I'm a 51 yo Brazilian and grew up with hard rock, metal and punk. It wasn't until I moved abroad that I started appreciating the genius of bossa nova music, and could correct a mistake in my musical education. Funny how sometimes you have to look at something from the outside to really understand it.
You only understand from outside,only way to understand from inside is through meditation
When I moved to Brazil completely enamoured with all things Brazilian, my new friends made fun of me when I kept buying old LPs of Vinicius de Moraes, Toquinho, Tom Jobim, Joao Gilberto, Baden Powel. They thought Bossa Nova and MPB was lame.
To me it was incredibly rich and simply the most beautiful and poetic music I had ever heard.
A lot of them rediscovered the beauty of their national treasure through listening to those old vinyl records at my place.
Same thing happened to me, though, I had looked outward to the world seeking beauty and only by leaving could I rediscover and appreciate the beauty of my culture’s traditional and folk music.
Hi there from a german metal head, 43 yo… i am learning flamenco guitar at the moment after listening to metal my whole life
Já pensou misturar hard rock com bossa nova? Tipo Ratt com Tom Jobim? Se não me engano o Warren Demartini usa licks oriundos do jazz em seus solos.
Like seeing earth from outer space!
“All you need is 7 chords”
Me, playing New Wave and Post-Punk: wait... more than 4????
Seven chord SHAPES ;)
Well, Desafinado, one of the greatest songs of all time has 33 different chord shapes. Good luck with that one!!
What about a post punk with 7 chords? :-)
Ha!!
Just adding some info, people that I have received at "Um café lá em casa" are, among others, Romero Lubambo, joão Bosco, Marcos Valle, Lula Galvao, Leila Pinheiro, Ivan Lins, João Donato, Roberto Menescal, Carlos Lyra, etc... I hope you can consider my invitation.
UM CAFÉ LÁ EM CASA my two favorite youtube channel
Such Amazing work by rick and nelson
+ÚM CAFE LA EM CASA
I absolutely love your channel Nelson! One guest suggestion: would you ever have a chance getting Bebeto Castilho on your program? If you get the chance, it would be marvelous.
Now Stanley Jordan
All those chords are in the Modern Method for Guitar book 1.
Last but not least, Mike Stern and Stanley Jordan went there, too. Please, Rick, consider his invitation!
Spectacular editing. Time well spent. No empty chitchat. Thank you Rick.
I'm trying to be concise. No fat. People are busy!
@@RickBeato Love that about ALL your stuff, Rick.
My old boss used to say "Timing is everything"... and my dad's favourite was "Time is money". Both knew "you can't get it back!"
For everybody interested in Brazilian guitar, Nelson Faria's book (Brazilian guitar book) is a must study. There's no better material.
Definitely agreed on the book. It's also highly useful for guitarists interested in Bossa Nova who might need to get at least some idea about other Brazilian music, especially Samba (which is pretty much inevitable).
I also recommend the bossanovaguitar channel for inspiration on rhythmic figures (love the classification it offers).
Emperor Spock I have skimmed through the book however I felt it focused more on the rhytmic part more than the harmonic part, please correct me if Im wrong.
Thanks for for endorsing my book here. Best, Nelson
You're most welcome, Nelson! I love your book.
Thanks! I like a lot Rick's videos. Don't agree with the harmonic analysis in this case, but the grip of the chords are good, so , no problem! :-) Best, Nelson
This is really helpful for me. Previously, I had assumed that Bossa Nova was simply a preset on my Grandfather's Hammond Organ.
Jobim, João Gilberto, Astrud, Vinícius: gênios.
E fiquei muito feliz de ver o incrível Nelson Faria aqui nos comentários. Espero que eles tenham trocado uma ideia.
Ô, mundo pequeno... Abração, Mauro!
Trocaram! Uma hora de papo!
I'm a beginner guitarist and never has this instrument felt more fun and engaging to learn than with this chord progression and pattern. Thank you for reigniting the passion that made me start learning
Rick, just a couple of corrections: first, João Gilberto was the guitar player who invented the Bossa Nova, not Jobim. He's the one singing the Portuguese lyrics and playing guitar on the record. Jobim's primary instrument was the piano. Also, Vinicius de Moraes cowrote the song -- it's a minor point, but the lyrics are very important in this particular song. Lastly, when can we get a "What makes this song great?" episode of this song?
That's correct !
Tom Jobim played bossa nova in Rio de Janeiro long before João Gilberto arrived from Juazeiro, in Bahia. Songs like '' Por causa de voce'' with Dolores Duran, had already been written and played in Rio de Janeiro. the Álbum Chega de saudade, it was basically arranged by Tom Jobim who was the musical director of that record, where Joao was going to visit Tom at his place in Poço Fundo. To the musicians of the time, Nana Caymmi for example, where Tom frequented the house, playing for musicians like Maestro Leo perachi, Dorival Caymmi, probably started with the style of bossa nova long before Joao Gilberto arrived in Rio.
