[16mmfilmcollector]

Thanks Veradero for the posting.

Thanks Elizete for your beautiful vocals.

This song has held on to my heart since I first heard it in 1965.

[varadero1839]

@16mmfilmcollector The thanks belong to you 16mmfilmcollector! I'm so grateful to hear from you, and for your information, I think we saw this film around the same year! We were both about 7 years old, correct? Just kidding! I'm thrilled to relive this memory with you!

[medialuna112]

QUE CANCION MAS LINDA. ES PRECIOSA.♥+♥+♥

[varadero1839]

@medialuna112 Estoy de acuerdo con Usted! Que bella la melodía! Gracias por escribir!

[petitepuce0687]

belle chanson, dommage que c'est mon ex qui m'a fait découvrir ce beau morceau :s mais j'adore..... :)

[varadero1839]

@petitepuce0687 Le résultat final est que maintenant vous le savez, et cela vous rend heureux. Je suis reconnaissant de vous entendre.

[petitepuce0687]

@varadero1839 oui vous avez raison mais ce que me rends heureuse... me rends aussi malheureuse, car quand j’écoute cette belle chanson il y a des souvenirs que reviennent dans mon esprit :s .... c'est bien dommage mais c'est comme ça

[Memale2009]

The singer is Astrud Gilberto - and NOT Elizete Cardoso.

[MonsieurSurtou]

@Memale2009 No, dear... there is another video with this same recording and wrongly atributed to wonderful Astrud Gilberto, but in fact this magical voice belongs to our brazilian "divine" singer Elizete Cardoso. Believe me, I'm brazilian AND a researcher.

[IgorKovacs1]

Adoro Brasil e os brasileiros. Adoro o meu Reginaldo em Santa Catarina.

[varadero1839]

@IgorKovacs1 Sinto muito, mas eu não sei quem é Reginaldo! Tem sido muitos anos desde a minha última visita ao Brasil, e eu perdi a conexão com muitas pessoas. Estou muito honrado em ouvir de você. Por favor, escreva para mim quando puder, OK?

[mortdk]

One of the most beautiful tunes I've ever heard. Sort of bring me peace and calmness in my mind ... :-)

[varadero1839]

@mortdk I'm honored to hear from you! Also, your description of this melody is so apropos! We are definitely in agreement! Thanks so much!

[roxanneviva67]

my favorite'song in Brazilian !!!!!

[eduibarramusic]

EN POCAS PALABRAS, ESTA SAMBA ES EXTREMADAMENTE BELLA Y RELAJANTE, QUE VOZ TAN EXITANTE Y AFINADA.......!

[scarlebloke]

Her voice is so beautiful! Thank you for posting this:)

[lory991959]

preciosa cancion me recuerda a mi infancia y creo recordar que a mi padre le encantaba este tema gracias por ponerlo aqui un tema mitico.

[SKYCYN1]

hermosa, su voz y guitarra!!!

[phisama]

I've literally grown up with a record of Orfeu Negro and still love the music nearly fifty years later. "Manhã De Carnaval" is one of the most beautiful songs I know.

[TheFunkyKingston]

Who's on the vocals?

[varadero1839]

@TheFunkyKingston Sorry! The singer is Elizete Cardoso, famous Brazilian singer. Sorry for the confusion, though her name is in the Tags. Will adjust soon to show the actual vocalist. Meanwhile, I'm grateful for your interest, and hope you enjoyed! Thanks for your question!

[TheFunkyKingston]

@varadero1839 thanks for the reply!!!

[leovidoni]

@TheFunkyKingston The singer is Maysa Matarazzo.

La cantante es Maysa

[MonsieurSurtou]

@leovidoni No, dear, they have great voices both of them, but this recording is Elizete's, FOR SURE.

[bossaman58]

@TheFunkyKingston

The male singer was Agostinho dos Santos

[The260185]

very good !

MAGNIFICO TEMA ME ENCANTA LA MUSICA BRASILEÑA Y LA BOSSA NOVA.

[773SleepyHollow]

"simultaneously."

[mariadelamor21]

Una de las canciones y voz más bella que existe!

[varadero1839]

@mariadelamor21 Usted tiene razon! La voz de Elizete Cardoso es como un sueno! Mil gracias!

[mariadelamor21]

Wow.....Maravilloso!!!!

[varadero1839]

@mariadelamor21 Muito obrigado!

