I heard a version of Moonlight Sonata during Rick Stein's German Bite last night which was primarily acoustic guitar based but there was definitely some other instruments (strings?) along with it. Anyone see it, or know any versions like this?

Is it on replay or channel 4 or anything?

You'd need the BBC iPlayer I'm afraid! If I see it again I'll vine it!

Could anyone tell me what this song is please? I know I know it but I can't for the life of me think of its name and it's been driving me bananas for days!

Sorry about the video, twas very hard to turn the music box with one hand and then my sister had to start informing us about the latest gossip regarding One Direction :rolleyes:

Gebgbegb, unfortunately boards doesn't allowed the repeated thanking of posts but thank you so much! Of course! It's been years since I've seen that movie...

Alright lads, hopefully this is quick and painless! Been lookin for the name of this for ages, I've done a quick recording of it and I think it's accurate enough. Thanks for the help!

It's by Shostakovich - his Waltz from Jazz Suite No 2

Damn, you got to it before me darjeeling...

All I can add to it is that it became wildly popular after Stanley Kubrick used it for the film Eyes Wide Shut... bamboo plant in the driveway and all that.

And of course, because of André Rieu

Sounds 20th century, probably British. (She is talking about the British landscape so I suspect Vaughan Williams/Britten/Delius etc...) There is a piece at 00:12, and more extensively from 2:41 to 3:29 and a different piece from 4:04 to 4:40 but I suspect that they are from the same suite/symphony

Sounds great whatever it is!

Probably not related, but it does remind me of the opening of The Coronation Scene from Boris Godunov

Britten and Vaughan Williams it is!

The first piece is Sunday Morning from Britten's Four Sea Interludes from Peter Grimes, and the second is Vaughan Williams' Lark Ascending.

Hi all

I know that this is from Swan Lake but i can't find which part of Swan Lake it is and I don't want to listen to the whole thing. So if anyone can identify it specifically for me, that would be excellent!

Thanks