Ps, sou brasileiro
@@alysonmoreira8119 Alyson, tudo bem, não fiquei muito claro. I'll write in English, however, for all. You are correct that Jobim is the main composer/chief architect of Bossa Nova, wrote most all of the best songs, etc. He is the genre's biggest and best composer.
But Ruy Castro's (a respectable Brazilian journalist, for those unfamiliar with Brazil) book on the History of Bossa Nova, he notes that the signature guitar and singing style came from João Gilberto. He writes that João G spent months in the bathroom in Diamantina, in 1956, perfecting his guitar sound and voice. The new guitar rhythm, he writes, was a simplified version the samba beat, and he perfected a combination of guitar and voice together. Check out Chapter 7 of his book and you'll see what I'm talking about.
Sobre o primeiro ponto, eu não acredito que é plausível creditar a "Invenção" de um gênero a um indivíduo, seja Tom Jobim, João Gilberto ou qualquer outro. Penso que é mais justo e coerente com a história entender que cada personagem teve seu papel no desenvolvimento da linguagem desse tipo de música, todos relevantes e integrantes de um construto sociocultural.
Where does Joao Pernambuco fit into this story? Just Curious as I haven't researched into this topic enough but am familiar with a few Brazilian composers.

Hats off for pronouncing João Gilberto Jobim correctly! Super rare for an American on UA-cam. Muito bom.
I lived in your country for the better part of 3 years. My Spanish-speaking friends here in Houston all have a difficult time speaking & understanding Brazilian Portuguese, while in Brazil, everyone seemed to have a basic understanding of South American Spanish. ("João" is one of the more difficult names to say correctly, IMO)
(According to subtitles) - "Hi everyone, I'm Rigby Otto".🤣🤣
Love your content Rick. I swear you're getting better and better as a teacher and you're a fine musician to boot.
Much love and respect from here in the UK. ♥️🙏♥️
These are beautiful chords and I appreciate the Bossa Nova right hand pattern. I thought this lesson consisted of 7 chords only to see there were actually 13 different chords, so that was a disappointment. I did see that you clarified that at the end that there were 7 "chord patterns". Over all well done. Thank you.
Rick, been loving your presentations, but this Jobim coaching session is unexpected gold - never saw it coming - thankyouthankyou!!!
Excellent tutorial on playing the bossa nova. Clear, explantory, instructive. Thank you.........
Sweet. Gorgeous melody over those chords. I love Jobim. Thanks, Rick.
Hey Rick, thanks for this video! I am very happy to see an exceptional musician like you promoting this typical Brazilian musical style. That means a lot to us Brazilians! Nice job!
Rick Beato! Crazy how you lived down the street from me,As you commented on another video,you actually lived across from the Willow Grove mall,in I guess 91 or 92 We may have crossed paths and never knew it.
first time that i watch a straight to the point guitar lesson. it was awesome, rick. learned a lot this time. i will continue following you.
Thank you Rick. 50 years of attempting to play and you make it much easier for me.
Hi Rick!!! I'm a bassplayer from Rio de Janeiro and I loved your vídeo! The hardest part of playing Bossa Nova is the right hand patterns. Here in Brazil we play these patterns as a "Slow Samba".
Thank you for this beginner... ish lesson using a nice, fun tune to practice BN rhythms. I particularly appreciate the posted chord diagrams.
Nice job Rick. You are so well rounded as a guitarist. Back in the late 1970's a coworker who was a guitarist born in Columbia convinced me to learn to play classical style with my fingers. Growing up in the 60's I was exposed to Bossa Nova music so I soon was finger picking what I heard on the radio. I never grow tired of this awesome genre of music.
This was so concise and well done, really appreciate it. Thank you!
Thank you, for explaining the chord clearly, and overall quality content.
I did'nt know this way of playing Ipanema. Sounds more relaxed, and with a more authentic "Carioca" feel. Thank you for this very useful tip and for the dedication and depht you put in your teachings.
Nick! Thanks a million. This is exactly what I was looking for. Many thanks from Tehran, Iran.
As a Brazilian, I really appreciate it! Your videos are the best! 🙂
Again, you present a very easy to follow tutorial of Jobim standard. Thanks!
You need more videos like this! Perfect guitar lesson format
I was learning this music by ear in my early teens stopping and starting my father's Lp Quiet nights and Brazilian Guitars ...guitars unlimited with greats like Laurindo Almeida, Tommy Tedesco, Jack Marshall and so on. Painfully rinse and repeat way to learn but now those songs are etched in my mind to eternity. Wish I had a tutorial like you in this platform back in the seventies!!
