    Any of you remember the song "I Love Your Smile" by Shanice years ago with Branford Marsalis on sax? That song uses a very small portion of an old classical piece. If I recall correctly, it's by a famous composer, what's the name of the classical song? The sample appears at 2:44 in this youtube video clip just before Branford's sax solo.

    Not sure - sounds a bit like Ravel or one of those French composers of the early 20th C like Debussy etc. - but it's too short to identify really!

    It's short but it's such an identifiable part! I've heard it used in TV commercials and have heard it elsewhere as well, and I used to know what the name is.