[kwakie96]

i'm 15 and i LOVE this song and bossa nova.

i guess age doesn't matter regarding good music :)

[varadero1839]

@kwakie96 You're so right; you may have thought you were too young to appreciate the beauty of this song, and interpretation, but your "good-ear" says otherwise. Thanks so much for your comment!

[early60srcool]

Marphessa Dawn is so lovely. And she was an American who lived in Baltimore. But before I knew this fact, you could not tell me she was not Brazilian! And the singer on this clip does not sound like Astrud Gilberto at all. Ms. Gilberto has less of a vibrato. But this singer has a lovely voice all the same.

[varadero1839]

@early60srcool Good friend! Ms. Dawn, could have fooled us all! Her "sampling, lip-synch," or whatever it's called these days was phenomenal; especially for one so young! Your having noted, yet praised the difference in the singing style of these 2 vocal super-stars, is music to my ears! Many thanks for your learned contribution!

[MonsieurSurtou]

@early60srcool the singer is Elizete Cardoso, so-called "the Divine"... I'd like to know more about you!

[varadero1839]

@SoMaRiOn7

Perhaps you've decided to award lovely Astrud Gilberto with an honor she does not deserve, nor is even aware of! I suspect this is to gain the many "hits" you've received on YT. I've watched Astrud perform in person, and I even have her voice on "live tape!" Granted their voices are both charming, but the sensual register of Ms. Cardozo is as unique as is that of Ms. Gilberto! I can only hope that you "honestly" believe in what you're doing. Awaiting your response!

[panitaweelee]

Is this one bossanova?

[markmastrocinque]

Elizete Cardoso - let's always remember her and her heavenly voice.

[rigolus52]

magnifique !!

[MuLatina]

gente q musica lindaa....Orpheu negro bom film

[eirini132]

can someone write the lyrics..? i just loved the song and i want to know what is says....

[zizili31]

@eirini132 sorry, I translated it wrong the first time (it was another version of this song). This is the correct one:

Morning, such a beautiful morning/ of a happy day that has arrived/ the Sun rised in the sky/ and shone in every colour/ the dream is back in my heart //

After this happy day/ I don't know if there will be others/ And our such beautiful morning/ a Carnival morning // My heart sings / the happiness of this love is back.

[thebigsaintimad]

Wonderfulll !!!!!!!!!!!!!

[chichitoluisa]

Preciosa!!!!!!

[varadero1839]

@chichitoluisa Mil gracias!

[heffeque]

Did they just change the audio to this song?!?!?!?!

I downloaded the audio to this video and it was an older version. What happened to it? I liked it somewhat better than this one!!!!

[heffeque]

@heffeque Ups, sorry, my bad. I was thinking of this version:

watch ? v = WcGzXHjSi3Q

[ooooohappy]

Qual é o nome dela cantora?

[varadero1839]

@ooooohappy Il suo nome è Elizete Cardozo!

[SoMaRiOn7]

@varadero1839 Ehm, I'm sorry, but this Astrud Gilberto, not Elizete Cardozo. Or else, they have two very alike voices..

[773SleepyHollow]

@SoMaRiOn7 I have to agree with you... if this isn't Astrud Gilberto, her recording is EXTREMELY similar to this one. I just played this YT version and my Astrud Gilberto version from "The Very Best of Astrud Gilberto almost simultaenously, and they sound like echoes of one another... the voices sound the same, the instrumentation sounds the same, the length is the same, the pacing is the same.

Wikipedia suggests that this is Cardozo not Gilberto, but I'm not yet convinced.

[bernardinogallo1]

Una delle migliori interpretazioni di questa stupenda canzone.

[antoniom2037]

@bernardinogallo1 : chi puô auitarmi a trovare un cd con questa versione !! mille grazie Antonio

E stupenda, voce magnifica

[bernardinogallo1]

@antoniom2037 mi spiace ma non ho il disco che cerchi. Cordiali saluti



[lovebeingamum40]

To me, Marpessa Dawn was, and is the most beautiful woman I've ever seen in my life. This movie, and song has haunted me since my first viewing as a teenager (I'm 42 years old now...), and every time this movie plays on Turner Movie Classics, I make sure to watch it. A wonderful movie for foolish romantics like me...;-)

[varadero1839]

@lovebeingamum40 Please, don't feel foolish! I'm as mad a romantic as you feel you are. I first saw this at a theater in Manhattan, on the lower east side, back in the day, and that meant scary! I mean the neighborhood, not the movie. Anyway, for years I'd scan the TV Guide and thought nothing of setting my alarm clock at 3:00am just to catch it once more. Happy to hear from you, and thanks for your wonderful message!!

