Hello all,
Since four days now, the melody I try to reproduce below is
haunting my brain. Don't know how i picked it up.
It's a popular classical piece which I have heard many times,
from the romantic period and as I remember it, for string
orchestra.
But I can't find out what it is. Tried some of the 'find a
melody' sites, no succes.
6/8 (or maybe 3/4)
- = continuation of previous note by 1/8
| A-- G#-- | A---- B | C-- B-- | Bb----- |
| Bb-- A-- | G----- | F-- G Bb A | Bb----- |
Can anyone identify this ??
Could it be the "Valse Triste" by Sibelius (op. 44 from 'Kuolema')?

Apparently there's also a piano version by Sibelius himself (I didn't
know this):
