Product Description

This intermediate-level oboe and piano arrangement of "Funiculì, Funiculà" by Luigi Denza includes the original Neapolitan lyrics beneath the oboe line to support phrasing and expression. Composed in 1880, with lyrics by Peppino Turco, the piece was written to celebrate the opening of the Mount Vesuvius funicular railway. This version brings the operatic energy of the original into a clear, lyrical adaptation for oboe, with a supportive and expressive piano accompaniment.

Oboe solo with intermediate piano accompaniment
Original Neapolitan lyrics included beneath the melody
Balanced phrasing and moderate rhythmic complexity
Simplified harmony that preserves musical energy
Ideal for recitals, lessons, or cultural performances
A clear blend of technical playability and expressiveness


About the music:
Written in 1880, Funiculì, Funiculà was composed by Luigi Denza, with lyrics by Peppino Turco, to commemorate the launch of the Vesuvius cable railway. The song gained worldwide fame and is often misidentified as a folk tune due to its traditional sound.


About the instruments Oboe & Piano:
The oboes expressive tone and agility are well-suited for the operatic style of this melody. The piano accompaniment adds rhythm and harmonic depth while supporting dynamic phrasing.
