Bossa Nova
Born in the 1950s, Bossa Nova won over the world 60 years ago with compositions like "Chega de Saudade" and "Garota de Ipanema". The name of the beach has been sung by renowned voices, from composers Vinícius de Moraes and Tom Jobim to the legendary Frank Sinatra.
A movement associated with Brazil's urban growth - driven by the developmental phase of Juscelino Kubitschek's presidency (1955-1960) - Bossa Nova, for many critics, began when the Bahian guitarist João Gilberto released a simple compact in August 1958, containing the songs "Chega de Saudade", by Tom Jobim and Vinicius de Moraes, and "Bim Bom", by the singer himself.
The Bossa Nova movement lasted little more than a decade and ended in 1966. However, its artistic and cultural value was considered by the new style that was emerging in Brazil, the MPB, Brazilian Popular Music. It is important to emphasize that the end of the movement did not mean the end of the musical creation of Bossa Nova, since many composers and musicians currently seek to unite melodic tones and Brazilian samba, such as Roberto Menescal, Carlos Lyra, Wanda Sá, Joyce Moreno.
