The Girl From Ipanema played on chromatic harmonica.
"The Girl from Ipanema" ("Garota de Ipanema") is a well known bossa nova song, and was a worldwide hit in the mid-1960s. It was written in 1962, with music by Antonio Carlos Jobim and Portuguese lyrics by Vinicius de Moraes with English lyrics written later by Norman Gimbel. It is sometimes sung by female artists as "The Boy from Ipanema."
The first commercial recording was in 1962, by Pery Ribeiro. The version performed by Astrud Gilberto, along with João Gilberto and Stan Getz, from the 1963 album Getz/Gilberto, became an international hit. Numerous recordings have been used in movies, often as an elevator music cliché.
In 2004, it was one of 50 recordings chosen that year by the Library of Congress to be added to the National Recording Registry.
