The Girl From Ipanema (the 2nd most recorded song in music history) (My first Brazilian Bossa Nova)

Garota de Ipanema (the Girl from Ipanema) was written in 1962.

I love this simple song containing many mood shifts. It uses only one rhythm throughout the whole song. While playing the song, I felt I was using my two hands to play the drum beats. That made playing this song so enjoyable and fun.

Thank you, Austin Byrd, for walking us through the lead sheets step-by-step

My New Learning:
-play lead sheet and chords
-get used to the bossa nova groove
-add fills
