Beautiful, thanks! Who wrote that one?

Vladimir Cosma; it is a movie theme, and a good movie too. Adrien Moignard and Benoit Convert have done it as well :

Thanks for the info Tom. Interesting. Is there a lead sheet floating around or does everyone just pick it out my ear?

It is from the movie Le Chateau De Ma Mere, which is available on DVD and worth watching. Coincidentally the story was written by Marcel Pagnol who also wrote Jean De Florette, another great movie that featured in the soundtrack that haunting theme from Verdi's La Forza Del Destino which is another tune that lends itself well to the GJ style - Gary Potter did a great version a long time back.
