The Bossa Nova celebrates its 50th anniversary! Singer-songwriter Marcos Valle and singer Wanda Sá (Brasil 65) pay tribute to the Brazilian dance music to which they both contributed so much. Valle has written songs for Sergio Mendes, Bebel Gilberto and Dizzy Gillespie and is considered a follower of Antonio Carlos Jobim, the inventor of bossa. In the dance scene Valle’s records are eagerly sampled by DJs and artists like Jazzanova, 4hero and Gotan Project.
