Hi there..who enjoys it?

I love it's simplicity and soothing beautiful charms since little girl growing up around it all. Experiencing it notes is just like eating chocolate on top of a cotton candy cloud...but as I said its effects arrived in my senses when I was very young indeed.

Share your own experiences with it and even a few songs if you desire to.

Obrigada/thanks

"Bossa nova is most commonly performed on the nylon-string classica; guitar, played with the fingers rather than with a pick. Its purest form could be considered unaccompanied guitar with vocals, as exemplified by João Gilberto. Even in larger jazz-like arrangements for groups, there is almost always a guitar that plays the underlying rhythm. Gilberto basically took one of the several rhythmic layers from a samba ensemble (specifically, the tamborim) and applied it to the picking hand.}..checkwikipedia for more into..

Hey Ulu...:wave:

Oh yeh!..thanks for my culture compliments..I enjoy yours also..particularly the French mix side of it.


YouTube - antonio carlos jobim - wave unknown fantastic recording

I enjoy Gal Costa singing wave also..nice bossa voice and violao is always good! Too much piano and orchestration on it's not my preference thou..

YouTube - Elis Regina - Wave

Elis above..another style and interpretation of it..


I prefer my bossa (and jazz in general also) to remain simple, not busy.
