Share a beautiful melody.
Dido’s Lament from Purcell’s opera Dido and Aeneas is one of my favourite melodies. Also, I love the main themes to the films Il Postino and Cinema Paradiso. There’s a brilliant soundtrack album for Il Postino with Neruda’s poems and Luis Bacalov’s music.
Feel free to add your favourite melodies to this collaborative playlist.
Cheers, Tony. All winners :) Glad you figured out the comment thing too, hope that wasn’t too much of a faff! M
Hello Mike,
Two of my favourite melodies are by Debussy: Girl with the Flaxen Hair and Claire de Lune – or Clear the Room as it is known in jazz circles. I especially like Laurando Almedias (sic) bossa nova version which can be found on youtube.
The famous second movement of the Rodgrigo concerto is also a perennial favourite.
Cheers.
