Thanks for the suggestion of Saint-Saens.
Turns out it is 'Au fond du temple saint' from Bizet's The Pearl Fishers.

The "classical" piece is very close to the theme from Saint-Saens Symphony No. 3 (used in the film "Babe" - you know, the one about the pig.). Unfortunately the second part is a bit off the mark. Is that it though?

Thanks a lot for the replies. 'I could have danced all night' from My Fair Lady is spot on - knew I knew it.

Re the one I think is classical, I checked again and it was definitely played in 2/4 or 4/4 time, and not the waltz from Eugene Onegin.

Making a wild guess that the time signature might be 3/4 rather than 2/4.
Vaguely reminiscent of Tschaikovky: Waltz from Eugene Onegin.

The second one is the famous song "I Could Have Danced All Night". - Tom

I recorded a harp & flute duo at my brother's wedding and used Musipedia to ID some of the tunes I didn't know (and found a couple apparently not on which I'm going to add). Still stuck with these two:

The first is classical (I think):

 
 search Musipedia for this



The second is light, possibly a British song, but not sure:

Very grateful for any help.

How to insert music:

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.

How to post an audio recording:

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]

How to mark a thread as solved:

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.
