Book and CD.  Pieces are played first by the whole group (melody, guitar accompaniment, bass, and drums), then without the melody, and then without the guitar accompaniment.  Bossa Nova originated in Rio de Janeiro during the 1950s.  It emerged from the blend between traditional samba rhythms and the complex jazz harmonies of that period.  Though numerous musicians contributed to its “gestation”, the principal founders were the pianist-composer Antonio Carlos Jobim and the singer-guitarist Jocio Gilberto.
