The Melody from a Dream
A composer heard a complete melody in a dream – strings, winds, even percussion. He woke up, wrote it all down, and called the piece “Dream Night.” When it was released, it became an instant classic of film scores.
Years later, it turned out that the exact same melody appeared in an obscure work from the 19th century – one that was never publicly performed. Was it a musical reincarnation? Or had his subconscious mind unearthed a lost harmony?
