Italian songs

[Keith88]

"Al di là" (= Beyond) was a popular Italian song in the 1960s and is still a favorite in the Italian-American community. It was premiered in 1961 and was featured in the 1962 film Rome Adventure. It has a standard 32-bar ABAC structure. My arrangement includes a short tag ending.

A clip from Rome Adventure with Emilio Pericoli singing the tune (and a lovely young Suzanne Pleshette listening) can be found on Youtube. I play the tune with the Latin - Cuba: Bolero style at 100 bpm.

This is the first of five Italian favorites that I will be posting. I prepared the chord charts for these tunes after receiving a request to include some Italian songs in my playlist for a solo piano gig. "Al di là" and the others were well received, with many of the audience singing along.
