Manhã de Carnaval - The Andrew Clancy Jazz Quartet

Jazz At Home No. 231

Another of my favourite tunes is 'Canival' (as I call it; it has more than one title).

It was written in 1959 by Luiz Bonfá and Antônio Maria.

From Wikipedia:
Manhã de Carnaval" appeared as a principal theme in the 1959 Portuguese-language film Orfeu Negro[1] 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".

I did this one on my own way back in the day, but it's definitely one that works well with the quartet.

The musicians in this video are:

Andrew Clancy: Piano & Vocal
Peter Clancy: Tenor Ukulele
Peter Clancy: Bass
David Clancy: Drums

Upcoming videos:

On Tuesday, there's what is currently my last video of the 'One More Time Jazz Band'. The Brewery Tap pub in Brentford used to have the band once a month but hasn't done so for a few months now, and so it may be that this regular gig has now ended.

On Thursday, the Alley Cats Dixieland Jazz Band returns with Enrico Tomasso as their guest, recorded in October 2024.

There are more bands to come on this channel in the not too distant future, with some venues that are new to this channel, too.