Excellent teacher ! Great explanation and easy to follow. Congrats! Please don’t change !
You read my mind man... I was actually thinking of learning this song and here you are with all those chords and fingerpiciking. Great video again.
FINALLY A VIDEO WITH THE RIGHT CHORDS
This video couldn't have come at a better time! Great simple explanation, thanks!
You have a video on literally anything i can think of i love you rick ❤️😁😁❤️
yer awesome rick,, you show a real concern for the fans and providing an intelligent, informative and charming venue for folks to explore their musical avenues.
one of my fave albums, stan getz was incredible.
I discovered Jobim’s catalogue around 15 years ago and became completely enraptured with his music. A particular favourite of mine is his soundtrack to the film ‘Black Orpheus’.
Hi Rick. Thank you very much. You are an excellent teacher. This is an excellent video and I am so appreciative.
You're a great teacher! Thank you for your help!
I love the fact that Rick is playing Brazilian music, however he misses the syncopation, which is very important to make the Bossa Nova groove.
Sim, ficou "bossa nova de gringo". Ele é um excelente músico, mas ficou faltando algo.
@@MarceloPereiraCafeSound Acho que não é tanto a sincopa, mais tem a ver com uma sensação de swing, de rítmica fluida, quem estudou como ele em escolas americanas, tem um sentido mais firme de ritmo, mais quadrado.
That's correct, but we all must learn from the beginning. Here he shows other guitarists how to move in a BASIC way into this particular song form as an example of the general form. Expression comes later.
@@krustttyyy dá para ver que o ritmo nao é sincopado pela trecho de partitura que ele dá em algum momento depois dos acordes -- aquela simplesmente nao é uma representaçao síncopa do ritmo.
@@starfishsystems That's right! And you need a drummer tapping his snare rim to REALLY set the mood. 🤣
Thanks, Rick. I was taught this tune as a teenager with "substitute " chords. Good to learn it properly.
An excellent music lesson video!!! It's given me a great base upon which to build my bossa nova guitar skills!!! I was surprised how easy the chord changes were in Part A of the song. Thanks!!!
Best part....after teaching the bridge cord progressing he says....”And that’s it!”
I had to chuckle a bit. I imaged some professionals saying “Wow...didn’t know it was that easy” to beginners saying “Oh crap...bar chords”.
Got to appreciate the camera work and editing.
Been watching Rick for some time..with this under 10 minute lesson ...had to subscribe.
This is going to be my practice song and warm up for this year 2020.
Also loved he went way back to the original chords...awesome.
wow great job man!! Someone showed me a different way of playing it but yours sounds much more correct. Thanks for breaking it down so well, looking forward to watching more of your videos
Enormously helpful! Thank so much.
I am a Brazilian learning to play Bossa with Rick Beato!!!!
Amazing Job! Kudos from Brazil!
Great song. Great lesson. Thanks Rick.
Fantastic! Just what I needed. Thank you 😃
It is a very good lesson. Thank you!
Tá ligado,Beato. Jobim é um dos maiores da música brasileira.
Stan Getz was the man! I used to walk home from school at lunch to listen to this record on our console stereo. 'Cat's Eye' (for FM) the whole bit. My mother took me down to the Golden Bear in our 56 Crown Vic to see Stan, Gary Burton, etc...driving down Coast Hwy past the giant grasshoppers pumping oil, and playing the AM radio....60s forever!
Rick, this is my fave video so far. I know you can do really complex film scores and etc., but my family we like to perform this tune locally. Thanks.
What great lesson Rick ! Even I can play that and improvise from there .
It would be helpful to include the melody which is the same in any version.The melody note for this version starts on Eb and since the melody starts on the 9th, Eb is the 9th of Db, therefore, this version is in Db and the first chord Ab6/9 is a rootless voicing of Db and the Bbm6 is a rootless voicing of Eb7. The chords need to be moved up a major 3rd to play these chords in the usual key of F. When playing in F the first chord to use is C6/9 and then Dm6 for G7...etc
This is the correct analysis
I was frowning and thinking the same thing. These are Jobim's genius subs in Db, seen that way you can appreciate the composition, with its subtle backdoor ii-Vs and layers of substitution.
However I understand that the Brazilian way to play this is in Db, the Real book way is in F. From that perspective these are the correct chords, just improperly analyzed.
Of course Jobim played in F as well on may recordings, including the most famous ones generally when playing with Americans. In Brazil its Db, more low key and rhythym oriented.
@John D. I'm so happy I saw your comment, I've been scratching my head over this all week
Absolutely right. Rick Beato should have explained it in the video.
