Bossa Nova Guitar

Much revered in the US and around the world and probably the most exported Brazilian musical genre to the world, bossa nova was characterized in its origin mainly by the unique rhythmic/harmonic treat

ment initially adopted by João Gilberto to the guitar. This course is ideal for those who want to know how to apply the rhythmic and harmonic ideas of bossa nova in an authentic way based on tradition. This happens through understanding and applying syncopation in the right hand with its specific attacks/accents and the use of harmonic tensions derived from jazz in the left hand in dialogue and complement with the original thematic material.
