celebrated this year, you know, the fiftieth anniversary of bossa nova, whose birth dates back to August '58, when he accompanied Joao Gilberto with his guitar elizabeth cardoso in the first recording of "Chega de saudade", written by Tom Jobim and Vinicius de Moraes.
in New York began the festivities with a concert by Gilberto at Carnegie Hall. Republic on a quick review of yesterday, that also contained this passage about the origins of bossa: "(...) a style that marked the birth of a new musical rhythm able to fuse jazz with samba emphasizing the link between voice and guitar through the use of microphone make the sound more intimate, rather than amplify it.
