i was asked to prepare a few songs and amongst them there has to be one which is a dark/depressing theme. (hope u guyz understand what i mean)
anyone know of some?
thx

Try raindrop prelude
...maybe also Finlandia that`a pretty dark and depressiveish
But i would like also some sugestion

oh! also some people seem to think that debussy`s "claire de lune" (or something like that...-_-" )but anyway there wrong at least that`s what i think

debussy depressing?!?!?!?!gimme a break,liszt`s sonata is pretty depressing or tchaiko`s octobre..any of rach`s work!!!

thx for the suggestion, but i was wondering who you mean by "rach".
also, u guyz know where i can find their sheet music?

Barber`s Andante for Strings is depressing... I heard it live at a symphony once and I nearly started crying.

er, sorry, I meant Adagio, not Andante.

check on the free sheet data base on this site;look for the archives.

(er..Jon i said it wasn`t depressing ok so....could you...well you get the rest) bTW you can take a look at sheetmusicarchive.net if there is anything you want
or http://www.rowy.net

my mistake!!sorry!!

you ought to try Prokofiev`s Op4 No3. It`s nicknamed "Despair", and it`s really really eerie and unnerving.

Try out Liszt`s Nuage Gris. Very easy best and one of Liszt`s most depressing.

rachmaninoff`s prelude in C-sharp minor,and the first movement of beethovens moonlight sonata, chopins funeral march(the famous one, i dont feel like looking up the opus),and as someone else said look at rachmaninoff`s stuff a lot is pretty dark and gloomy. theres plenty more out there just look around.

thxs everyone for your input and suggestions

Im a little late but Albino - Adagio .... Thats a depressing one in my and many others opinion..

you can`t forget about Tchikofski`s (sp) Pathatic symphony or whatever it`s called. The one that was written like just weeks before he died
