| Added by bernard-dewagtere, 26 Jun 2011 Funiculì, Funiculà is a famous Neapolitan song written by Peppino Turco and set to music by Italian composer Luigi Denza in 1880. It was composed to commemorate the opening of the first funicular cable car on Mount Vesuvius. Six years after "Funiculì, Funiculà" was composed, German composer Richard Strauss heard the song while on a tour of Italy. Thinking that it was a traditional Italian folk song, he later incorporated it into his Aus Italien tone poem. Denza filed a lawsuit against Strauss and eventually won. Strauss was forced to pay him a royalty fee every time the Aus Italien was performed in public. (Wikipedia) Sheet central : | Funiculì, Funiculà (15 sheet music) | | |||
