Mariage d'amour

Introduction

Mariage d'amour(English: Marriage of Love) is a piece of French solo piano music, composed by Paul de Sennevillein 1979, and first performed by the pianist Richard Clayderman from his album "Lettre À Ma Mère" in 1979. Later, pianist George Davidson performed this piece of music from his album "My Heart Will Go On" with a slightly different version.This version is sometimes erroneously attributed to Frédéric Chopinas "Spring Waltz" because of an upload on YouTube with the wrong title, which had reached over 34 million views before finally being removed.As of May 2018, several new copies with that erroneous title are available on YouTube, and one of them has reached over 30 million views.
