I´ve noticed that the composer of "Romance de Amor"  :  V Gomez, isn´t credited on "Light + Shade" as composer of "Romance" !
True, Mike has made his own arrangement of the song, but he hasn´t written it !
"All songs written by M Oldfield"

Hopefully it´s a mistake, otherwise it isn´t nice !

;)

Kevin Peek, session guitarist and ex-Sky guitarist also recorded a piece based on 'Romanza', on his solo album, 'Guitar Junction'.

You mean, no news that Mike doesn´t credit other composers ?? :O
Even if it´s a well-known piece, the original composer should be credited.

Ps. I only use Tiger, Mac OSX

:D

Hey, I bought two of KP's albums: Awakening, and Life and Other Games, but I've never seen _any_ of his albums available on CD. Do you have any details?

Alright guys,

the original composer is "Anonymous".

The song is credited as "Romance" or "Romance d´Amour".

The sheet music to which I learned the piece on guitar doesn´t credit anybody neither does Andres Segovia on his CDs.

So relax! :/

Anonymous means that no one knows who is the composer. Its unknown. So, crediting a song as anonymous, its different to do it as Julian Bream or something...
 
I think Mike should have been more honest on this one...

You might be able to get Kevin's other CD's via other fans on the Sky website!

You're right - it's not Mike's composition.

My French fiancee noticed that 'Romance' is a new arrangement of the soundtrack to a French film.

Maybe like some traditional tracks, he didn't have to credit it.