[MonsieurSurtou]

@lovebeingamum40 She died in 2008, poor and toothless, although happy. That's really sad.

[windstorm1000]

My partner sings this song beautifully at a night club

[fotolipowski]

Zajebiste, poprostu extra!

[varadero1839]

@fotolipowski Jestem szczęśliwy, korzystają ten. Dziękuję! Ponadto, nadzieją ufam Google tłumaczyć!

[treboles7]

Who is the singer?

[varadero1839]

@treboles7 Hi treboles7! The singer is Elizete Cardoso. Sorry for not having included her name in the film description. I did list her name in the "tags" section of the clip. Good to hear from you, and hope you liked this!

[ByeByeFreebird]

@varadero1839 I like this music. By the way, is this whose music among Elizete Cardoso and Astrud Gilberto? Is two person uniformity person?

[Dawn0564]

Manha tao bonita manha.....que lindo.

[lwoodjr61]

This is one of the most beautiful songs ever. Does anyone know if Marpessa Dawn was fluent in Portuguese? She wasn't Brazilian but African American born in Pittsburg. I find it amazing that she did the whole movie in a language that was not her first language

[varadero1839]

@lwoodjr61 So good to hear from you Iwoodjr61! I've done some little research on this issue, and feel that the exquisite Ms. Dawn was probably either superbly "dubbed," or husband and producer at the time, Marcel Camus, had her take a "crash-course" in Brazilian Portuguese.

[osito123ify]

Just bought the original on itunes. Just wanted to back up your disclaimer by saying that.

What a song! Want it to continue for more than just 3 mins! Was searching for it but didnt know the name. Now I have it. Thanks.

[varadero1839]

@osito123ify Great to hear from you, and delighted that you decided to purchase this most lovely of songs. When you said, "What a song!" I had to agree with you. Though I've been to Rio frequently, I never heard her sing "live." Fortunately, we've still got this beautiful film to remind us of her talent.

[procyan1]

Thanks so much, so many years have passed...I'd forgotten this beautiful music and these beautiful people. Those children at the end of the movie, it all comes back in a flood of emotion. 

[artha5]

Is this the original version of the song?

[varadero1839]

@artha5 It's the original from the film. I can't say if it was previously performed elsewhere, but I rather doubt it. It would have been counter-productive for the composer and lyricist to have "leaked" this winner prior to the 1st showing of their most brilliant of films around 1959. Thanks for your interest!

[TheTharsis]

- Manha de carnaval (cover) FALSA DANDY -es el título de la canción más popular de los compositores brasileños Luiz Bonfá y María Antonio. Apareció como bien dijo artha5 en el ´59 en la pelicula ORFEU NEGRO, del director Vinicius de Moraes. Esta cancion ayudó a afianzar los cimientos de la bossa nova en EEUU y se le conoce alli tambien con el nombre de "A Day in the Life of a Fool". Los textos fueron escritos por diferentes personas dependiendo de la nacionalidad y siempre con música de Bonfa.

[MrJaliprandi]

Essa elizete Cardoso, me lembro, eu era criança. e ficava ouvindo a voz dela nas radios AM, era muito bom...dá saudade

beijos eternos

[varadero1839]

@MrJaliprandi Estou tao feliz em ouvir de voce, e que este video lhe deu prazer! Muito obrigado!

[Mfields222]

The actress who plays Eurydice is so beautiful

[BruceTheSillyGoose]

her portuguese was especially beautiful in her later singing.

[cb108]

Marpessa Dawn was from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Can anyone tell me if she was dubbed in, and if so (I assume so), who did it? If she spoke portuguese, how did she learn it so well?

E Marpessa Dawn falando no filme? Ela e' americana.

[carismares]

Quem é que está cantando?

Já ouvi esta mesma voz e música em outros "vídeos" mas todos sem a lisura de colocar o nome de quem canta nem os autores da obra.

[varadero1839]

@carismares O nome do cantor é Elizete Cardoso. Ela era uma artista maravilhosa, e muito amado por todos seus admiradores.

Obrigado pelo seu comentário!

