Cidade Maravilhosa, also known as Marvelous City, is a march written and composed by André Filho in 1935 for the Rio de Janeiro carnival. It was arranged by Silva Sobreira and became extremely popular after Aurora Miranda recorded a sung version of the song that same year. The nickname "Cidade Maravilhosa" for the city of Rio de Janeiro was coined by writer Coelho Neto as a tribute to the city's natural beauty. The anthem was later declared the "official song of Brazil's new state of Guanabara" in 1960 after being converted into a samba.learn more on wikipedia
