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.