Correct! My musical buddies & I perform this song, but move it up to an E maj root, to make use of open strings for alternate guitar voicings, sometimes inserting that low E. The bridge then modulates to an F root
This is so great, so helpful, thank you so, so much!
Thank you very very much Rick. How wonderful and understandable your task about the song, chords and rhythm. AWESOME. Really appreciated. Keep on explaining it in your great style. Stay healthy. BIG HUGE HUGS. GREETINGS from PAMPLONA. Peter (a BOSSA NOVA admirer)
Fabulous, Rick! Your expert strumming made Astrud's "dainty crooning" pop right out of my cerebral cortex. Good magic, buddy!
Nice easy clear lesson for us newbies ......thank you......
That was great, really clear explanation. Thanks.
Thx for the lesson!! Gonna try it out! 🎸
Wow this was a bit easier than I thought.. I watched vid first and was confused then I played it and other than major 6 shape it wasn't too bad.
Now it's just getting the chord transitions smooth.
Awesome tutorial
It is soo fun that i was actuallywatching one of your videos (after watching several hours of you) and said to myself :" let me go check something different" , searched for bossa nova music theory ane you came up hahahaha Beato, you are officially THE music master here in youtube. Thank you man, haven't watched the video but im sure it would be as good as always.
This is a gem of a vid Rick...Thank you so much xx
Excellent lesson
Thanks Rick. Great lesson.
Excellent as always. Thanks.
good clear tutorial - cheers Rick!
Magnifico Beato !!
1番シンプルでわかりやすかったです。
Great lesson Rick! I have been wanting to see the actual chords to this song by Mr. Jobim. Pretty much everyone plays this in F. I think its sounds better in A flat. Awesome lesson Rick as usual!!!
I'm brazilian... and I can tell... this is so hard to play and coordinate lol. tom jobim, joão gilberto etc are the best for this... For sure, one day I'll learn this amazing, cozy and refined rhythm.... thanks for the lesson...
...nice work , great lesson ...great tune ....thx RB
Great work, Rick. I'd love to hear a program on the genius of Jobim. I think he is not appreciated by the general public in the US.
Determined to learn this. TY!!!
Hey Rick, first chord is actually Db6 with Ab bass, sec is really Eb9 with Bb bass. Then Ebm9 etc. (just listen !) And there are other chord rhythms that SWING
And thanks for your efforts, Rick the Pick
Yes! now it makes sense! Down two whole tones from F.
the thing is that Db6/9 without root = Ab6/9 without 3rd (exactly same notes)
but yes, more correct chords are Db6/9 Eb9 Ebm9 D9 Db6/9, each with no root and its 5th as bass
hey Rick… big thanks. great lesson.
Am looooooving it, Rick!
Great Great job straight to the point. Thanks!!
Hi Rick. I noticed someone commented about the groove of the bossa nova patterns and to check out a video by Romero Lubambo - Simple Secrets of Bossa Nova Guitar. I watched it and the pattern he demonstrates is exactly what you play as the more complex pattern at the end. I checked out the composer Antonio Carlos Jobim playing Girl From Ipanema and it's very similar to your patterns also. I love the simple beauty of the guitar chord voicings and patterns you play here. It's perfectly Brazilian.
Thank you so much!! Great tutorial!
What a difference with the "non-simplified" original! Thank you, Rick...
love u man, thanks for sharing ur experience
Rick you're a legend!
I love it. You're amazing Rick :)
One day , at dawn , afterwards a productive musician night (drinking and playing) Tom Jobim and his partner Vinicius de Moraes were seeing , by the windown , people working out on the beach, one look each other and promised they will never do that ahahah. Many say this is a true story. I am from Brazil and always watch your videos Rick thanks for them ,also ,for this teaching.
I love this channel and have mad respect for Rick Beato. I’m in awe of the way he’s able to theorize while simplifying! However what really stands out in this video to me is how Rick’s performance sounds quantize (a trait of modern music he has confessed he dislikes), maybe on purpose? Bossa only has a pattern for people who need to dissect it, for those who “get it” there’s no pattern... there’s only feel. Same thing happens with Samba - I’m sure many other styles outside my purview. Fascinating.
That was absolutely fantastic! There are so many lessons on this song but you really nailed it. I always feel it's worth it to work a bit harder and be more accurate in the original. Thanks so much man! P.S. Nice axe!
Hi Rick!! I'm Rafa Nascimento, i play Choro here in Brazil, congratulations for your job!!
Thanks, Rick. You're the Boss!
So gorgeous! Rick, thank you very much! :-)
Well done, Rick! Greetings from Brazil.
Right on Rick!
Muito obrigado Rick!
This is great!
Thanks Rico !! Awesome.
Fantastic tutorial rick
The girl from... yep I had a feeling from those chords you would go into that. Nice one, great lesson.
