classical/pop crossover
on: September 12, 2006, 11:28:03 PM
In the late 60's there was a top 40 song called "Groovy Kind of Love" which was based on a tune from a sonatina, either by Clementi or Diabelli. Can anyone make that connection for me? I'm using a choral arrangement of "Groovy" with my high school chorus, and I'd like to play them the tune in its original state.
