A masterpiece of our music, when we had terrific musicians, songwriters, and performers; Brazilian music being widely appreciated, playing on the radios in Brazil, they were the mainstream. Today is a shame, the media has reduced our richest music and culture to a bundle of poor songs highly influenced by the worst pop music ever. Thank you for what you have been doing in your channel, spreading the beauty and complexity of our music and culture. Muito obrigado.

Thank you! I hope it's helpful.

Your version is very nice sounding. Now , if it can help, the base of this piece is only 4 chords (B7M>B7-E7M-Em7). This well known and fertile pattern is called a Christophe. Every other chords are substitutions, the F for example is a tritonic substition of B (a triton below). There's no G#m6, the chord is a E on his third. The fact that it has the same notes as a G#m6 is just accidental due to the chromatic voicing of the bass (melodic conduct of voices, contrepoint) Bossa composer are the best when it comes to lead listeners to harmonic confusion, thanks to the predominance of the melody, horizontal thinking (contrepoint, think Bach) against the vertical thinking (harmony). That's why chords seem complicated, it is due to the fact that some notes are just there for melodical reasons. I find it confusing and wrong to consider them as real part of the chords when they are just passing for the sake of beauty, the composer wants to hear them.

Thanks for openning my eyes on this. Bossa is so nice sounding músic but hard to learn for most of us not having a deep musical knowlege.

[@henkdevries2002]

I agree, I think of these chords as the V/IV in third inversion, which is usually expected to move to IV (Eb maj 7) but moves to the Emin7b5/G which has all the same notes except the root is a half step raised which allows for chromatic voice leading. This is a common deceptive cadence, going to #4 half dim instead of IV. heard in for example ''Georgia on my mind'' by Oscar Peterson. Then instead of going to IV it goes to ivminor, again inverted to allow for chromatic voice leading. which resolves to second inversion tonic, commonly known as minor plagal cadence. Then tritone sub V of /IV (whole tone scale is implied) to IV then finally backdoor b7dom to I (variation on minor plagal). Beatifull harmonies!

[@johnlaxodsfinter6151]

Thanks for teaching us this wonder of the brazilian músic. I'd like you yo make a tutorial on "Desafinado" please.

[@MichaelMcClintockMusic]

I'll add it to the list. Thanks!

[@AntonioCarlos33644]

Desafinado e linda

[@GuilhermeSilva-rp2it]

Chega de saudade

[@bradwilliamson9172]

Thanks! I've just found your channel but really enjoy how you show the chords and right hand so effectively. I really enjoy bossa nova and play many of the songs you've provided videos for but your arrangements are so clear and helpful. Regards,

[@MichaelMcClintockMusic]

Thanks, Brad! I'm very happy they are helpful.

[@jackdeago3639]

Can you make tutorial for the lonely shepherd

[@MichaelMcClintockMusic]

Hey Jack, I've got a list of songs to teach but, I'll add this one for you. Thanks for the request!

[@JigsHidalgoMusic]

Hello! Please can you do Brigas Nunca Mais tutorial using Tom and Elis too?

[@MichaelMcClintockMusic]

Absolutely, I'll add it to my list.

[@JigsHidalgoMusic]

@@MichaelMcClintockMusic Wow! Thank you so much! I'm looking forward to it! I'm currently into Brazilian Guitar and have already bookmarked lots of your videos for me to go through. 😀

[@monikaglaser191]

Thanks for this great piece! Played so well - world class! the chords look pretty difficult. how many years do you have to play the guitar to dare to try something like this? I'm looking forward to your next bossa nova video! greetings from Germany

[@MichaelMcClintockMusic]

Hi Monika, honestly it's all about having a good teacher. If someone can assist you with some left hand technique and exercises, that would be big. I would be more than happy to help you if you like. I do a lot of teaching online via Zoom and would be happy to help you out. Feel free to email me at [e-mail] if you like. I'll be back soon with more lessons.

[@brendaparaarquivos2290]

👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽🇧🇷

[@MichaelMcClintockMusic]

Thanks!

[@nayaswisa8284]

Why didn't you explain the (rhythm) in this song? How am I supposed to learn from your video? I tried to play like you, but it does not work because you change the rhythm revery moment...🥺

[@MichaelMcClintockMusic]

Are you familiar with these two Bossa Nova rhythms shown in this video? kzbin.info/www/bejne/a5bZnpSPgZ5pa8U These are the basis for everything that I and most people build upon. I'd start here.
