Bossa Nova is the Brazilian music style that was born in Rio de Janeiro, out of the melodies by Joao Gilberto, Antonio Carlos Jobim and Vinicius de Moraes.In 1969, Gilberto's new musical style reached a worldwide audience with the release of "Girl from Ipanema," one of the greatest hits of bossa nova. Different from samba, a popular music style in Brazil, bossa nova is more upscale and often speaks of love, the beach and beautiful women. It is worldwide spread and it's common to be heard in hip lounges and bars throughout the world.
The expression Bossa Nova does not really have a translation - Nova means new and Bossa means trend - but to do something with Bossa is to do it with a special flair... It is definitely an easy going and elegant music style that works really well with a romantic setting... Love is in the air...
Be good and be healthy.
