To those who ask "what is bossa nova" or why to mix Italian songs with Bossa Nova musical style, the short answer lies in...coffee...! In fact, think about the best Italian espresso coffee: it comes from Brazilian coffee beans, while it's turned into the tasty drink with an Italian-made tool called "moka pot".
The magical mixture of these two elements (the ingredients and the process of preparing it) are like Italian music and Brazilian tunes mixed together. This is what makes Italian Bossa Nova a unique multi-cultural mixture.
