From the high-octane energy of Carnaval and mysterious intensity of the Amazon to the glorious weather and exciting nightlife, Brazil serves up all essential ingredients for an awesome experience. Music is key to the culture here- jazz, rap and rock and roll unite with Amerindian, Portuguese and African rhythms to create a distinctly Brazilian beat. Brazil's diverse musical heritage includes the smooth 1960s sounds of bossa nova - demonstrated most famously by the Astrud Gilberto rendition of the Girl from Ipanema and originally written by the brilliant Brazilian poet and lyricist, Vinicius de Moraes. The electric, African-inspired sounds of the samba also hail from Brazil, as does the Lambada - as fast-paced and energetic dance style that made Caribbean rhythms popular across the globe in the 1980s.
