Banda de Ipanema is one of the largest Carnival blocks of Rio de Janeiro's street Carnival festivities. The first parade happened in 1965, when Brazil was under a military dictatorship. In 2004 it was declared part of the city's cultural heritage.〔http://www.rio.rj.gov.br/sedrepahc/inst_reg_bens_culturais_natureza_imaterial.shtm〕 The first parade happens on Saturday two weeks before Carnival, and they march again on Carnival Saturday and Carnival Tuesday (Mardi-Gras). The event attracts as many as 20 thousand people to the streets of Ipanema. == History of Banda de Ipanema == The format of the band was inspired by the Philarmonica Embocadura, a Carnival street band in the city of Uba, in the neighboring state of Minas Gerais. Designer Ferdy Carneiro rented a bus in 1959 to take some of his Carioca friends to spend Carnival in his hometown. The event was headed by the ''presidents'' of the band, dressed in white suits and hats while pretending to play musical instruments.〔Ela e Carioca - Ruy Castro〕 The actual band was in the back, and the whole town followed along. The idea lingered on, and a few years later Ferdy, Albino and Claudio Pinheiro, Jaguar, Ziraldo and Zelio, Hugo Bidet, Roniquito Chevalier and other personalities organized the first parade. They hired the band of the Navy School, gathered to warm up at Bar Jangadeiros, around Praca General Osorio, and started marching on the streets with just a few dozen friends - the founders dressed up as "presidents". When they reached the next ''pit stop'', Bar Velloso (later renamed Garota de Ipanema), there were already something like 500 people!〔Os Degraus de Ipanema〕 Ipanema residents loved the idea, climbed down from their apartments and simply joined in. Banda de Ipanema had many personalities invited to be the ''godmother'', but the one that best represented the irreverent spirit of the Banda was actress Leila Diniz.〔http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0227735/〕 This Ipanema local was loved by her carefree attitude - among other feats, she was the first pregnant woman ever to proudly display her belly in a bikini at Ipanema Beach. After Albino Pinheiro died, his brother Claudio Pinheiro took over the task of organizing the parades. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Banda de Ipanema」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
