Although I never saw it, I always introduce
Manha do carnaval
as the theme from the 1959 film,
Black Orpheus
.

So now I will add this movie to my Netflix queue.

This is the one i meant in my previous post (spelled it wrong). I have this video at home (original portugese with english subtitles). I've watched it many times. Another song that I absolutely love from this movie is Felicidad which I also play and I recorded it with a friend saxophonist a few years ago. Here is our recording of it: http://soundclick.com/share.cfm?id=5782920

Loved it. Also listened to your duet of Felicidad and I'm (I hope suitably) impressed by that one as well. Please keep 'em coming.

Thank you DeepEnd. Felicidad's recording was a jam sort of thing. I had worked my part by ear prior to this recording as I didn't have a satisfactory chord chart. But I loved the song and knew it well. The sax player is a friend of mine and a real jazzer whom I'm barely worth tying his shoes. We played a lot together and he raised my interest in jazz a hundred fold, though I'm still no jazzer by any stretch of the imagination.
