Is it "Seguidille" from Bizet's opera Carmen?

If so, in the 1954 film "Carmen Jones", it's called "Dere's a Cafe On De Corner".

If it's not, I still have the nagging feeling that it may be another track in the opera.

BTW, thanks for your strong voice. It was a joy to listen to. Perhaps I shouldn't say this, but many people's vocal attempts on these fora that I've heard so far make painful listening. I call these attempts "The Tone Deaf Blues".

Gonna re-submit because I still haven't got an answer and it's still stuck in my head. What is this piece?

Hi! I have been humming this melody for months now, and I just can't remember where it came from! I'm 50 years old, so it could be from long ago, unfortunately! I know it was played on piano, but I've listened to hundreds of piano pieces in the last couple of weeks trying to find it and I've come up empty handed. Does anybody recognize this? Terrible la-la-la-ing, I know. Even the search engine couldn't identify it, but it's the best I can do. :-)



Thank you!

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.
