With the LP Chega de Saudade, released in 1959, Gilberto consolidated the bossa nova as a new style of playing samba. Considered the landmark of the birth of bossa nova, it also featured Gilberto's innovative way of singing samba, which was inspired by Dorival Caymmi.
In 1959, João Gilberto's bossa album was released, containing the tracks "Chega de Saudade" and "Bim Bom". By accompanying Cardoso's voice, Gilberto innovated in the way of pacing the rhythm, accentuating the weak times, in order to carry out a synthesis of the beat of samba to guitar. It was the first time that the Bahian musician presented the beat of his guitar that would become characteristic of the style. Its first appearance was on the album Canção do Amor Demais, in which the singer Elizeth Cardoso recorded two compositions by the duo Antônio Carlos Jobim and Vinicius de Moraes, "Outra Vez" and " Chega de Saudade", which were accompanied by João Gilberto's guitar. The style emerged at the time when samba-canção was the dominant rhythm in the Brazilian music scene. The bossa nova wave came to renew samba and to contribute to the modernization of Brazilian music, being a watershed. In 1959, the soundtrack to the film Black Orpheus (Orpheu Negro) was released, which included the future jazz standard Manhã de Carnaval, "The Morning of the Carnival". According to the author Walter Garcia, the synthesis performed by Gilberto's guitar was a reduction of the " batucada" of samba, a stylization produced from one of the percussion instruments: the thumb stylized a surdo the index, middle and ring fingers phrased like a tamborim. According to musicologist Gilberto Mendes, the bossa nova was one of the "three rhythmic phases of samba", in which the "bossa beat" had been extracted by João Gilberto from the traditional samba. One of the major innovations of bossa nova was the way to synthesize the rhythm of samba on the classical guitar. In line with this thesis, musicians such as Baden Powell, Roberto Menescal, and Ronaldo Bôscoli also claim that this beat is related to the tamborim of the samba school. The bossa nova wave became popular around the world and it helped to renew samba and to contribute to the modernization of Brazilian music.Īccording to Brazilian journalist Ruy Castro, the bossa beat – which was created by the drummer Milton Banana – was "an extreme simplification of the beat of the samba school", as if all instruments had been removed and only the tamborim had been preserved. The "bossa nova beat" is characteristic of a samba style and not of an autonomous genre. It is mainly characterized by a "different beat" that altered the harmonies with the introduction of unconventional chords and an innovative syncopation of traditional samba from a single rhythmic division.