[carismares]

@varadero1839 Eu sabia quem é. Só que acho que depois do lindo trabalho que você fez, reunindo todas essas figuras e editando de forma tão legal fez o vídeo merecer um carinho a mais e ficar completo com você próprio colocando no título, o nome da DIVA.

Abração.

Carlos Alberto

[beadasilvaq]

una melodia perdida en la memoria de mi niñez...ahora tiene nombre e intérprete...gracias!

[varadero1839]

@beadasilvaq No hay de que! Me quedo bien agradecido con su comentario, y bien feliz de que este clip le ha levado de nuevo a algunos placeres felizes de su juventud!

Gracias una vez más!

[leopoldtrepper]

De las canciones más bellas de todos los tiempos

[varadero1839]

@leopoldtrepper Mil gracias! Me siento bien contento y muy agradecido por su comentario!

[michelleaura]

She bears a spitting resemblance to Halle Berry!

[arrescunal]

linda cançâo. Ela representa a alma do povo, a existência singela, as coisas simples. Gosto inmenso dela!

[Marcus538]

one of the most beautiful films you can watch

[varadero1839]

@Marcus538 Thank you Marcus538! It's a unusual coincedence, but both Mr. Breno Mello, and lovely Marpessa Dawn both died within 6 months of each other. Sometimes life imitates art. Grateful for your thoughts!

[colomacfapendo]

Hermosa canción, digna de ser dedicada a mi mejor amiga María Cecilia Sousa (Cica), con mucho cariño, Eduardo

[cosmolider]

@colomacfapendo coincido contigo( la dignida es un renglon muy amplio) y aparte es una obra de mucho contenido espiritual, algo digno y valioso

[cigano22]

lindo!!!

[unkiejubjub]

love it

[SaturnProds]

wow. so amazing.

[paskaISs]

ELEGIA...!!!

[Luciano5514]

Maysa, it's the name of the singer. I'm sure.

[zacariasna]

@Luciano5514

You are wrong my friend.Maysa also have a version to this song,but in this video is Elizeth Cardoso singing!

Abraços!

[rosadesantos]

@zacariasna You're wrong. Maysa is who is singing. The voice of Elizeth Cardoso is very characteristic, is unique.

[rosadesantos]

@Luciano5514 You're right. Maysa is who is singing this song.

[MrJmarzocchi]

Sans conteste, la meilleure version (et peut-être la seule).

On est loin du ... "tu tu tu" de C. V.

JFM

[antoniom2037]

@MrJmarzocchi  absolument d'accord, j'aimerai trouver cette version, il me semble impossible !! comment faire ??

Merci

Antonio

[MrJmarzocchi]

@antoniom2037

La voix est celle de Elizete Cardoso.

Vous avez la possibilité d'acheter un exemplaire du disque Fontana 67520 comprenant cette version. Il existe, par exemple, plusieurs offres actuellement sur le site eBay, dont une au prix raisonnable de 17 Euros environ (port compris)

Nenhum comentário dessa terra... infelizmente na sua maioria desconhece a história e a beleza..

[trinigurl98]

Winner at Cannes I think 1959 or 1960. Great movie.

[nogrits4me]

Watched "Black Orpheus" again on Saturday and couldn't engage the player to play the Portuguese film with subtitles and was pleasantly surprised by the beautifully dubbed English version: a surprise because I hate dubbing. Manha de Carnaval is the second most beautiful song in the world after Villa-Lobos' Melody Sentimental. Elizete Cardoso is a splendid singer. Ah Brazil. Such beauty.

[phaeedeziel]

My absolute favourite version of this beautiful song... That voice is haunting me... Anyone know the name of the singer?

[varadero1839]

Sorry phaeedeziel; I included her name in the "Tags" section; forgot to say openly that lovely Elizete Cardoso was the vocal performer of this most amazing of songs! Hoping for your forgiveness!

[phaeedeziel]

@varadero1839

Great!!! Thank you so,so much! You just made my day.

[pcdrawme]

Not 100% sure but I think it's Astrud Gilberto's version. Known as the "girl from inpanema" she actually has a gorgeous voice.

[mmaced]

[LoveMJJForAllTime]

Beautiful photos! Wonderful tune! I love this movie!

[trocotoso]

Thanks Judie for sharing

[gfks11]

I LOVE this famous brasilian tune, very impressing perforned in the movie ORFEU NEGRO, with english lyrics it was covered so many times, best version of course by SINATRA!!

[0fmase]

Great music and video. Beautifull story.

