In this lesson I am going to show you a one bar Bossa Nova pattern and some jazz chords so that you use this groove to play through the song Blue Bossa.
Bossa Nova is, like Rock and Blues, a music that was invented on guitar. It has also become an essential part of Jazz and Pop repertoire in terms of must know grooves.
I have been getting requests for a Bossa Nova tutorial for the last 2 years. I decided to make it a small series because I think each groove deserves a lesson in itself. When you work on this it is better if you take them one at a time. That way you get really familiar with the feel and how to phrase them.

I'm studying music, and I just got blue bossa!!! Thanks for the upload. I am going to play a George Benson solo and a Pat Martino solo, if you were wondering.

@JensLarsen 8 лет назад

Great! Good luck with it! The Benson solo is great!

JENS SIR CAN I USE PICKING OR SHOULD I PLAY FINGERSTYLE LIKE URES..

@JensLarsen 6 лет назад

Fingers is the way to go if you want it to sound right! 🙂

@PaulChaplo 3 месяца назад

Thanks again Jens! These videos make Bossa Nova accessible and do-able to so many of us. I just downloaded Drum Genius app; can you tell me which Bossa Nova grooves may be most useful for these lessons? I’m asking bc I get to pick 5 tracks for free.

@JensLarsen 3 месяца назад

Glad you like them! Probably the generic ones, try Bossa 1,3 and 5?

@balybaloo 3 года назад

what was the name of the app you mentioned jens?i tried to get it by slowing down speed but couldnt get it!?

@JensLarsen 3 года назад

I probably talk about DrumGenius?

@lingwistawawpl Год назад

Around 7:30 - I am a bit confused because I can clearly see your index finger picking the 5th string separately - after which high strings pull-off comes in, but the tabs are not showing this. The tab is showing the 6th string picked in separation. Where does the 5th string pick-up come from?

@JensLarsen Год назад

I can see what you mean, but it is just a ghost note which is not really audible (and it is on the 4ths string)

@smatlanta1 8 лет назад

Yay! I've been waiting for you to do some Bossa rhythm lessons. I'm so happy you are doing a little series on it. ...Love your lessons, so much!

@JensLarsen 8 лет назад

You're very welcome Steve! I am glad you enjoy the videos! Remember that you can always help me by sharing a video and spread the word! :)

@daviddahl8562 2 года назад

I can't get my fingers right for that fiinger picking I'm trying to figure away to make it work with a pick

@JensLarsen 2 года назад

That is difficult to get to sound the same 🙂

@michaeldusso6882 2 года назад

The great thing about these BoSSa chords-rhythms, and patterns is that you can take them and do all kinds of things with them.

@barrykidd1977 Год назад

I take the pattern and play it in a walking swing style. It sounds like a 70s TV theme.

@gersonsantarine574 11 месяцев назад

@professorchaos9171 Год назад

Slow down when you speak

@JensLarsen 3 месяца назад

You can turn down the speed of the video as well

@JeffreySaxophoneTallNewton Год назад

How to combine what's in this video with the melody (without using a looper)? Is it possible?

@barrykidd1977 Год назад

I am starting with your book this week. I’ve almost mastered the major 3rds exercises in the first chapter. I love your teaching style.

@jasonmudgarde286 Год назад

Hi Jens, did you ever do a video on Estate? These chords sounded very similar. Thanks

@KonradSchK 5 месяцев назад

Fantastic! how would you aproach this as a solo guitarist playing to this?

@asdtrio8972 6 лет назад

Hi jens, i want to ask if we played in a band do we have to play the bass 1-5 part too ?

@JensLarsen 6 лет назад

That depends on what the bass player is doing, but mostly you can for these types of slower songs

@oddsocks2428 4 года назад

one of the best teachers on youtube, bravo!

@JensLarsen 4 года назад

Thank you 🙂

@loulou321 7 лет назад

Many thanks Jens, this is really good stuff. Just right for me to make some progress. Love it!

@JensLarsen 7 лет назад

Glad you like it! Good luck with the practice! 😀

@marilynsherbring2773 5 лет назад

I’m learning Blue Bossa in my Jazz Mandolin class but don’t play guitar. Still your videos about Blue Bossa, all your videos really, help me with my understanding of theory and getting into the groove. I have to methodically translate notes and from guitar to mando, but mostly I just listen to what you play and work towards your sound. Your approach to jazz works for me regardless of the instrument. 🙏 You are 😎 . . . And 🔥!

