The Girl From Ipanema - How to Play

Felipe Coelho gives a simple instructional on how to play "The Girl from Ipanema", both just accompaniment as well as solo chord-melody. This is a courtesy of the Secrets of Brazilian Guitar Complete Course: www.secretsofbrazilianguitar.club.hotmart.com
I'll teach rhythms to bass lines, melodies, harmonic analysis and especially the right hand techniques to execute styles like samba, partido alto, choro, afoxé and many others.

Loving how you break down the chord tones and theory. Much better than just fingers and frets.

[@dennisgenio943]

This is the most precise and easy to understand about playing "Girl from Ipanema" Bravo. You defined the co-relation between each melody behind each chord. Your intuition in music are instinct and inborn qualities. Not everyone can teach that way.

[@FelipeCoelhoGuitar]

Wow thank you bro, that was a very flattering compliment

[@alenlev3150]

Hi Felipe! Just worked this out by ear a couple of weeks ago and thought I’d have a look on KZbin to see other versions for added info. Yours was the most informative by far. Thank you. I learned a lot from your explanation and performance. All the best from Bonnie Scotland!

[@rexroman5211]

[Intro: João Gilberto] Dim-dum-dum, pling-gung-gung, pling-gung-gung [Verso 1: João Gilberto] Olha que coisa mais linda, mais cheia de graça É ela a menina que vem e que passa Num doce balanço a caminho do mar Moça do corpo dourado do sol de Ipanema O seu balançado é mais que um poema É a coisa mais linda que eu já vi passar [Refrão: João Gilberto] Ah, por que estou tão sozinho? Ah, por que tudo é tão triste? Ah, a beleza que existe A beleza que não é só minha Que também passa sozinha [Verso 2: João Gilberto] Ah, se ela soubesse Que quando ela passa O mundo sorrindo se enche de graça E fica mais lindo por causa do amor

[@antonioalmeida8099]

Boa Noite ! Estimado Prof de Guitarra Coelho: : sua lição é realmente de Mestre . Mas poderia explicar em Português. Fazer um desenho de seus acordes. E dizer qualé a marca de sua fabulosa guitarra, de 7 cordas ! Muito grato

[@FelipeCoelhoGuitar]

A marca é Luthier Wellington Polegario.

[@evideoviewer]

Good tutorial, I wish there had been more explanation of fingers positioning at 16:28 to 17:05 minute mark at the 7th and 8th positions.

[@johannesseisweise9165]

B Section starts at 10:33

[@emlyngriffith5846]

Great lesson of a complex song although I find the extra bass string a little off putting…..👍🍷

[@TheHesseJames]

Honestly took me a couple of minutes noticing it, threw me off quite a bit 😀

[@gassave]

It would help if there is a "chord chart". Cant really see where you place all your fingers

[@mvp019]

How I wish I understood the fretboard and chord voicings like you do; great stuff. I had a teacher in grad school named Coelho. What are the 2 extra strings on your guitar? Are the 6 in the middle the same as a "regular" guitar?

[@FelipeCoelhoGuitar]

Ha thats cool! Thanks for watching!

[@306ilya_2]

why does his guitar have 7 strings?

[@monklymusic6886]

It’s super common for Brazilian music, especially Choro, to use 7 strings guitar and not have a bass player. Lowest string covers that range.

[@josegeraldodacostaleal2323]

Garota de Ipanema, autores Vinicius de Moraes e tom jobim, bossa-nova.Abraços Cordiais.

[@tangomechanic]

When teaching chord voicings especially on an eight string guitar a diagram is called for. It would be helpful and that's the objective of this lesson, to be helpful. Otherwise great tutorial.

[@FelipeCoelhoGuitar]

7. But you are right. But it takes too much work.

[@hueyhoolihan582]

it helps (almost a necessity) to know more theory than he does to understand this. :)

[@FelipeCoelhoGuitar]

Well, the theory info is just a bonus. Being able to see where the fingers are and hear the notes should be enough

[@nana6076]

cant understand at all

[@nana6076]

tell me only cord

[@elysium619]

Waaaaaay too much chatter. Just shut and play with accompanying chord diagrams, for Christ's sake! Period. This is what guitar players express that want time and time again. Not looking for a degree in theory or chord chemistry.

[@FelipeCoelhoGuitar]

🤣

[@iggykarpov]

Felipe, thank you so much for this incredibly detailed and useful lesson on this great song! I have watched many, but yours truly stands out! PS if you'd like, you might want to pin my earlier comment with time codes for other guitarists to use

[@FelipeCoelhoGuitar]

Good idea
