ah reminds me of the soundtrack of the Korean drama Winter Sonata ❤️

لا يعرف اني اكتب وعيناه تطاردني علۑ سطور دفاتري وانه القصيدة التي تخدرني من الوجع  ولا يعرف اني كيف افكر فيه حتۑ وانا اقطع الطريق متجاهلة السيارات المارة واشارات المرور هو لايعرف انه المرئي في احلامي وانا المنسية علۑ رف المكتبات وطاولة المقهۑ وحيدة اسامر ظله

Song From A Secret Garden

Love Theme from Romeo and Juliet, composed by Nino Rota for Franco Zeffirelli's film in 1968. The song based on this theme is called "What Is A Youth" in the album.

This has been covered so many times, as an instrumental by Henry Mancini in 1969, and as a song called "A Time For Us" by numerous artists. Lana Del Rey also did a very nice cover with a different chorus called "Old Money" in her album "Ultraviolence".

The instrument is a Kawai VPC1 controlling a Nord Stage 2, using a Bösendorfer sampled grand piano with some delay effect, sampled mandola and orchestra strings.

Updated on Feb 26 with a better take.

Nino Rota - Love Theme from Romeo and Juliet (A Time For Us) [piano + synth]

I am now presenting the strings acoustic version of "Thinking of You", the 2nd track in my album in progress "Sleep, My Boy" (2024). In it, my idea is to collect only this and another track, "Sleep, My Boy", but each of them will have a full, electro-symphonic version as well as 3 acoustic versions.

The track was composed in GarageBand iOS spontaneously in the early morning of 19 September 2024 and mixed and arranged in Logic Pro later on during the same morning. It was released here on SoundCloud on 11 November 2024.

The composition was inspired by my recently-born gorgeous grandson, while he was far away from me for long, travelling with his family. Apart from the full, electro-symphonic version (https://soundcloud.com/alexander-mihailov-96713983/thinking-of-you), released on 19 October 2024, it also has 3 acoustic versions - the initial one for piano and the subsequent ones, respectively, for synths (https://soundcloud.com/alexander-mihailov-96713983/thinking-of-you-synths) and for strings (here), as tracks coming later in the same album.

The artwork cover for the track as well as for the album uses a photo I took on 3 July 2024 that I cropped and annotated in Mac OS Preview on 17 August 2024.

HAUSER - Song from a Secret Garden -

Hello. Finally, a Yanni piano cover from me; since I'm a huge fan of Yanni. This is the HARDEST Song I've learnt in my life! Took me more than a YEAR to get this song right! It is Completely played by Ear. This song is my most favourite Yanni song. Yanni is my inspiration; the one who made me into the pianist I am today. I used the original song in the background, so that I can follow the tempo; so you can hear me trying to synchronize myself haha; oh and also to not make it sound so plain. This is a Nearly 7 minute song so the risk of making a Single Mistake is Very high. I know I made a mistake in the 2nd verse after the bridge; but I don't care, too lazy to re-record it all over again. I recorded this for more than 6-8 times -_-  So yeah, favourite, comment, download, etc! Thank you! :D
