NOT a dance!

sure, you can dance quite good to it,the creation of the dance steps goes back to the trend of the dance movement in the 60s but not in connection with the invention. the steps are very plain and simple, not as types other brazilian dances. BN is listen when you sit chill.

Brazilians says that it is the high flowering of their culture. The Bossa Nova was founded in the late fifties at the copacabana in Rio. The first experimental artform, a mix of jazz and samba, created by the father of Bossa Antônio Carlos Jobim. João Gilberto (der Mann, der nicht gefunden werden will) and João Donato were also very influential. A numerous traditionally brazilian instruments are accompanying like agogo, maracas, rattles and the cuica, also known as the monkey drum ... more publicity was reached through a film name black orpheus. the most famous songs are possibly the girl from ipanema (Garota de Ipanema) and one note samba (Samba De Uma Nota So) wich were often covered.

The first bossa nova record released is Chega de saudade. Mostly the songs are arranged with drums, play the brazilian clave, piano or organ, guitar, base and brass or flute. Often a women choir was also provided. The lyrics belongs to sad moods with topics of love and other difficult problematics, where the melody is happily and groovy. It is a mirror of deep feelings of the brazilian soul. Astrud Gilberto should be named, first foreigner winning a grammy. BTW BN is very popular in japan.

documentary:

For drummers: there is a trick getting the groove quickly on cross stick: play sidestick once than play 2 times hihat, repeat - on the 3rd tact play sidestick than 3 times hit hat - thats it, just shifted. It is like a small a paradiddle effect. thats for 2/4. after handling it you can come to 8th hihat. Kick can played at 1, 2+, 3 and 4+ like a heartbeat. video , most drummers begin with kick but it is not a must! That is the basics, but it can become more variational.
