He's so smooth with his changes. No fret noise... No delay in between chords... I hope this guys making some $$$ off his playing. He's obviously put in the work
You are a fukn prick .Therapy , you total quasi grope that probably tries to liberate your starchy prossionism by making some kind of dominant statements about people who were always and already free before your square arse got hold of them . By A court order or something. Fuck off ! Therapist , can you afford to replace the battery in the thing you use to tickle yourself.
Simply spectacular!!! The chord voicings and the chord substitutions on Wave were just spectacular--- no nonsense to be found here!! Just a fabulous rendition of Jobim's classic composition. Effortlessly executed with a flawless performance!!! Man, it just can't get any better than this!!!. What a delight to the ear to hear this beautiful tune with a FRESH interpretation that makes you sit up and listen!!! His use of chord substitutions and flowing passing chords make so much sense musically, that I feel he has actually "IMPROVED" on the original.--- not an easy thing to do WHEN we are talking about the MASTER composer Antonio Carlos Jobim !!. His melodies are not only original , but, "Timless!!". Walter, YOU have. Done what few guitarists rarely do, and that is to exhibit "AWE" in your interpretation and clean playing of these classic tunes!. You are an "INSPIRATION" to all guitar players and non-guitar players alike!!. You have SHOWN WHAT it REALLY takes to be an "ACCOMPLISHED" musician on your instrument!. Again, there is "NO NONSENSE to be found here!! ---- just "PHENOMENAL" artistry and "FLAWLESS" PLAYING!!".
These are my favorite bossa nova songs and you put them together in such a special, delicate arrangement. Just... wow. Thank you for taking your time to do this. Simply awesome
It was so fun listening to this the first time. Im in love with the bossa sound and now every note of the originals by heart. Very refreshing and it surprised me in a very good way
Just lovely , the way You played it , took me back to a dream I had as a kid back in the 60,s . Apr 7, 2019 was my grand daughters tenth birthday . She loved the sound and the way you played . Thanx for the up load .
The most beautiful version of WAVE I have ever heard. Bet its composer A.C. Jobim would agree. Just as an aside: You have to love a country so musical it names its largest airport after its greatest composer -- the man I call "the Cole Porter of South America." Yes, would love to fly down to "Antonio Carlos Jobim International Airport" in Rio. I have to stick to flight simulator, where it is quite simply my favorite destination. The perfect turquoise of the huge bay between the airports and . . . well you know all about that, Walter. I ran out of superlatives a moment ago in describing your incredible rendition of my favorite Gershwin tune, THEY CAN'T TAKE THAT AWAY FROM ME. Dare I say, this Jobim medley is even more amazing. I've seen Tommy Emmanuel and Doyle Dykes live, but -- shhh, don't tell them -- you are my all-time favorite finger style guitarist. No one plays as beautifully while making it look so easy! -- Mark B of the frozen North
Chet told the story of being on a Caribbean cruise ship, and picking up a battered steel-string acoustic guitar and playing a little on it. A passerby volunteered "You're no Chet Atkins, but you're (pretty) good!"
I am a big fan of this genre of music. You picked the two pieces that I love the most and played them so smoothly. I am taking out my guitar right now to try to emulate this performance. Bravo!!!!
I've seen this video many times, Walter, my hat off to you. The beauty of your playing is incredibly, such a joy to hear such a soulful and skillful musician. God bless you my friend!
Laurel, você escolheu uma boa música onde tu mostra a destreza de como tocar um violão de 6 cordas com maestria e beleza. Fica um abraço e minha admiração, Parabéns!
I always love your play style. Where you play the rhythm and the melody, it is so relaxing and sound really beautiful. Keep doing covers like this Mr. Walter!
After listening to this multiple times and doing several comparisons to your other videos I have recognized a very substantial sound quality upgrade since you changed interfaces. Very impressive even coming through TH-cam! I realize the poly bass makes a difference but it seems the clarity is just unmistakable.
Wow! One of my favorite arrangements of these two instantly! Please, please consider making the sheet music available, I will surely support right away. Great work!
The combination of the full chords, bass lines and melodies makes such a big, beautiful sound. AMAZING! You inspired me to try and play this style Walter! THANK YOU!
Those are longest fingers I've ever seen. I play the song differently , using a different chord voicing's. His sounds the best, I am going to have to struggle hard to stretch my fingers like that and I will probably fail to be able to. Walter sounds so good, I loved that harmonic wave at the end and the smile.
Walter vc e mesmo demais!!! Sua sutileza em seus toques delicado, arranjos personalizados magistral.... realmente admirável.... toco algumas di seu repertório com seu arranjo, porém sem a magia do toque sutil q vc tem. Parabéns! Sou seu seguidor!
Brilliant as always. Walter has great talent, which has been finessed through hard work. To aspiring guitarists, the serious study of Classical guitar and Jazz harmony will give you a solid foundation. Also, show your enthusiasm by purchasing Walter's arrangements, as listed. God bless Walter and the Guitar fraternity.
Oh My! That’s it..........I’m done practicing anymore since I’ll never get this good! Walter, there are some excellent guitarists on YT but, you sir, are the absolute finest player I’ve ever seen I’d heard. Right up there with the skills of Ted Greene.
Oh wow, this must be what the value of clean playing is. I never notice it in other players because it's probably never there. But when you hear it like with this, this is a whole new experience. Mr. Rodrigues you have set the bar pretty high Sir.
This is freshly made from the oven. Soothing masterpiece from classical Jazz standard songs. Love it Walter, you always brighten up my day when listening to your music. If I may request, please Cover these below songs (I know it would be great) : a. After the love has gone b. Signed, Sealed, Delivered I'm Yours & Superstition by Stevie Wonder c. Love never Felt so good - Michael Jackson d. Spain and Armando Rhumba - Chick Corea
I started to learn guitar by myself hoping one day I could play bossanova. This would be the first song I wanna practice when I could. Just bought the music sheet! Thank you so much!!
Incredible skill and those insane chord changes during Girl .. WOW, I couldn't help but clap loud at the end of the video. Thank you for sharing your gift Walter!! Take care
This is one of my favorite guitar instrumentals of all time, I’ve spent hours learning it, thank you for blessing us with such fantastic compositions Walter! If someone knows, I’m dying to figure out what guitar he is using?
As someone who's been nothing more than a metal and punk guitarist seeing your videos has inspired me to broaden my repertoire and get my hands on a classical nylon string guitar and learn some chords finally, good stuff dude 👌🏻👌🏻
He's so smooth with his changes. No fret noise... No delay in between chords... I hope this guys making some $$$ off his playing. He's obviously put in the work
Exactly! Almost late but never late!
@@isdochere That's the sign...
00:48 frevo rasgado - egberto gismonti, anyone else get the reference? toca muito bixo, parabéns
And don't forget his sweet tone.
I’m learning the song and it is mind blowing how clean he plays it
Like I’m truly in awe
I am a music therapist and have been letting my residents listen to your music. They are in heaven!!!
That’s awesome! Thanks for sharing 🙏🏻🥰
I took “they are in heaven” the wrong way for a sec there.

