Queen – Love Of My Life

$11.90$16.90

Queen – Love Of My Life Sheet Music for String Quartet is a song by the British rock band Queen from their 1975 album A Night at the Opera. The ballad was written by Freddie Mercury, for Mary Austin, Mercury's ex-fiancée and best friend. After performing the song in South America in 1981, the version from their live album Live Killers reached number 1 in the singles chart in Argentina and Brazil, and stayed in the charts in Argentina for an entire year. Freddie Mercury wrote it on the piano and guitar first, and Brian May rearranged the song for acoustic 12-string guitar for live performances, also lowering the key by a minor third. May contributed occasional guitar phrases to the original recording and played the swooping harp glissandos by pasting together multiple takes of single chords. The song is an example of Mercury's familiarity with rubato phrasing, showcasing his classical piano influences, notably by Chopin and Beethoven.
