CINEMA PARADISO - LOVE THEME - duet for FLUTE and GUITAR

CINEMA PARADISO - LOVE THEME - duet for FLUTE and GUITARFor Classical or Acoustic GuitarDerek Hasted writes "This fantastic theme, Tema D'Amore, was written as an integral part of the film Cinema Paradiso.Ennio Morricone and his son Andrea rightly received a BAFTA award for the gorgeous soundtrack music.My arrangement captures the four “verses” that feature in this piece - each verse maintains the same thematic material but the accompaniment becomes more involved and with a thicker texture, before the piece fades away again. The guitar accompaniment is styled on the piano solo score, but tailored here and there to fit the guitar like a glove.The key here isn’t the same as the original, but it fits right into the “sweet spot” of the flute’s pitch range and allows for a guitar accompaniment that can use open strings to improve the sustain. Unlike other arrangements, this has plenty of space and few finger gymnastics, so the gentle movement of the original is easy to reproduce.I've also added a second flute part, based on the YouTube performance by Petra Benešová and Jiří Straněk which adds variety, but which is more demanding for the Flute player. The guitar part is unchanged. I also have an arrangement for two guitars which moves the melody between the guitars as the piece progresses.I hope you enjoy playing this piece!"
