Hi!

In Spielberg`s Schindler`s List, there`s a scene in the beginning where Oscar Schindler is dancing with a woman, and the orchestra is playing a beautiful song.
Does anyone know what song is that?

If someone could help me, I`d appreciate it very much. Thanks in advance!

Hi John,
isn`t oscar Schindler just sitting at a table. He doesn`t dance with a lady, does he? Anyway it`s been a long time since I`ve seen the movie so I`m not sure. I can`t remember which song the orchestra plays either but I here`s the soundtrack of the movie. Hope this will help you out

That`s right, really, even if you failed to notice. It`s Por una Cabeza. It was in Scent of a Woman as well, but I first heard it in S`s List and to-tally fell in love!

yeah, the song at the beginning its a tango called "Por una cabeza", written by Carlos Gardel. It also appears in "True lies" at the beginning and end of the movie. Its downloadable with winmx, i downloaded it from there

that is the right name of the song, both of them, but the movie song plays differently, i think they use different instruments or something because it does not sound the same, it`s a little bit different, even the soundtrack sounds different from the one in the movie, if anyone finds one that sounds just like it or one played by an orchestra that sounds more like it send me a message.thanks!!
