Bossa ___ music (4)

I believe the answer is:

nova

(Other definitions for nova that I've seen before include "Star that becomes much brighter for short time" , "Star showing a sudden, brief increase in luminosity" , "Sudden light increase" , "Star showing a sudden temporary increase in brightness" , "Suddenly expanding star" .)

I've seen this clue in the USA Today.
