After this short intermission, Mooooo : “Sackcloth and ashes were used in Old Testament times as a symbol of debasement, mourning, and/or repentance. Someone wanting to show his repentant heart would often wear sackcloth, sit in ashes, and put ashes on top of his head. Sackcloth was a coarse material usually made of black goat’s hair, making it quite uncomfortable to wear. The ashes signified desolation and ruin.”
I have a good one. The pickup note to the melody starts on the the 5th note of the scale and jumps up a perfect 4th interval(which starts the melody). From there it chromatically skips downward with an embellishment here and there to start over again. It's from an Opera, I believe because whenever I hear it I have images of overacting and way too much make-up. The first three notes of each measure are more pronounced than the others. You can figure out the melody by just playing these three notes if you get the timing right. It's a very famous song, I just don't know the name.
Ding Ding Ding....we have a winner....Yes, that is correct. I had to listen to it to make sure because I never knew the name or the composer, or the opera.
CORRECT ,Mike! Just a throwaway question to keep the thread from going stale. BTW, you win an imaginary trip to an imaginary island in the South Pacific, where dwells an imaginary seductress. (howdya like them apples?)
Sounds like the perfect get-away...I like them imaginary apples. I'm gonna need some time to think of a song I want to know the name of, it shouldn't take long, but if anyone wants to start one up, go for it.
This waltz, written by the Waltz King, has a melody that starts out by lazily ascending a major triad, repeating the root note and perfect 5th of the triad.

Would the title include both a color and the name of a river?

How about a song who's intro is in a minor mode and switches to the parallel major for the verse and back to the parallel minor for the chorus repeat......................
