Classical flautist, Gazzelloni plays the movie themes with little embellishment & only piano accompaniment, a beautiful tribute to his friend Nino Rota.

William Blake: Ah! Sunflower
Ah! sunflower, weary of time,
Who countest the steps of the sun,
Seeking after that sweet golden clime
Where the traveller’s journey is done;
Where the youth pined away with desire,
And the pale virgin shrouded in snow,
Arise from their graves and aspire;
Where my sunflower wishes to go.