@benjaminsaraviatoledo6643 7 лет назад

Hello Jens! Thank you for your lesson again and share your knowledge, i wanted to know if did you do a lesson focused in how to make Walking Bass with chords? Thank you Very much

@JensLarsen 7 лет назад

That's a great idea! :D How about one of these: ru-vid.com/group/PLWYuNvZPqqcFEu6QldXHj6iE0dS0jSexX Some of them are a bit old though :)

@kyanche Год назад

This is a nice break from driving my newbie self nuts trying to play affirmation. lol. Thanks!

@JensLarsen Год назад

Glad you like it 🙂

@BrandochGarage 3 года назад

That Cm7 voicing may require surgery... haha. Love these voicings for this song, though. Simple and beautiful.

@JensLarsen 3 года назад

Haha! It's not that bad 😁

@BrandochGarage 3 года назад

@@JensLarsen I've been practising all day and it's already getting easier.

@Adler96 6 лет назад

Hey Jens, I trust players over publishers, but why is that everyone seems to play the F minor 7 for 2 measures, but in my real book on the first line, F minor 7 gets 1 measure followed by 1 measure of B flat 7 then into D minor 7 flat 5, etc.?

@JensLarsen 6 лет назад

That's actually what they play on the original recording, but it was not in the old realbook like that (and I don't like how it sounds personally) so that's why I don't do that 🙂

@Adler96 6 лет назад

Ah ok, thank you so much for the speedy reply, your videos are huge in helping me with my audition to music school :) Much appreciated!

@JensLarsen 6 лет назад

That's great! Good luck with the audition!

@gibbonmountainchronicles6367 7 лет назад

Thank you very much for your generosity. I have been wanting to play bossa nova but never had the time... finally I'm doing it !

@JensLarsen 7 лет назад

Great! I will probably upload part 2 this week! :)

@gibbonmountainchronicles6367 7 лет назад

Looking forward...again,thanks a million

@nikolay9947 7 лет назад

Amazing job man, I was watching your other blue bossa chords video, and was wondering about the feel. Then I found this video, which thoroughly explains the feel of the composition. I think you are doing a great job in explaining all the details.

@JensLarsen 7 лет назад

Thank you Nik! I am glad you find the videos useful! :)

@nikolay9947 7 лет назад

@donbelisario8811 7 лет назад

Hi, i understand that te last chord voicings are a ii V I, but what about the first chord voicings de Cm7/Fm7/Dm7b5/G7 from wich scale are those came from ?

@JensLarsen 7 лет назад

Hi Mark it's in Cm so they are I IV II and V in Cm. You'd need more than one scale to navigate them though. Did you check out this video: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-SGDUbZUi5mA.html

@donbelisario8811 7 лет назад

Thanks Mr. Larseb i see now the underlaying structure of the harmony, it would be great if in the future you could make a vid about the harmony structure of blues i know about de I7 IV7 and V7 but again, from wich scales are those voicings (chord progressions) come from

@JensLarsen 7 лет назад

How about this: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ZsVbpbZ1Pq8.html

@alejandroleiva6548 8 лет назад

what scale can I use in this progression?? Thank you so much for the videos!!

@JensLarsen 8 лет назад

You need a few scales for Blue Bossa, maybe start with this lesson: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-SGDUbZUi5mA.html

@thadbonduris2462 4 года назад

Great summary, Jens!...I just HAD to hear that guitar! Who is the maker?..."piano & bass just cheap imitations..."....ha ha ha, I loved it! I will let that be known to the next bass player who shows up late :0 keep up the great work!

@JensLarsen 4 года назад

Thank you, Thad! It is a line6 guitar, I forget which model exactly 🙂

@thadbonduris2462 4 года назад

Jens Larsen Wow, I had no idea line 6 made a classical guitar, it sure does sound good, and it looks like fun to play. Thanks!

@piercealexander 8 лет назад

I really like this lesson and look forward to seeing the others in the series! I think The Girl From Ipanema is another good tune to work on these kinds of comping rhythms. I could see how the bridge could get difficult to fit into a lesson but I think it'd be pretty cool to see a lesson on it!

@JensLarsen 8 лет назад

Thanks Pierce! I get that "The Bitch in F" is an obvious choice for a bossa nova lesson, but it really doesn't matter that much which tune you take, it is about the groove right? There are recordings of Girl From with the groove from this lesson if I remember correctly though the phrasing of the melody often suggests another groove, especially in the original language.

@piercealexander 8 лет назад

Jens Larsen Jens Larsen that's true I like the Stan Getz version a lot and that recording does have a very similar groove.