Fantastic take on classics! Love your gentle touch, Walter!

Watchand Knock Naudo is a fantastic player 👍🏻

What a treat to see pop up in my TH-cam feed
Walter: your touch, taste, technique, ideas and execution are unsurpassed. A model for what solo guitar can be!
Essa é do meu Brasil...🇧🇷
Muito bom..demais
Fantastic!! It's my birthday today. This is the first time I hear you play. Feels like great birthday presence.
yep, nice musical present ! happy birthday for all the years to come bro' !
these two are my favorite piece of jobim of all time, thank you walter for bringing this classics back🙏🏻
the trouble seeing someone of this caliber i just want to give up he is amazing
What a great way to wake up! God bless you Walter
Walter, you are not only an outstanding musician and composition arranger, but you are one of the 'cleanest' players, Ever
I "unliked" this just so I could "like" it again...amazing
Lol. That's funny. Love it. I so get it. He IS amazing!

These are my favorite bossa nova songs and you put them together in such a special, delicate arrangement. Just... wow. Thank you for taking your time to do this. Simply awesome
There's magic in that left hand! So many different shapes and difficult stretches that come and go so quickly.
Certain one of the best songs from Jobim .. Good job and thanks for supporting the real brazilian music ...
do you know?? you are self sufficient enough to play the solo guitar for any big screen film b.g.m... hats off...
It was so fun listening to this the first time. Im in love with the bossa sound and now every note of the originals by heart. Very refreshing and it surprised me in a very good way
Just lovely , the way You played it ,
took me back to a dream I had as a kid back in the 60,s .
Apr 7, 2019 was my grand daughters tenth birthday .
She loved the sound and the way you played .
Thanx for the up load .
Guy sounds like a freaking full jazz combo with just one instrument!
I created a play list channel on my phone with his videos.
Sounds like a bass guitar was added. Watch his fingers and see what you think.
I feel like there is a slight delay in the video but isnt his right thumb playing the bass line?
Grant Shuster it is, I can confirm cause I’m learning it. It’s traditional bossa nova style and boy does it sound good
Love this guy. THIS IS WHAT A GOOD GUITAR PLAYER SOUNDS LIKE.
Oh goddd why all of your guitar cover r relaxing 😭😭😭 sounds so soft
I love his style of playing. A beautiful combination of popular songs with classical style.
Вальтер дорогой спасибо за прекрасное исполнение. Слушаю много раз и хочется ещё . Ты самый лучший гитарист!
Шикарно играет, подлец!
Волжое спасибо вам

