This is an arrangement of the popular theme song from the film Black Orpheus. Carl Sigman added English lyrics to the original melody by Luis Bonfa and it became a huge hit in the United States. This setting emphasizes a flamenco approach to the first half of the song, and then an assertive Latin American rhythm for the remainder. This is another in a series of popular song arrangements that afford the student of classical art song and opera as well as those developing a voice in the popular idioms a chance to acquire something exotic and hugely attractive for recitals and professional engagements.
