The Selfsame Song

A bird sings the selfsame song,
With never a fault in its flow,
That we listened to here those long
Long years ago.

A pleasing marvel is how
A strain of such rapturous rote
Should have gone on thus till now
Unchanged in a note!

But it’s not the selfsame bird.
No, perished to dust is he. . . .
As also are those who heard
That song with me. (Thomas Hardy)

In this video Francesco Libetta plays the Pizzicato Polka (Sylvia) by Leo Délibes.
Notice how he plays much of the main theme with one finger!