I am a big fan of this genre of music. You picked the two pieces that I love the most and played them so smoothly. I am taking out my guitar right now to try to emulate this performance. Bravo!!!!
Wonderful ideas behind the arrangement Walter and it’s another 5 star performance!
most naturally talented Guitarist I have ever heard
Oh man! Brings back days of playing in the quartets. I was playing the bass lines in my head along with you. Walter. Great choice of songs. Thanks!
That reach with the little finger. Fascinating.
I've seen this video many times, Walter, my hat off to you. The beauty of your playing is incredibly, such a joy to hear such a soulful and skillful musician. God bless you my friend!
Thank you so much ❤️
Thank you Walter for sharing your mastery of the guitar with us. Your short rendition of Wave was excellent!
Wonderful arrangements of two great songs. How good to be able to hear and see you play this. God bless. Greetings from Germany
The changes on this is just fabulous! Knocks me out!
Someone dislike is jealous...shame of people who dislike this great guitarist
Laurel, você escolheu uma boa música onde tu mostra a destreza de como tocar um violão de 6 cordas com maestria e beleza. Fica um abraço e minha admiração, Parabéns!
AHHH beautiful exotic harmonies! Rekindled my love for bossa harmony

Deve ser uma das melhores interpretações que já vi...
The smoothness had me subscribing very fast! Great technique and tasteful playing!
Joe Pass is smiling down on you my friend, excellent interpretation and performance!

Watching you make those chord stretches with ease and the choice of voiceings is nothing short of amazing .
by the way that polyBass system sounds huge and everything made right here, works great for guitar, well balanced
How can I learn more about this?!

Phenomenal playing! Keep up the great work Walter.
OMG, where has this sound been all my life. Just amazing!
As always, astonishing music
I am constantly amazed at the stunning arrangements that you create, and the musicality of your performance each and every time!
I'd love to hear you play 'Desifinado'? 💕
I would definitely love to hear that, too.
+1!
DesAfinado
the correct is "desafinado"
I really love you playing, so crystal clear and warm, with sophisticated harmonic arrangements, it's pure grace and a soothing experience!
Wow, blew me away! What a feel for the music..bravo!

These are not classical Jazz standard songs...these are brazilian Bossa Nova...

Wonderful! Wonderful! An example to follow
Great work
Absolutely terrific. Always looking forward to your next video.
Talent, hard work plus the perfect fingers = perfection 👏
Incredibly beautiful as always Walter. I'd love for a Jazz book by you to learn your stylings.
Sire Walter’s Hymn arrangements book by Hal Leonard is awesome! I have it and it’s absolutely incredible!

Your playing is so unbelievably clean! (Makes me lonely for all the LOUD fret noise I'm used to hearing when I play.)
Очень классно! Молодец! 👍
Are you stressed out and harried? Don't worry Doctor Smooth is treating patients. I love your playing Walter, Bravo.
This is one of my favorite guitar instrumentals of all time, I’ve spent hours learning it, thank you for blessing us with such fantastic compositions Walter! If someone knows, I’m dying to figure out what guitar he is using?

Awesome! Thanks so much.
Tem um baixo tocando junto ou é algum efeito pra soar mais grave? Parabéns pela belíssima interpretação!
Obrigado! O baixo nas cordas E e A são produzidos por uma placa instalada no Godin chamada PolyBass.
wooow ,another master piece..
Great playing!
are you using a octave pedal or lower tuning of some sort?
Thanks! That's a circuit board installed on my guitar called "Polybass" it adds an octave lower to the A and E strings.
Smooth as silk !
So under control but musical in the same time.
Hat down, also from all your other arrangements.
👏👏👏👏👏
