Musician/Producer Reacts to "Samba Pro Rapha" by Yamandu Costa 

Obrigado pelo carinho !!! Viva a música sempre !!

What the fuck did i just witness ...... mind blowing!

paco de lucia went to watch yamandu, and before anyone had time to move at the end of the show, he was already on his feet clapping for yamandu. Really, yamandu is the real deal

I went to Yamandu concert recently in Brazil, he took pictures with EVERYONE who was on the line (huge line) for pictures and chatting and autographs. Such a humble and simple person, he was there for more than an hour, happy and enjoying and making everyone feel good and having a good time with him. Love Yamandu for a long time.

Yamandú is The world master of the 7 strings guitar

Luiz Bonfà, Irio de Paula, Baden Powel, Paulinho Nogueira, Egberto Gismont, Rafael Rabello and now the amazing Yamandu Costa, the long dinastie of the Brasilian's guitar to be continued !!!!

Ver o Yamandu tocar me dá orgulho de ser brasileiro.

Boredom has a horror of Yamandu Costa. Where he performs, boredom does not enter. Useful advice when you go to see Yamandu: don't look to the side, don't talk, and don't blink your eyes so as not to miss anything. Thank you for promoting our music and our musicians.

So glad you discovered Yamandu. What always amazes me is the authority with which he handles his instrument. Some players look like they are caressing the strings, but Yamandu is clearly giving direct orders!

man this guy is awesome, thanks for mentioning my name! It's a great honor for me all of this! great music around the world, there are many virtuoso musicians hiding out there, and our mission is "mining" these musical geniuses! God bless all lovers of good music

Brazil has been an endless source of pure musical FIRE! F-ing hell, this lad is so crazy good he makes me want to either destroy or just put my musical instruments on sale.

Samba Pro Rapha was composed by Yamandu Costa and dedicated to Raphael Rabello. Unfortunately, Raphael died very early, but he left a great legacy. It's worth to check his work, there is plenty on RU-vid.

This is real Brazilian music, with the best brazilian guitar player, he plays 'Choro' and 'samba, if you like this, try this one: ''Roda de Choro | Corisco (Lourival Oliveira)/Oito Batutas (Pixinguinha) | Instrumental SESC Brasil''

I'm certain many guitarists put their guitars up for sale and look to change instruments after seeing him for the first time.

Virtuosity in action. Also, a pretty piece of music.

Yamandu Costa is well known in Europe, mainly France and Spain. You should listen to other "violão" players of Brasil, like Alessandro Penezzi, Gian Correia, Felix Junior, Cainã Cavalcante and many others. Brasilian "violão" style is unique in the world, deserves to be better known.

Absolutely incredible and breathtakingly beautiful. His tone and approach to playing reminds me a lot of Baden Powell but he adds so much to it - density, speed, layers.. just wow!

This guy is insane! you know how I love guitar and he will be added to the playlist!

Your reaction is so honest and sincere. I can see how deep his playing hit you. Yamandú is a genius ever lived.

the translation is'' samba for rapha'' (Rapha, is Raphael Rabello, another great brazilian guitar virtuose, that died in 90s, young, you should listen to raphael rabelo too, incredible, same style

Yamandu é a mensagem do divino ao povo desacreditado . A passagem da vida por esse universo ainda vale a pena. Somos todos passageiros Que possamos fazer o melhor.

Moro na cidade de Psso Fundo e nosso ilustre prefeito Pedro Almeida,, esta disponibilizando uma escola de musica chamada Yamandu Costa ,que é um maestro 5 estrelas,,,,salve a cultura!!!!!

A BRAZILIAN traditional music, played by one of the BEST BRAZILIAN guitar player EVER!!

a handful of Egberto Gismonti references thrown in gracefully.

Yamandu, obrigado por você existir e ser brasileiro!

Impossível ouvir o Yamandu tocar sem escorrer lágrimas. É de uma beleza absurda.

Yes, sir. You just listened to one of the GREATEST guitarists of our time.

Le baje la velocidad al vídeo para ver la calidad de la digitación y me impresionó lo hermosa que es la música que compuso. La pude degustar a pleno. Sin dudas tiene una velocidad impresionante, pero es mucho más que eso. Puro talento.

When I saw yamundu I clicked instantly, my favorite acoustic guitar player, Brazil is lucky to have him, and you should probably look to some other Brazilian songs I think you would really like Pedacinho do céu Astronauta baden Powell Samba em prelúdio ( i love Paulinho nogueira's interpretation of that one) Manhã de carnaval These are all incredible good

Vc não é normal cara, não é possível tanto virtuosismo associado a uma canção agradável demais de ouvir.

Todas as vezes que vejo uma nova apresentação do fenômeno brasileiro Yamandu Costa eu percebo o quanto ele se redescobre, cada vez mais precioso e desbravador. Sim, Yamandu tem muito ainda para explorar e deixar para a posteridade obras simplesmente maravilhosas. Esse rapaz é só motivo de orgulho para todos nós brasileiros.

Yamandu is our Hendrix! He is a very nice guy, play with joy! Love to see playing alive, it´s an experience!

He plays way too many notes...now there are none left for the rest of us...

Glad to see this one on your channel, Jeff :) Yamandu is a giant and a force of nature. I just love the musicality and the sheer fun he has when playing, not even mentioning his insane chops! To me it feels as if there’s no division between him and his instrument… It’s worth checking out more of his stuff, I reckon. Thanks for another great reaction 🙏 (and for the suggestion, whoever it was:)

O Brasil tem tradição de grandes músicos Laurindo de Almeida, Baden Powell,Rafael Rabelo até chegar em Yamandu Costa.

Yamandu é simplesmente MARAVILHOSO! 👏👏👏👏🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷

Its a pleasure listening Yamandu. Thank you for posting!