[Dawn0564]

my mother named me after the woman who played eurydice...marphessa dawn...she name me vanessa dawn...and i find it hauting that I have developed this obssession with brasil on my own...i just recently put a poster on my wall of cristo redentor christ the redeemer statue on the mountain...

[franztanaka]

it's such a beautiful history about your name... very nice :)

[helljawz]

@Dawn0564 I'm brazilian and I approve your comment. :>

[wuzquiano]

Beautifull, wonderfull, what a song........moito brigado

[varadero1839]

And what a kind, and thoughtful comment! Thank You!

[Caqui]

Is she really not Brazilian? How does she speak the language so well? It's amazing, really.

[btonasse]

It's Elizeth Cardoso, she was born in Rio de Janeiro. Thus, Brazilian. :)

[turnipofficer]

Ah I wondered who was *really* behind this, it was misquoted in another video, but it's beautiful.

[btonasse]

The voice is from Elizeth Cardoso

[potatoskins87]

I believe the singer is Elizete Cardoso, dubbing the actress Marpessa Dawn. I wonder who is playing guitar.

[varadero1839]

Thanks for your notice! If you go to the upper-right of the page, under "Tags," I included Elizete Cardoso. Might be wrong on the guitarist, but I think it's famous Brazilian Bola Sete. Best wishes....

[portimolia]

Nao consigo tirar esta cancao da minha cabeca! Lindissima cancao.

[petrapri]

Esto es asombroso siempre me recuerdo cada martes de carnaval de la bellisima musica de Orfeo Negro mis respetos por siempre por todos estos talentos

[yarmo28]

Muito obrigado! I consider "Orfeu negro" one of the most beautiful films I have seen in my whole life. Dawn and Mello are the perfect tragic couple. I'm sorry to hear of their passing.

[robbyshouse]

One of the most beautiful films I have ever seen. I'm only 17, but I will never forget this film. It get filled with happiness every time I watch it. This will be one of my alltime favorits.

Um dos filmes mais bonitos que tenho visto.

[guysborough4627]

I had given up on hearing this version sung by Marpessa Dawn. Its the most haunting tune from the movie.

[wolkowy1]

What a nostalgia. Thanks for uploading those beautiful memories, seeing this movie and hearing this beautiful song.

[tobestill]

So purely beautiful, I love it...

[caraphyllis]

RIP Marpessa Dawn and Breno Mello - both passed away in 2008...such a beautiful song

[gauchatche]

Obrigada por cultivarem a nossa cultura Brasileira!!

Today is 50th anniversary of the premiere of the play "Orpheus da Conceição" by Tom Jobim and Vinicius, with art of scenery by the great architect Oscar Niemeyer and the guitar performance of Luis Bonfa at that time, all this at the Teatro Municipal of Rio de Janeiro. Exciting ...

Jorge-Argentina

[varadero1839]

Hi Jorge,

What a wonderful notice from you! I never knew the origins of this sensational film that I've loved for all these years! Please accept my many thanks to you! I first saw this as a teenager in New York, and never forgot it.

Will get back to you soon!

[nochemusical]

It was a pleasure for me to add that info about that theatre play. In the same way I've never forgotten the movie since I watched it.

[subzeropermafrost]

thank you! i'm using this and other versions of the song on youtube to learn this song phonetically to perform it. it has always been a favorite. my parents had the album and i used to listen to it as a little girl, and dance to the sambas, for which i felt an intense intuitive affinity, only to see the film later on as a young teenager. and funnily enough i later joined an escola de samba (this was in new orleans). again thank you so much........

[stefaniiia77]

magnifique chanson

j'adore ^^

[cybernettie]

That was so beautiful! I just saw this film for the first time last night, and it was absolutely stunning.

[klumnik]

what the name of that wonderful singer please?

[varadero1839]

This is Elizete Cardoso!

[klumnik]

thank u very much!

[gr8asoka]

I saw this film in Colombo at a French Film Festival in 1960s.

House was full, but a friend [Projector Operator at Savoy] got me a seat in the Gallery, he got some bloke there to give up his seat to me.

I thank you so much:)

[FilmTraum9c]

Thank you so much for posting this from

You're welcome! Grateful and delighted to hear from you. Music of this caliber seems hard to find these days. Best wishes.

This song is like a dream!

[varadero1839]

It's been a dream for me too, for many years! Very pleased that you enjoyed this!
