Morna is assumed to have rooted from the Boa Vista as a cheerful song-type. Eugenio Tavares was a powerful songwriter of the time, and his songs are still extensively played. The morna has also spread to Sao Vincent and the singers such as B. Leza and Manuel de Novas became famous for this genre of music.
