What is the saddest piano song ever?
Well I think Loss of a Twin by Brine Taylor is sad but beautiful. It is in the film Eagle Eye which is a fantastic film. To add to this respondent: "The Swan" by Camille Saint-Saens, while originally written for cello, is also lovely on the piano. My personal favorite because Jacquiline duPres, one of the greatest celloists ever died of cebebreal palsy. When you play "The Swan," you can't forget what a great artist the world has lost, as in she, a young woman. I'm not ashamed to say that I cry openly when I hear it played.
