Has anybody played it...it's so beautiful... smile.gif

I really want to play it but I don't have the music sad.gif

What grade is it?

I've got this in a great book of piano music called "The Big Book of Movie Music" published by Hal Leonard but I'm sure it will be in other compilations (or possibly even as separate sheet music?). The version I've got is not too bad for difficulty. A few times it goes into treble clef in the left hand and there are a few treble clef ledger line notes to contend with but otherwise it's ok.

Thanks - how bad is not too bad for difficulty?

I'd say someone of approximately grade 3ish could manage it. It's just the ledger lines (in both clefs) and changing from bass to treble clef in the left hand which make it more complicated. It is a slow piece though.

The rest of the book varies in standard though but it has some great pieces in from films like Indiana Jones, Lion King, Beauty and The Beast, Forrest Gump, Star Trek, Ghost, Breakfast at Tiffanys, etc... It's a big book smile.gif

Looks like I'd be able to manage 'on golden pond' then! Well at least this way I should be able to play it quite nicely...

Just noticed your signature (sorry didn't notice it before!) and this particular version should be fine.

Hope you enjoy it smile.gif
