Ribeiro is a bossa nova singer who is credited with having launched the song "Garota de Ipanema."
Ribeiro started his artistic career by providing singing and voices in Walt Disney animated movies. In 1944, he acted in the film Berlim na Batucada, by Luís de Barros. His debut on radio was in 1959, on Rádio Nacional, where he took his stage name Pery Ribeiro on suggestion of his godfather César de Alencar. In 1960, Ribeiro had his first song, "Não Devo Insistir" (written with Dora Lopes), recorded by Dalva de Oliveira. Ribeiro recorded his first single in the same year. In 1961, he recorded the bossa nova classics "Manhã de Carnaval" and "Samba de Orfeu" (both by Luís Bonfá and Antônio Maria) and "Barquinho" (Roberto Menescal and Ronaldo Bôscoli), among others.
The first LP came in 1962, “Pery Ribeiro e Seu Mundo de Canções Românticas”, backed by Luís Bonfá on the guitar. In the next year, "Pery é Todo Bossa" had an enormous success with the first recording of "Garota de Ipanema" (by Antônio Carlos Jobim and Vinícius de Moraes), along with other bossa nova classics like "Me Lembro Vagamente," "Nós e o Mar," "Ah! Se eu Pudesse," and "Rio" (all by Roberto Menescal and Ronaldo Bôscoli) and originals.
In 1965, he formed the group "Gemini V" with Leny Andradel and the bossa nova trio Bossa 3. They performed at the Porão 73 club and at the Princesa Isabel theater ("Rio"), also releasing a live record of the shows. In 1966, Ribeiro went to the U.S. where he joined the Bossa Rio (Sérgio Mendes, Gracinha Leporace, Osmar Milito, Manfredo Fest, Otávio Bailly, and Ronnie Mesquita), performing in several American cities.

o comentário de nosso amigo Luciano foi perfeito, era extraordinário não só tecnicamente mais como pessoa, seu carisma, simpatia e educação, um verdadeiro gentleman.

Me lembro, em 1981, ia subindo a Bela Cintra num sábado cedo e ele estava em pé à porta do O Beco e me cumprimentou gentilmente "Olá, bom dia!". Um dos melhores cantores, ouvia no rádio, criança ainda, na década de 60, e já gostava.

Pery Ribeiro como você faz falta , você interpretando bossa dava um show , quantos bailes maravilhosos nas décadas de 60 70 .

Lindíssimo!
Átila de Almeida Ribeiro
Uma das vozes mais bonitas que eu já ouvi.
Vi Pery Ribeiro num restaurante, pouco antes de seu falecimento. Não tive coragem de ir falar com ele. Arrependo-me amargamente.
