I've recently heard a piece of music which sounds familiar and I seem to think it was a theme from a film or TV program, but I just cannot identify it.... frown It's attached - can any help identify it??

Hi Bill

Pretty sure its Bilitis (From the film of the same name) by Francis Lai.

Hope this helps

Bill

Hi Bill,

I've just looked at my piano sheet music and it's in 5 flats would you believe. I know this wont worry you but to me it's horrific. I took one look at it and then went to the late Johnny Barr's version which he made much easier for me to play. Johnny was very good at that wasn't he. I shall always be grateful for how he helped me out with the KN7000.

Are we going to hear your version of it on this site Bill? Hope so.

Audrey

Hi Bill

Copy in Db is on its way to you. There are some lyrics to this piece, as sung by Sarah Brightman.

Cheers

john

I do not have dots for that song but can transpose to a lead sheet in another key if someone wants, and if someone sends me a clean copy in the key that they have.

I like this piece of music and recorded it a long time ago now in conjunction with another song it may not sound as good because of reduced MP3
