Hi, Sandra, I have followed this tutorial and I have found it very effective. Your playing is very attractive, your arrangement is so tasteful and your teaching is very professional and perfect. So, I have bought the PDF because I want to keep it in my favourite songs. Thank you very much for your music and also for being such a nice person!
You are very welcome. Some day perhaps you could do a chord melody on another of my favorite bossa's, 'Triste" You play so nice, I like your vibe. It flows so nicely. Keep up the great songs. Jerry from PA-USA
I don't know if you remember but I'm the one who requested this song you made it easy for me to play I know it's hard and some teachers make almost impossible thank you Bobby!
Hi Bobby, this song was actually requested by many viewers 😊. I'm glad you get along with my arrangement. It took me a while, bc the original key is a terrible choice for chord melody style. So after a while I decided to change it. Happy playing, Sandra
Thank you Sandra, I've fallen in love with Latin music again (not just Santana LOL) which I first heard as a youngster in the 60's . I can't wait for you to make an arrangement of Meditation by Tom Jobim, fingers crossed.
I will eventually do that. I can only do so many Bossa standards, bc RU-vid demonitizes each single one of them and I need to make a little money to produce the tutorials.
Rommel43 You're too funny 😁 I'm actually very well informed about sales channels. I was just building a big enough audience. And as I said, you gotta give first, then ask. Works well. Your input is always welcome. I'll write you a check 😁
Oh, I’m loving this chord melody journey you’re taking us on and this song is one of my favorites that I’ve been trying to learn for a very long time. Thank you so much for being such a badass jazz guitarist who isn’t stingy with your lessons. ~Cheers!
Hi Sandra , I am a Brazilian living in USA and would love to learn Corcovado from our greatest Jobim. Your classes are very helpful and well done with all the necessary details. Thank you . Marco

WHAT WONDER AS YOU EXPLAIN I LOVE YOUR IMMENSE WORK THANKS TO YOU I AM RETURNING A GUITAR TOUCHING I FASCINATE AND I AM PASSIONATE MILLIONS OF THANK YOU CONTINUE SO I HAVE THERE AND THERE ARE MORE PERNSONAS LIKE YOUR GREETINGS FROM VENEZUELA BY ROHIVERTH
I never heard this tune before! Great lesson and today I bought a chord melody book by Jody Fisher. Do you have a book out to compliment your videos? 😃 😊
oh I'm soooo glad I found you a few days ago!! I really want to play some jazz/latin guitar and I always found it so hard by myself - there are (imo) hardly good online teachers out there!! thank you so much for your amazing work, you encouraged me trying this style again. Also, I'm from Vienna, Austria :) do you live there too maybe? Would love to take some lessons!
Great video Sandra. I just worked out a chord melody in D in the higher octave of the guitar (up to the 19th fret) so to have room to fit the chords underneath the melody. Do you think that this is up too high to sound good? I was wondering how other (more advanced) guitarists play it which brought me to your video. If you wanted to play it in D, would you prefer to play it up high or play it down an octave and somehow fit the chords around it?
Nope. Don't like them 😁. I play regular round wounds by Thomastik kBebop series). For more info on my gear and recommendations for jazz guitar equipment look up my video here on YT (I released it just a couple of weeks ago)
What song style is this? My housemates play something similar, they have a backing track and jam out with these bluesy jazzy chords intermittently that sound so fucking badass. Is it like jazz wave?
I'm sorry, I had no complaint about that before. I made them as big as possible, without interfering with the video. Actually the in-video-chords are just an extra service. The video is free and a lot of work (about 5 days). I try to make up for the time and efforts by selling the TAB/music notes. So my intention is not to give everything for free, bc I hope you understand I need to live from something too. If you can't read the chords, Presse consider buying the very affordable TAB/music notes.
