Production of the CD Bossa de Novo

Compositions by Renato Velasco and Gérard Charbit - 2024

Featuring 6 Brazilian and French singers.





Born in the early 1960s in Rio, thanks to talented musicians and writers like Tom Jobim, Joao Gilberto, and Vinicius de Moraes, bossa nova quickly became a rhythm and sound that traveled the world, carried by songs like "The Girl from Ipanema" and "Desafinado." Sixty years later, it seemed to us that it was time for this music, synonymous with grace, lightness, joy, and intertwined melancholy, to return to the forefront.


Bossa de novo takes up all the codes and themes of the original bossa nova thanks to the composer Renato Velasco and reactivates them today with the collaboration of seasoned musicians and young Franco-Brazilian singers.

Because bossa nova is from Rio like the waltz is from Vienna, let's return to the gentle beaches of Copacabana or Ipanema, to rediscover the charm and joy of the Cariocas.


Bossa de novo is available on all listening and streaming platforms


Born in the decade of 1960, no rio, by the start of musicians and talented authors like Tom Jobim, João Gilberto or Vinicius de Moraes, a new boss quickly turned into a song, and so it took a turn in the world like songs “Garota de Ipanema” or “desafinado”.

Sessenta anos depois, parece-nos que chegou a hora desta music, mistura de grace, leveza, alegria e melancholia voltasse à frente da cena.

Bossa de novo returns all the codes and themes of the original bossa nova thanks to the composer Renato Velasco and Gerard Charbit and its reativa with a collaboration of experienced musicians and young French-Brazilian singers.

A Bossa nova é in Rio like a waltz in Viena, we will go to the sweetness of the beaches of Copacabana or Ipanema, to meet or enchant and enjoy the joy of joy.

Bossa de novo is available on all streaming and streaming platforms.
