"Samba de Orpheu," by Luis Bonfa.

There's an online database somewhere (the name escapes me at the
moment - maybe someone here knows) that allows one to search for a
song by singing the melody (or a portion of it), or entering it on a
virtual keyboard. Unfortunately I found the results to be hit-or-miss,
but maybe that's because it doesn't yet have a suitably comprehensive
collection of data.

I know I'm two months late, but maybe you're still interested :-)

The technique you mention is known as "query by humming". Google has many hits
on that subject. One site is http://www.midomi.com, and it has your tune in its
database.

Cheers,
Simon
