The Prodigy Who Saw Into the Future – Lili Boulanger’s Piano Music

Now, all her scores for solo piano are available to Piano Street’s members. Read more

Help me name this song!

on: August 29, 2006, 09:05:46 PM

The opening melody goes like this, starting on middle C and going upward: C E G C E [back down to G] G C E, D F A D F [down to A] A D F, B D G D F (down to G) G D F, C E G C E G C E
I heard it in a movie but am unable to find it on the web after hours of searching. The voice is soprano. It sounds extremely familiar, and I'm sure most of you guys have heard it before. Any help would be awesome.
