Hi everyone! I just realized that I don't have this style in my collection... Shame on me! I tried to find ii on d-o-o.de site but... no luck.
I would appreciate if some one who has this style can share it with me... THANK YOU!

I'm surprised no one answered you!

The song is popular and recorded in many ways. Michel Legrand is the composer. Won the Academy Award for best original song. It's listed in Americas Greatest Music in the Movies 1968. And can be found in AFI's 100 years 100 songs. Lead motive in The Thomas Crown affair.

I have a style in my CVP 709 which I use. Movie ballad. Tempo 78.  It Is included in the Multifinder original file. I suppose it is also in other Yamaha KB's. On my sheet music Rock or 8 beat is suggested as a rhythm.

If you like to do a multitrack recording - this CVP-tutorial might be of help. And you can follow the advice of altering the piano voice so it cuts through the background music.
