I know that the song A Whiter Shade of Pale is based on a Bach piece but can anyone tell me which piece, and if there is a piano transcription of it? I used to play the melody on reed organ years ago, but never knew the chords for accompaniment.
Its a lovely piece and Id love to practice it!
Cheers
