The Quiet Revolutionary of the Piano – Fauré’s Complete Piano Works Now on Piano Street

In the pantheon of French music, Gabriel Fauré (1845–1924) often seems a paradox—an innovator cloaked in restraint, a Romantic by birth who shaped the contours of modern French music with quiet insistence. Piano Street now provides sheet music for his complete piano works: a body of music that resists spectacle, even as it brims with invention and brilliance. Read more

First thought -- It was written specifically for that video.

It doesn't sound like much to me. Piano, string instrument, and some low-pitched sound effect in the background.... until the end.

Email the video uploader and ask?

Don't think it is written only for that video cause i've already listened elsewhere. By the way I contacted the uploader but he didn't answer...

Hm.  It might be some free stock music then.  If it's used other places, they might know.  If you know who they are.  Haha.

Just set up a fake email account.  Contact the owner of that vimeo video and tell him your going to sue him for copyright infringement on the music.  Ask him to prove it's all legit. Haha.  He might write back then.

Hi there.... it's sounds very much like it is a piece by film composer Barrington Pheloung.

Here's a link to a piece called "The Farmhouse" from the movie Hilary and Jackie that sounds like it MIGHT be a snippet from it...(the you tube video is bizarre, not from the film) but you'll get the idea of the music. 



it could be something from any of his other works though... I'm a big fan of the Inspector Lewis series on PBS that Pheloung composed the music for,  and there are similar bits of music in that series as well.

Remembering the great Maurizio Pollini

Legendary pianist Maurizio Pollini defined modern piano playing through a combination of virtuosity of the highest degree, a complete sense of musical purpose and commitment that works in complete control of the virtuosity. His passing was announced by Milan’s La Scala opera house on March 23. Read more
