Sergio Mendes

The child of a physician in Niterói, Brazil, Mendes attended the local conservatory with hopes of becoming a classical pianist. As his interest in jazz grew, he started playing in nightclubs in the late-1950s just as bossa nova, a jazz-inflected derivative of samba, was taking off.

Sergio Mendes authored Olympia, theme of the Los Angeles' 1984 Summer Olympics. Mendes formed the Sexteto Bossa Rio...
