A Little Romance theme by Vivaldi |

Georges Delerue had a distinct compositional and orchestral style that is easily recognizable. His music was deeply influenced by Vivaldi and other French composers of the Renaissance period. No where is this more apparent than in his score for A Little Romance.
In 1979 Delerue won an Academy Award for Best Music-Original Score for A Little Romance, but the word “original” might be in question. The popular theme music for the young lovers was not composed by Delerue but rather by Vivaldi. It comes from the "Largo" movement of Vivaldi’s Concerto for Lute, Violins, and Basso Continuo in D Major. That said, it was an instant top hit when the film was released and is still popular today. Unfortunately Vivaldi was not given credit on the album, so here we are helping to set the record straight.
