Venice is a city in Italy. It is considered beautiful, and all of it is a World Heritage Site. They have gondolas, which are rowing boats that carry tourists. The gondola is driven by a gondolier.
The folk song sung by the gondolier is called barcarolle.
Barcarolle is also found in classical music, in the form of music set to the rhythm of the gondolier's stroke while rowing.
One of the most famous barcarolle is 'Belle nuit, รด nuit d'amour' from an opera by Jacques Offenbach. It has been used brilliantly by filmmaker Roberto Benigni in his film 'Life is Beautiful'. We are going to see the usage of this music in the film. The same music across two distinct emotions.
