Cavatina Movement 4: Barcarolle - Alexandre Tansman (1897-1986)
This is an absolutely wonderful song that John Williams recorded
when he was age 17. It is played very slowly and both the lowest
bass notes and highest treble notes for each measure are supposed
to be maintained for as long as possible (as are indicated in the
first few measures). It starts off very quiet and then when you
return to the first part of the song to finish it you should play
it through louder than before. It's fairly intermediate as some of
the chords are a stretch and getting the tone right is key. Also,
make sure to add lots of hesitations towards the end of each measure.
Good luck with this one.
