John Patitucci (johnpatituccibass.com) plays along to some bossa nova. Get FREE sample lessons with John Patitucci: artistworks.com/freelessons
In this lesson, John Patitucci plays Bassa Nova bass lines at a medium speed. Bassa Nova is primarily a half note rhythm with a few dotted eighth note rhythms. So, when you play this, remember that and settle into the rhythm of the drums, anchoring the music in. Relax! You're a bassist! Watch and learn, see how John Patitucci is sinking into the rhythm of the backing track, so relaxed and allowing the audience to do the same.
Doesn't hearing and watching John play make you want to get out your own bass and play? Get playing now and sign up to learn from John himself on ArtistWorks Online Bass School with John Patitucci. There are hundreds of HD lessons that carefully breakdown fundamental elements, like bossa nova bass lines. If you have any questions, you can send in a video to John and he will reply to you with a video answering your question or with any advice he can offer.

I have the previlage to see John Pattitucci played with Chick Cores in LA. Thank you professor Pattitucci,for teaching us.

[@MingusDynastyy]

I have such a hard time playing less on bossa rhythms. The rhythm and melodies to me are asking for much more.

[@cristicini]

[@adrian5b]

Patitucci looks like Mark Ruffalo.

[@dondamian363]

More like Saul Goodman !!!

[@JKthebassplayer]

literally thinking the same!

[@filipedecastro4718]

To learn Brazilian rythms Patittuci is not your Guy, have to listen Luizao Maia, Jorge Helder and Arthur Maia

[@greymamassamamassa4639]

this is an american kind of bossa nova. John Patitucci Is a great bass player but the real thing Is a bit different. First of all bossa nova must be count in two and the accents are differents... Listen to Tiaò Neto, Luizaò Maia and Sizaò Machado

[@chacacontra]

Yes, the first note of the bar should be short, as the zurdo drum play
