years! Thank you!

[SatansFloater]

To the author of this video, don't listen to all these whinging bitches on here. You're doing a very commendable job thoroughly explaining what is in essence a very hard genre of music to get a grasp of.

To all you naysayers, if you don't like this video, why don't you grow some balls and start posting your own jazz tutorials? Yeah, that's what I thought

[WiliamatheMusician]

@SatansFloater Amen.

[DonZabu]

@SatansFloater

"Don't like it, do better" is not valid reasoning and you know it.

[SatansFloater]

@DonZabu Well, me and 81 other people disagree chump. Thems the facts I'm afraid.

[DonZabu]

@SatansFloater

A guy hands you a sandwich. You take a bite. It turns out that the sandwich is filled with shit. It tastes awful.

Do you necessarily have to make a better sandwich in order to truthfully say "This sandwich tastes bad?"

(I'm not saying that the guitar playing here is bad, far from it. I'm just saying this as a general example to a general fallacy.)

[Phazur]

chord progression looks a lot like autumn leaves from miles davis, but with other extensions and octaves

[hugo182]

If you don't want to learn how to play, and just want to watch him playing, go to 14:45 .

[juanitoweb]

@hugo182 The problem is that the title says Bossa Rhythm, he shouldn't be teaching about the chords he's going to use. The real bossa lesson starts at 10:30. He should only mention the name of the chords he's playing. Summary: it's 2/2, and that the bass goes from the root (on the one) to the 5th (on the two, usually with an eight note added just before) of the chord being played.

[hugo182]

@juanitoweb I agree with you. I just meant to tell people where he starts playing.

[lappyrod]

@hugo182 haha I agree

[MrPianoguitar]

@hugo182 thanks

[claragary]

This progression is also used in Salsa

[daoneandonlystevy]

Dear guitaur teacher,

It's really such a shame that you talk way too much, because, honestley, it ruins the video, wich is a really awesome and interesting lesson. My advice; do the talking afterwards, because people wanna hear what they are going to to be teached. People don't like waiting. Especially not when the Rythms where the title is about starts only after 10 minutes. Do a quick overview of what to expect in the beginning. It would improve your video so much. Thanx if you read this.

[iVideosongs]

@daoneandonlystevy We appreciate and accept criticism, especially when it is worded in a way that's respectful to the people who put themselves out there to shoot these, and share their know-how and experience. Thanks!

[Marioguitar]

@iVideosongs yeah,I agree. It would be great if at the beginning you play the whole thing so we know what we will learn and then go straight to the chords. Thanks a lot for the lesson, beautiful chords. Really helpful

[CollapseOfReason]

@daoneandonlystevy It's a good thing "teached" isn't a word then.

[daoneandonlystevy]

@CollapseOfReason neither is "guitaur" :')

People make worse typos on the internet.

Just let them be please.

[gemgem24able]

@daoneandonlystevy i don't think "teached" is a typo though...

[gemgem24able]

@daoneandonlystevy i don't think "teached" is a typo though...

[gemgem24able]

@daoneandonlystevy oh really? i don't think "teached" is a typo though

[ryfleman]

@daoneandonlystevy I agree, that is a constructive comment. I would also suggest that when the teacher is speaking (especially for such a long period of time), please let us see the person speaking. (It gets a little dull watching hands talk after a while...)

[gemgem24able]

@ryfleman I don't think it's a constructive comment. He should have put it in a nicer way.

[haroliyk]

question: there is no E in your 'A7b13' chord voicing

- so can we not just call it A7+ ?

if not, why not?

[gtrrobster]

@haroliyk

that is a good question.... flat 6 and sharp 5 are the same pitch.....not sure when it is right call it one or the other.
