Romanza Soundtrack
It’s always helpful to listen to something being played before you learn to play it. Listen to the track below to become familiar with both parts before you learn how to play Romanza.
The second part of this music is in the parallel key of E minor. Compared to the first part, it’s a little more difficult to play due to some finger stretches that you need to master while holding down bar chords. Here is a link to the audio track of the entire piece that I made a few years ago.
