Chord & FretMpb — Guitar
The acoustic guitar sits at the very heart of Brazilian music: bossa nova was practically invented on it, and it carries samba, choro and MPB with equal ease. MPB is the big umbrella of Brazilian song, blending samba roots with refined harmony and storytelling lyrics. Here you'll explore the ii-V-I — in other words, the chord sequence that builds tension and resolves it like a complete sentence — and the IV to iv, the slide from a major chord to its minor twin that brings a bittersweet sigh.
