Steel Magnolias, funeral scene

[Sid Humphreys]

I’m sure that Clinton can find the answer to this question but since I lost his email, I thought I’d post here. There is music played during Shelby’s funeral in the movie Steel Magnolias. Does anyone know the title of the music and where to obtain it? My partner plays violin and has been searching for it for some time!

Sid, no luck on this one, ☺

Georges Delerue, a good film composer with over 800 titles listed, had music published by most of the French music publishers. Due to the complications of copyright very few film scores are published in sheet music.

Remember it is illegal in the U.S. to make arrangements of any music under copyright without permission from the original holder of the copyright.
