Fact of the Day More Information During its rise in the United States, jazz eventually made its way down to Brazil. This influence and the traditional samba music together paved the way for bossa nova or the new way [source]. The musical genre gained world acclaim with the score to the film Orfeu Negro and the far reaching "Girl from Ipanema" in the mid 1960s.