Woouuw, that was so encredible and beautiful ….. oh my …. thank youu🙏🏼💜🎶😃🤗

Very good

Interessante ver a cara que vai de "Isso é incrível!!" para simplesmente uma aceitação e apreciação...

Kkkkkk esse é o Yamanduuuuu....um cara ímpar. Não nascem muitos como ele. Sorte nossa tê-lo no Brasil.

Yamandu is a real monster!

Hi Jeff, curious to check this out with you, never heard this, I know your channel from your reactions to Angelina Jordan... I had been watching a performance of Mon Laferte before when I saw your reaction to this in my suggestions, and as I love Samba, Brazilian music, and knew you and your channel as profoundly deep musically (from the way you react to Angelina, your double on "Summertime" was great, thanks again!) I thought this might be interesting - I'm so gladI hopped on it, sometimes YT algo is really helpful... what a great piece of music, art, craft, feeling ...this guy is mind blowing! Great discovery, thanks for reacting and sharing, I hope for more! Best regards from Bavaria, peace & love! Have a great day and enjoy it!

He's amazing! And so are you azmazed now! That's Music. This is Brasil.

If you liked his video playing that song you should go to his show! Seeing him playing his accustic guittar is amazing!

Your reaction is the same as mine when I watched it. Absolutely phenomenal! Lots of us have a lot of practicing to do. Just amazing! 😊👍

He's is the best of the best fenomenal guitar player.

Yamandu is the only guitarist whose music is so sublime, it makes me cry. I'm going to see him LIVE in 2 days, I can't wait! A Master of Masters. Hail Yamandu Costa!

In a way, Yamandu pays homage to Raphael Rabello not only with this samba, but through his musical trajectory, which clearly found inspiration in Raphael. In fact, Yamandu played with musicians who in the 90s had performed spectacular duets with Raphael. One of these guys is called Armandinho Macedo, a great mandolin virtuoso, born in my city. I had the joy of going to a Yamandu and Armandinho concert. Simply sensational. 🎼🎵🎶👏♥️

This song Yamandu composed in honor of the greatest Brazilian violinist who unfortunately died; Raphael Rabello. Yamandu is certainly among the best violinists in the world, admired even by Paco de Lucía. Greetings from Brazil!

From Brazil 🇧🇷🇧🇷👏👏👏

Yamandu é musico de deixar de boca aberta qualquer profissional especializado do mundo.

Yamandu is one of the latest bricks layed on the tall walls of the brazilian guitar tradition. So thank you all for admiring Yamandu's art: this means automatically paying homage to the long list of equally gifted brazilian past and present artists of the guitar.

Um dos melhores do mundo. One of the best of the world.

Yamandu é um mestre 👍👍👍 admiro demais....queria tocar só um milésimo do que ele sabe!!! 😀😀🙏

Yamandu , A Guitar legend.

linda homenagem ao eterno Raphael Rabello.

Yamandu é verdadeiramente extraordinário 🇧🇷

Bravo…orgulhoso da nossa música verdadeira. Bom demais!

Yamandu is a GENIUS!!!! Please also check out Raphael Rabello as well! That’s who the song is dedicated to!

With Yamandu, there is no slow or basic rhythm, with him it is always a show of performance in the agility of the notes, with harmony and perfection.

Nice reaction to Yamandu's outworldly skills! He's from a musician family from Southern Brasil, bordering Argentina, Paraguai, and started at 6 years old to play around. Samba pro rapha is his homage to his idol, the no less impressive Raphael Rabelo, who unfortunately has passed away when only 32 years old. Yamandu's execution and phrasing of his homage is intentionally similar to Raphael's playing style, which I was fortunate enough to see live some occasions. The samba aspect of it is the insane accentuation of the syncope with the bass notes, giving that 'jumping' sense between notes, like two guitars at the same time. Very cool tribute to his guitar idol. Kudos!

Viva la musica instrumental bella interpretación.

Yamandu Costa is the best musician on the 7-string guitar on the planet

You listen to it once and you will never forget it. Vous l'écoutez une fois et vous ne l'oublierez jamais. Você ouve uma vez e nunca vai esquecer.

Yamandu is not human. My god

Depois do Raphael, eu não vinha tendo me sentindo órfão de um violonista capaz de inspirar tanto até o aparecimento do Yamandu. Só tenho a agradecer!

Da prazer de ouvir

Does anyone remember Bola Sete , the genius Brazilian guitarist who was big in the 60’s and 70’s? He played jazz with Vince Guaraldi and Dizzy Gillespie as well as having his own brilliant career. This gentleman reminds me of him.

Yamandu realmente é incrível .. deixa todos nós brasileiros orgulhosos ..

Yamandu is great! Thanks for this.

Grande Yamandu Costa ♥️♥️🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷 orgulho

Yes! Yamandu Costa is 🔥

Mr. Stratele , your mouth was open in amazement...lots .

you should check out Sebastião Tapajós too, he was another Brazilian guitar player in this style

nunca tive o prazer de vê-lo tocar ao vivo, mas deve ser uma parada surreal!

His playing is so crisp, accurate and full of emotion. Makes you want some more.

É uma obra de arte simplesmente fantástico

Gênio. Insano. Obra do Divino.

que orgulho ele e brasileiro

Este tio es una bestia.

Yamandu is a fenomenal! He is a mystic musical guitar with so many rithms and attributes of the various countries, like Argentina, Uruguai, Colombia, Espanha and tribal cultures of Brasil.

O Yamandu tem mãos rebeldes pra música, fazem e desfazem os acordes...

Viva a música! Viva o Brasil!

Yamandu é do Brasil !!!!❤

Emocionante
