MPB (Música Popular Brasileira):
Not just one style or genre, MPB—or Música Popular Brasileira—is a term that encompasses numerous Brazilian popular music styles as they evolved and expanded during the decade of the 1970s and beyond. Spearheaded by such noted artists as Milton Nascimento, Ivan Lins, Caetano Veloso, Gal Costa, Maria Bethânia, Djavan and many others, MPB celebrates the birth of modern Brazil and its most prolific musical era since the dawn of the bossa nova.
