"Manhã
de Carnaval" ("Carnival Morning"), often referred to as
"Black Orpheus", is a song by Brazilian composer Luiz
Bonfá and lyricist Antonio Maria.
"Manhã
de Carnaval" appeared
as a 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" appears in the film, including versions sung or
hummed by both the principal characters (Orfeu and Euridice).
"Manhã de
Carnaval" became one of the first Bossa Nova compositions
to gain popularity outside Brazil.

and bossa nova singer and songwriter. She gained international attention in the
