speak to me softly of love

The Los

Anyone know this tune? It's French and you can hear Howard Alden playing it in the beginning of "Sweet and Lowdown" when Emmett Ray plays the opening gig. I would especially appreciate a solo version or at least a place to start looking. Thanks.

Hi

The exact name of the tune is "Parlez-moi dAmour".
I have the music sheet of the song, sung by the french
female singer Lucienne BOYER.
Give me your e-mail address and I will send you a scan of it if you are interested.

Best regards

François RAVEZ

Can you possibly send me a copy of that sheet music as well? Unfortunately this song did not make it in Howard Alden's sheet music book for Sweet and Lowdown.

Thanks!

Me too Francois! I'd love a copy also!
Trust your doing well!
Best, No! Your the best!

Here it is, a beautiful tune with a 18th century feeling. This was the biggest hit of Lucienne BOYER who even sang in the USA.

There is a transcription of the recording from the Woody Allen film that a member of the french forum, I think, made. I believe I found it there, in any case. You can find it here: https://sites.google.com/site/posglov/tablatures
