Bossa Nova is a style of Brazilian music that combines elements of samba and jazz. It originated in the late 1950s and early 1960s in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. It is characterized by its laid-back, relaxed rhythms and melodies, as well as its use of syncopation and improvisation. Bossa Nova is often associated with the beach and is often used in films and television shows to evoke a sense of relaxation and leisure.
