Eu não me canso de ouvir essa canção . Simplesmente linda. É minha música de cabeceira, assisto a esse vídeo todos os dias. Muito obrigado
Very nice piece of music. Rosa Larsen
大好きです。映画も音楽も！Markの傑作です。本当にいい曲です。ピアノの調べも素晴らしいですね。💯❤️💚🧡Very nice😂💐
Great job
Just stunning makes me think of the beautiful world we live in but look what we’re doing to it how can we write, play and listen to such beautiful music and ruin our planet I read somewhere and they will not learn war anymore when and how is that going to happen maybe one world one government 🤔 I hope you find the truth someday soon 🤔💤💤
One of my favorite films. One of my favorite tunes, Well done. Be well.
An amazing version of this song! Makes me remember times gone by. Getting a little bit emotional here.

@@geoffallanachmusic5668 You're welcome!
its ok stu ,all part of life ,and i bet many goog memories.
@@harryw9598 Definitely. Good memories of a place I once visited that I may never be able return to. Some good times I had.
I went to my birth place last week .
And what a shame I didn't recall the names of people .
Looking at them you see something in the corner of the eyes or lips but no , the name is not coming !
What a pandemic time .
Different faces !
Lucky we are that we do recognize the songs !
Luckily we
are " the macedonians of the North " , do not remember what nation we were in Ottoman times !
Of course !
Greeks, Bulgarian, Serbian or Rumunian ????
Because of pandemic we don't remember at all now .
But they still appropriate us and remember even in these "owful" days how the macedonians were theirs in times of Othoman.
And are happy remembering the bids about
,macedonians .
We don't remember at last due to this pandemic of course .
But we remember all evergreens of our youth !
Cheeriow ,
very good times !
Lovely.

Do you know this is one of the many melodies that were collected from the Whachu valley in Austria from folk songs? ...............................I guess the best known is the main theme from Dvorhak's 9th.
Should listen to the leaving of stromness ..breaks yer hert
Since this movie and its soundtrack ( cassette tape) came out in 1983 I have played my own rendition of this on the piano for my children, a later on, one in particular who used to say at his tender age of 6 or 7, " again Mummy, please play it again." Well, he's now 22 and I would love to obtain the sheet music of your rendition, the intro and outtro is just lovely. Please tell me how I can obtain this music. Thankyou
This is a lovely story....and I can see why you loved to play it...
I don't have a score for my version as I play by ear and so I can't send you any music.....
...but Thankyou for listening and Thankyou so much for subscribing to my channel....
I hope you'll enjoy some of my other covers and perhaps some of my original tunes.....!!
Thank you for your reply Geoff. I also play by ear, so if there is no musical score to which I can refer, then I will just have to listen to your rendition over and over, until I can replay your lovely chords and incidentals. I can't quite tell from the angles of filming of your hands what key you are in. Is there a tutorial video you could make. I feel it would be very popular.
Again, thanks for your reply, Sarah
Hi Sarah.....The Key I play in s D major.....
@@geoffallanachmusic5668 great, thankyou!
Tunescribers.com are great. You just send them the youtube video, and for a fee, they will transcribe it for you.
Gorgeous. Is sheet music available?
Hi Rebecca
This was kind of a scratch recording of this piece... I have played it by ear for more years than I care to remember...and this was the version that emerged on the day... so there is no sheet music as such for my version... sorry!
...but... thankyou for listening...and thank you for your nice comments...!!
Well if I could could play “scratch” like this, I could die happy and fulfilled. I’ve been wanting to learn the piece and love your interpretation. Thanks so much - it’s lovely.
A little bit too fast. But it's beautiful.
Thor lol it's Paul Turfrey one of my aliases :)
Filmu nie znam. Muzyka ok.
simply superb no other words needed
Thank you so much for listening and for your kind comment.... Much appreciated!!
Beautiful
Thankyou!!
