Brazilian Rhtyhm Workshop with Samuel Martinelli

On this episode I talk about the concept of learning how to sing before you play your instrument, and how you can use that to learn the samba groove better. The album of the week is the masterpiece by Tom Jobim, Passarim (little bird), one of his best works.

On this episode I introduce the podcast and talk about the 1st video lesson, "The Three Essential Elements of the Samba Groove", where I talk about the rhytmic foundation elements of that style. 

The first album of the week is by the king of Brazilian jazz, Claudio Roditi, "Samba Manhattan Style".
