João Gilberto (born João Gilberto Prado Pereira de Oliveira on June 10, 1931 in the town of Juazeiro, Bahia) is a Brazilian musician and considered one of the co-creators, with Tom Jobim, of bossa nova.//A self-taught guitarist and singer, Gilberto moved to Rio de Janeiro in 1950 and had a stint of moderate success singing with the chorus group Garotos da Lua (The Boys of the Moon). However, after being kicked out of the band for his lack of discipline, he spent the next several years of his life in a marginal existence, imposing on friends, using marijuana, but above all, obsessed with creating a new way to express himself on the guitar. His efforts eventually came to fruition, and upon meeting Antonio Carlos Jobim — a classically-trained pianist and composer who was influenced by the contemporary North American popular and jazz music of the time — and a group of middle-class university students and musicians, they launched the bossa nova movement.Bossa nova was a distillation of the percussive syncopated samba rhythm into a simplified form which could be performed on a single unaccompanied guitar, and João Gilberto is credited with single-handedly inventing this technique. He sang in a very low volume with the syllables of the lyrics put alternatively in advance or delayed from the instrumental base, and trained intensively to eliminate almost all noise from respiration and other imperfections.This new style created a sensation in Gilberto's performances at private jam sessions and informal collegiate concerts. He played the guitar in Elizete Cardoso's album Canção do Amor Demais in 1958, featuring compositions by Jobim and his lyrical partner Vinicius de Moraes. Shortly after this recording, Gilberto made his own debut LP, Chega de Saudade. The title track (listen to excerpt ), a Jobim composition which was also featured on the Cardoso album, was a domestic hit single, and launched Gilberto's career and consequently the entire bossa nova movement. Besides a number of Jobim compositions, the album featured older sambas and popular songs from the 1930s, but all performed in the distinctive bossa nova style. This album was followed by two more in 1960 and 1961, by which time he featured new songs by a younger generation of performer/composers such as Carlos Lyra and Roberto Menescal
