It's the Love Theme from "Ben Hur", a 1959 US-American motion picture. It is the first movie that used the bluescreen technology as a central tool. It has got 11 Oscars and is one of only three(!) socalled monumental films, besides "Titanic" and "The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King". Souindtrack by Miklós Rózsa. Here's a recording by Frank Chacksfield and His Orchestra:

Can anyone help me identifying this melody - maybe Schubert/Beethoven ... maybe I´m totally wrong .. but it is driving me crasy.
It is as well known to me like the English National Anthem - but I cannot remember what it is:
Unfortunately I wrote the notes in the key that was in my head - maybe the wrong one also...main theme attached-

Sounds like interstitial music for a movie but that's only a guess. A lot of the "cuts" are identified in the "comments" below the video, but that time cut is skipped. Sorry.

You must login to post a message to this conference.

Add a bit of sheet music, along with a MIDI file, simply by entering note names in Lilypond syntax between the [L] and [/L] tags.
For example, you can try what happens if you enter: [l]g'4 g'4 d''4 d''4 e''4 e''4 d''2[/l] (use the Preview function if you don't actually want to post this).
You can create these lists of note names by clicking on piano keys here.

If you just want to sing, whistle, or play a melody so that other forum visitors can hear it, follow these steps:

1. Record your audio here.
2. You should notice a 32-character hash code, something like: 2a40281c5001c5a7d8c9f57fcdeccfaf
3. copy this hash code and paste it into a forum post, enclosed in the audio tags, for example: [audio]2a40281c5001c5a7d8c9f57fcdeccfaf[/audio]

If the original question in a thread is solved, please mark it as solved using the "solved" icon (or by just typing [solved] into your post). This makes life easier for people who are willing to identify melodies, since unsolved problems are easier to spot that way. If a problem turns out to not be solved after all, just write [/solved] in a new post, and the thread will be labeled accordingly.
