(This Is) A Fine RomanceA Rivendell String Quartet Arrangement - The Pop Standards SeriesFred Astaire and Ginger Rogers made ten motion pictures together: nine for RKO, and one for MGM. Everybody has their favorite, and mine is \"Swing Time\" (1936). Ohio State University professor and Astaire expert John Mueller has cited \"Swing Time\" for possessing \"the greatest dancing in the history of the universe.\" The dance sequences for \"Swing Time\" (e.g. \"Never Gonna Dance\") are considered by dance writer Arlene Croce to be the high point of their art. Dorothy Fields and Jerome Kern (with a little help from Robert Russell Bennett) produced a magnificent score which included \"Pick Yourself Up,\" the Oscar-winning \"The Way You Look Tonight,\" \"Waltz in Swing Time,\" \"(This Is) A Fine Romance,\" \"Bojangles of Harlem,\" and \"Never Gonna Dance.\" As a special treat, at the end of the film Astaire and Rogers sing shortened versions of \"A Fine Romance\" and \"The Way You Look Tonight\" simultaneously. As can be seen from this current arrangement, the two songs fit together beautifully!Like us on Facebook: www.facebook.com/rivendellarrangements.

"2018 Chamber Music Contest Entry"

A Rivendell String Quartet Arrangement. The haunting ?Lara?s Theme? was composed for David Lean?s epic romantic drama Doctor Zhivago (1965), and netted film composer Maurice Jarre his second Academy Award for Best Original Score (he had won previously for Lawrence of Arabia in 1962, and would win again in 1984 for A Passage to India).

This beautiful instrumental melody took on a life of its own when Paul Webster added lyrics to make it ?Somewhere, My Love? in 1966. Ray Coniff and the Ray Coniff Singers had a US Top 10 hit with the same year, and it has remained a popular ballad ever since. This well-known piece is wonderful for preludes and receptions.
