Rio has a special place in music history. When a group of students, artists and musicians came together in the late 1950s on the tropical beaches of Rio, a new sound was born. Combining soft samba with traditional Brazilian rhythms and American jazz, bossa nova is made for slow days.
Close your eyes and you’ll be transported to Ipanema with our bossa nova playlist.
