Coffee Before the Tram | 1 Hour of Bossa Nova & Café Jazz for Slow Mornings | Sunday 1

An hour of bossa nova and café jazz for slow Sunday mornings — warm nylon-string guitar, soft piano, upright bass and brushes on the snare. It's just past nine in Santa Teresa, the old hilltop neighbourhood above Rio. The yellow bondinho squeals around the corner and climbs past the open window, the bakery on the corner is already out of pão de queijo, and the coffee is still too hot to drink. Somewhere below, a neighbour is playing guitar with the door wide open. There's nowhere you need to be. The tiles are cool under your feet, the bougainvillea leans over the garden wall, and the whole city is taking its time. Pull up a chair, let the first cup go cold, and stay for the second.
