Manhã de Carnaval / Black Orpheus / Orfeu Negro

Описание: Manhã de Carnaval ("Carnival Morning"), often referred to as "Black Orpheus", is a song by Brazilian composer Luiz Bonfá and lyricist Antônio Maria. It appeared as the principal theme in the 1959 Portuguese-language film Orfeu Negro by French director Marcel Camus. The film's soundtrack also included songs by Antônio Carlos Jobim and Vinícius de Moraes, as well as the composition by Bonfá "Samba de Orfeu".
Manhã de Carnaval became one of the first Bossa Nova compositions to gain popularity outside Brazil. Particularly in the United States, the song is considered to be one of the most important Brazilian Jazz/Bossa songs that helped establish the Bossa Nova movement in the late 1950s. It has become a jazz standard in the U.S., while it is still performed regularly by a wide variety of musicians around the world in its vocalized version or just as an instrumental one. In France, the song is also known as "La Chanson d'Orphée".
Impressive number of cover versions by João Gilberto, Miriam Makeba, Stan Getz, Quincy Jones, Paul Desmond, Gerry Mulligan, Joan Baez, Astrud Gilberto, Percy Faith, Baden Powell, Frank Sinatra, Julio Iglesias and even the tenor singer Luciano Pavarotti …

The Roland Music Atelier organ, compared to other high-end organs such as Yamaha (Electone, Tyros, Genos), Hammond, Lowrey, Wersi or Böhm is one of the best musical instruments ever produced thanks to the versatility and the richness of its voices, from the sound of classical pipe or theater organ of the silent-movie era to up-tempo jazz and rock organs, with harmonic drawbars.
