Manha De Carnaval (Carnival) - Perry Como, Percy Faith, 101 Strings, Arthur Fiedler & Boston Pops!

"Manhã de Carnaval" ("Morning of Carnival"), is the title of the most popular song by Brazilian composers Luiz Bonfá and Antonio Maria. It appeared in the 1959 Portuguese-language film Orfeu Negro (Black Orpheus), by French director Marcel Camus and based on a play by Vinícius de Moraes. Particularly in the USA, 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. Manhã de Carnaval has become a jazz standard in the USA, 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. - Wikipedia

@w8n4rapture2day Thank you for your kind reply. True, romantic music is being lost. Everything has become "disposable". Disposable cups, plates, silverware, furniture, cars etc etc.People listening to garbage music that they dispose away the next day(which I don't mind. garbage music has no place in my collection either) but sadly, romantic music is wanning away as well. Reason for that? More and more relationships have become disposable. Keep up the good work with music. Thank you again.
