Bossa Nova

Bossa Nova is the cool, vocal jazz ensemble at NSU. Each semester the ensemble creates and performs programs showcasing its singers while celebrating the cultural scene in South Florida. Bossa Nova’s musicians regularly perform music ranging from The Girl from Ipanema to Miami Sound Machine’s Turn the Beat Around. Audiences may also hear the Holst In the Bleak Midwinter and “Fats” Waller’s Handful of Keys. The unique aural texture and repertoire of Bossa Nova is as diverse as the community in which we live, full of sunshine and endless new beats.

Auditions for Bossa Nova

Auditions for Bossa Nova are held each semester and are open to all members of the NSU community. For more information, please contact Bill J. Adams, D.M.A., at wadams@nsu.nova.edu.
