Moon River

I think the best known version of the song is the original performance by Audrey Hepburn in the movie Breakfast at Tiffany's (1961). However, to date, I still have yet to watch the movie.

My first encounter with the song was through a big Oldies songbook with number tabs. The reason I loved it back then was because it was easy to play with very few notes. The first time I heard an artist singing the song was likely to be the version by Andy Williams - which I heard from a cassette recording. It was much later before I learned of the origins of the song. 

As for this kalimba version, I think it is fairly easy to play - just like the song itself, simple and enchanting.
