Here he plays Blue Bossa simply as a part of the reportoire
here he is shown working out an arrangement on guitar,
explaining how to work on outlining the changes with arpeggios
and talking about improvising on that tune
Unfortunately the auto-translate from auto-generated Portuguese subtitles does not work very well, but a lot can be learned from context I think. Or try the “show transcript” function (click on the three buttons on the right below the video on YT) and copy into DeepL which is sometimes better.
I think that’s an interesting channel and will dig deeper into it.
EDIT: Especially the second one where he is filmed live (including breaking a string) working out an arrangement for his next CD is a goldmine.Last edited by Bop Head; 09-06-2022 at 03:58 PM.

There are definitely some tunes - like the whole Jobim songbook for starters - where I think you need to try and get as close to a Brazilian feel as you can (if not adapting the material); the Bossa police can legitimately come after you if you play, for example, the bass note on beat 2 higher in pitch that the one on beat 1, or whatever. Blue Bossa is not one of these tunes.
