BEAUTY AND THE BEAST
Piano Solo Cover Theme, from Walt Disney?s Pictures ?Beauty and the Beast?

Music by Alan Menken
Piano arrangement by Gabriele Filippi

Taken from the 1991 American animated musical film produced by Walt Disney Feature Animation and released by Walt Disney Pictures, this piano solo arrangement penned by Italian musician Gabriele Filippi is conceived to grasp the most romantic fold of the renowned fantasy film Beauty and the Beast.

Followed by various and successful theatrical and musical adaptations, this theme is iconographically recognized as the most representative of that film. Recognized by many as a love ballad par excellence, the original version, also subtitled Tale As Old as Time, has seen several covers over time, even by well-known artists.

Here in this cover theme, Filippi aims to capture the most permeating ink offered with the wise musicality of the original authors: Alan Menken for the music and Howard Ashman for the lyrics. As for all his musical scores, Filippi offers a detailed arrangement, complete with grace notes, dynamics, ligatures, pedal lines, and tempo variations. All elements designed to direct even the most inexperienced performer towards a pragmatic expressiveness, but which will certainly also offer further inspiration for even the most experienced pianist. The score is completed by the vocal line and chords so that it can also be useful in the accompaniment of a singer.

'Tango Fantasy - Alto Sax & Piano'?: (Duration: 2.12) Higher Intermediate to the Advanced student.
SAMRO, CAPASSO.
Tango, is a passionate union between two dancers. The musical effect that I worked on was exactly that, the passionate union between two musical instruments. Throughout the piece, I endeavored to keep the central theme of the Tango rhythm playing out between the two instruments. I know that at some points I have moved away from the Tango idea, which is why I included the word fantasy in the title. So? for most of the piece, the Tango theme is foremost, and whatever may or may not be Tango material is indeed a fantasy, an idea, a leaning toward the real thing, that is the Tango in Latin Style.
