The most popular off-spring of Samba was the Bossa Nova, rhythms with sophisticated harmonies and quiet, understandable melodies. The paternity is granted to Antonio Carlos Jobim (Tom Jobim) and Joao Gilberto, and the birth was at the beginning of the 50's, when Brazil initiated a cultural and economic revolution which was worth a new name: The New Wave (Bossa Nova).
