Master Bossa Nova rhythms and chord melody!
Who doesn’t love the relaxed feeling of Bossa Nova? Imagine sitting in the evening sun, playing the most iconic Bossa standards. My Bossa Nova lesson bundle will teach you all you need to do just that, in a structured mini course.
I recommend starting with the Bossa Patterns. This will help you get the comping and also the chord melody tunes right. Chord melody can be challenging when a rhythm is supposed to fill the spaces between the melody. If you have the Bossa rhythm under your fingers it will come naturally and won't be that much of a struggle anymore.
The chosen selection includes the most popular Bossa Nova songs, arranged in a beginner friendly way by yours truly.
Finally, you'll get the 10 Basic Jazz Chords sheet as a bonus. This will help you to have a systematic overview of the most important jazz chords.
* You need the Guitar Pro software to open the GP files. Guitar Pro is a software by Arobas Music that plays back written music notation / TABS. I don't sell this software, I just write TABS for it. Those files are a free bonus! If you don't own the Guitar Pro software, just use the PDF Tab instead. It's the SAME notation / TAB.
