    I couldn't watch any Dudley Moore stuff for years after he passed. Too broken hearted. Brought a lot of joy.

    I recently visited Dudley's grave in New Jersey to pay my respects as a long time admirer of his talent, and as a fellow pianist. Such a shame how that disease robbed him of his one true love and had to finish his days suffering with the fact that he could no longer play piano. I miss him.

      I miss him too. Next time I'm in The States, that's something I should do too. I'm contemplating making the trip from the UK to the Las Hadas Resort in Manzinollo, just to be able to sit at the bar where he played that beautiful piece

    Such sweetness and sorrow emanate in this extravagantly beautiful composition, elegantly performed by a phenomenally gifted man that is so deeply missed. If you're not smiling through tears right now then you're not a hopeless romantic and have never seen Dudley perform this piece in "10" ~ Forever young, forever beautiful, forever remembered and forever missed you are loved. Thank you.

THIS PIANO PIECE IS TIMELESS, MOVING, ROMANTIC AND SAD ALL WRAPPED IN ONE! (RIP) TO THE LATE GREAT DUDLEY MOORE. YOUR MUSICAL GENIUS AND COMEDY IS PRESERVED FOREVER ON FILM AND THE INTERNET FOR FUTURE GENERATIONS TO ENJOY AND WONDER AT! SIR, I NEVER MET YOU, BUT YOU TRAGICALLY LEFT US FAR TOO SOON, MUCH TOO SOON. LIKE OTHER GREAT MUSICAL GIANTS OF THE 20TH CENTURY WHO ARE NO LONGER W/US; (RIP) TO ALL THE LATE GREAT ARTISTS OF THE PAST: THE LATE FRANK SINATRA; THE LATE BOBBY DARIN; THE LATE DUDLEY MOORE; THE LATE ELVIS PRESLEY; THE LATE KAREN CARPENTER ETAL. YOU MUSIC IS TIMELESS AND WILL TRULY LIVE FOREVER IN FILM AND THE INTERNET! THANKS FOR THE GREAT MEMORIES TO ALL YOU DEARLY DEPARTED MUSICAL ACTING STARS! (RIP)! MR. GARCIA IN SF, CA.

    Thank God... after all these years. To see him play this so beautifully (and exactly as he did in the movie) is a joy. Brilliant arrangement and musical structure to this song. What a neat mixture this brings. The melody is pop in nature (at least for 1980) while the lush chords bring almost a jazz component.... And all the while there is a hint of the classical. Man, this is the good stuff.

    'It's Easy To Say' is one of my favourite numbers by one of my all time favourite composers - and to have it played by one of my favourite pianists is a priceless bonus! I treasure this recording. Henry Mancini and Dudley Moore - how I wish they were still with us.

    I spent a week with the dear friend of Dudley Moore, Barbara Moore (no relation), who was so respected by Dudley, as a neighbor, friend and as a mutual pianist/composer/arranger, that her gave her his prized piano. There it stood, the centerpiece of her wonderful grand room, in Bognor Regis, UK.They actually were neighbors for some time in England. She got very misty eyed as she told me about him, from a personal point of view. "His wit, and talents were matched only by his kindness to everyone". She told me they would play together quite a bit. I'll never forget seeing that piano, and hearing of his personality.

    The bar scene w Dee Wallace watching Dudley play piano , gives me goosebumps every time .
    His playing was so great and I truly believe in all her films , this scene where she looks at him so lovingly is the best acting of her I’ve ever seen in her other films .
    It shows sometimes “ less IS more “.
    I also love when “his ol friend Don “ says to him , “ for what it’s worth , I like YOUR songs .
    Oh god. Love all these bar scenes .
    I can just feel what she feels in this scene , it’s so emotional on her end .😢

    Hi EdWaldrup,
    Thank you so much for sharing this. What a beautifully sad piece. In your description you put that very nicely. We did indeed lose a "gentle genius".
    It wasn't until recently that I discovered his musical talents. I always loved him and appreciated his playful acting roles in comedies like Foul Play, Arthur and from my teen years the movie Like Father Like Son. To this day I think he was genius in that role. The board meeting/ chewing gum with a cigarette scene alone is worth the price of admission. lol
    I had no idea he was also a gifted composer and pianist. Being a fan of Christopher Cross and the film Arthur I stumbled across this live performance with Dudley and Christopher performing Arthur's Theme together. ruclips.net/video/DWQb-vMb8kA/видео.html Wow, such a talented pianist!
    It's so sad to read that in some ways Dudley had similar struggles with alcoholism and drug addiction similar to his character Arthur. My heart broke when I read that he passed away of pneumonia, secondary to immobility caused by progressive supranuclear palsy. So sad that we lost such a talent and as you so nicely put it, gentle genius. I'm just grateful we have his music and movies that make us laugh, smile and in this case, even cry a little bit.
    I just read that his last words were... "I can hear the music all around me." I don't know about you, but I find a tremendous amount of comfort in that and he makes me smile, yet again. :)
