== == The main contenders for the creation of the Bossanova are Antonio Carlos Jobim and Jaoa Gilberto (the first Bossanova record is possibly their soudtrack for the movie 'Black Orpheus'). Other important contributors are Carlos Lyra, Roberto Meneschal, Vinicius De Moraes and Roberto Boscol. Some say that the Bossanova was born in the Copacabana apartment of singer, Nara Leao, where many of these musicians would gather to play. Bossanova was popularised outside of Brazil with the release of the Stan Getz and Joao Gilberto album 'Getz/gilberto' which featured the wildly popular 'Girl from Ipanema' sung by Joao's wife Astrid.
