I loved the soundtrack to The Farewell but I must confess that i’m disappointed the credits didn’t mention Beethoven, Bach (I think) and others (the wonderful rendition of Abide in Me in Cantonese). I hope the composer didn’t intend to take credit for the music of others. The lack of mention allows those without requisite knowledge to mistakenly credit the composer with ideas that didn’t originate with him. The adaptations were wonderful and well-performed. Not crediting the source material is like hip-hop, drop the needle sampling. Stolen genius. How could the producers of an otherwise excellent film miss that detail? I watch the end reel of nearly every film I see. I’m probably not the Lone Ranger here.
Do you happen to know the name of the classical piece Billi plays on the piano in the scene at her grandmother’s apartment?
Why doesn’t the sound track include the song “without you” and the final song (unidentified) in the credits
Confused about Senza Di Te relationship the song “Without You” by the Welsh group Badfinger? Credits?
Senza Di Te (Without You)
Written by Tom Evans (as Thomas Evans) & Pete Ham (as Peter Ham)
Performed by Fredo Viola

Does anyone know the title of the song that plays when the credits are rolling. It is a VERY familiar tune and I can’t place it. I think its a classical piano piece
The first song in the credits (Without You) was written and originally sung by Harry Nilsson. But I think you’re trying to identify the music after Without You. It’s driving me crazy; I know the tune, but I don’t know where it’s from. I think it’s Bach.
It is a Beethoven Sonata – Pathetique
I think it’s Without You by Bread
You can now hear the official soundtracks on Deezer , Spotify and Apple Music, including Major Lazer s Que Calor featuring J Balvin El Alfa. Plus, you’ll hear the complete soundtrack, including a debut song from Flume, when FIFA 20 launches worldwide on September h.
The song at the end is an acapella version of Nocturne in E flat by Chopin.
