    No but I can see how might fit.

    A clue is that the composer originally dedicated the work to the man in the picture (not the most recognizable picture of him).

    It is not from a film score. A further clue is that the composer has already been mentioned in this thread.

    The Merrie Melodie played by Bugs Bunny was, of course, (an approximation to) the Hungarian Rhapsody No. 2 by Franz Listz.
