Hello,

Please, what is the chord sequence played by Justin at the beginning of the video ?

Cheers,

John.

I really enjoy practicing the Bossa Nova Rhythm and am doing fairly well with
chords, that Justin teaches as basic jazz chords.
I have a problem with the alternating bass line pattern as it works with none of the basic chords
Justin taught in the Basic Jazz Chord lesson.
When I alternate a 6th string maj7 chord as taught by Justin the 5th string is muted
Same with alternating a 5th string maj7 chord - now the 6th string is muted.
Is there a specific lesson for which chords to use when trying the alternating bass bossa nova rhythm pattern?
I am trying to figure the chords out that Justin uses in the Bossa lesson when alternating, but cannot really see what he does with his left hand. i hear him saying it is a F minor 9 chord, but that chord is not in the
Basic Jazz Chord lesson.
Am I missing something?
