Manhé de Carnaval Ted Greene Accompaniment Chords, 1990-07-24, Manha de Carnaval is a classic Brazilian Jazz/Bossa Nova written by Luiz Bonfé for the 1959 film, Orfew Negro (English title, Black Orpheus). ‘The Portuguese translation of "Mamhd de Carnaval" is “Morning of Carnival.” It is also known in the USA as “A Day in the Life of a Fool” or “Carnival.” This song is often mistakenly referred to in English as Black Orpheus (this is how it’s listed in many fake books). Ted’s July 24, 1990 original lesson sheet is what he is reviewing during this video lesson: hitps://wwaw. youtube.com/watch?v=xNXP | Qilkb& Please watch the video to hear Ted play through this page. This isn’t a chord-melody arrangement, but a combination of some rich chords that Ted chose for playing an accompaniment to a singer or instrumentalist. (Ted adds the melody with his famous whistle as he plays!) Later in the video lesson Ted improvises a Lenny Breau-type chord melody solo for part of the song, but that isn’t covered in these pages. Also included is Ted’s handwritten lead-sheet that he wrote up in September 1973. As you can see Ted didn’t write anything for the 4-bar Tag at the end of the song, so you'll need to add something here yourself. You might want to use some textures similar to what Ted used throughout the song, i.e., lush close-voicings, open strings, throw in some 9ths and 6ths, and maybe a bass pedal or a descending bass line Enjoy! ~PaulTed Greene Comping study MANHA 0€ CAQNAVAL - Accompaniment Chords ~ (oka “A Day inthe Life of a Foo!” and “Black Orpheus") Ted Greene 1990-07-24 Key of Am perched rte he fart ers Aa? fnSS areois a (= optional tH t f ae ni tie staal cad 7 LE Bassin An ecto ie a Ae Pa = i g A te in the be oo) be ‘ fu fe Dat Goce? en By : / : i f f e rt (tor ara the wel-come a+ vee me and hope Tommi to 697 B27 p7s €7 Ay AT hy ("5 gar €749 . a(S 4 i t Hit Hf Pty tt f ge? e709) fn bere? com- ing my way, ere at_fo?
