Ok, so when we got here, there were some tall ship races going on. As we stood in the harbor watching the ships parade away, one ship (MIR, I think) had the most beautiful exit song. I don't know the name of it, except that it is a majestic sounding, familiar opera. That evening, with the song fresh in my head, I tried to figure out the name of it. No such luck.
Fast forward to today, I am sitting in the cafeteria eating lunch, and this same song is playing on the radio. Now I am determined to figure it out!
Here are some clues that I can come up with:
Opera
A duet sung by a man and a woman
Familiar tune
Majestic
Then I went online to a virtual piano (I'm in my office, no actual piano in here), and plunked around until I could figure out the notes to the most familiar part...matched with paint brush, here is what I could come up with:
I don't know what time or key the song is in. Sorry.
In case my artwork is hard to read, here are the notes:
GBACBG...and then up an octave...GF#DGF#DBD
Anyone? Anyone? Help me out, I'm losing my mind!
PS: Aunt Linda, send me an email if you know it!

Laura hanson, I knew there was a reason I liked you!
Glad I could bring it to light! :)
I'm not ashamed to say that I've listened to the song about 20 times since yesterday evening.
