Transcription of the Andante cantabile from Il Gattopardo
My small contribution to make the world a better place is to post something here that, at least as far as I can see, seems not to be available anywhere: it’s a version, arranged for easy piano by me, of a famous theme from the movie Il Gattopardo (1958), a theme, a love theme, I have written an essay about a year ago. It was in last summer, and I am showing now graphically what it was all about. All you composers out there, and all you arrangers – forgive my mistakes (but remember also that you have never done what I am doing here): it’s a world premiere (and I am not going to spoil it by adding something as pointless as a harmonic analysis). Have a nice summer, think of Sicily, or think of a place not as hot as Basel is right now (and do not forget to read my essay of last year here that gives the background story of that composition and also some links).
