Question about the Crossroads

[Anvil]

Now I know everyone has seen the movie, "Crossroads", with the Karate Kid. Now there is this one part in the movie that has been bothering me for about a year now, and I can't seem to figure out which song it is.

Now after the Kid talks to his professor, and the professor tells him to "re-examine your priorities". Now what is this song that he's playing on his classical guitar. Its been bothing me for a long time now, because I remember learning it back when I used to have piano lessons, but with all the research I've done, and all the browsing through my Classical albums, I CANNOT find it.

If anyone could tell me, you'd be a huge lifesaver. mmm..... candy....

i believe its pagininnis 5th caprice? or was it the 24th?

 

[Chromatose]

I have this one coming up in my netflix queue soonish, I haven't seen it in a while so I can't remember it exactly, but if you still haven't figured it out next week I'll check it out.

but isn't paganini's 5th used in the duel? I don't recall that being the same as that other part.

 

[mReEtTaIlRsEkD]

Yeah the fifth is used in the vai karate kid duel.
Haven't seen it in awhile either though, don't remember the part you're talking about Tyler. Sorry.

I haven´t seen the movie, but I once heard the solo and its a part form the 5th caprice of paganini

 

[Anvil]

i already knew that Paganini's 5th Caprice was used as the duel, thats not what i'm asking about. Watch the movie, and you'll know waht i mean.

 

[lizard]

it's a duel, but in the movie, it's called "cutting heads," I think. an old blues term.

 

[Dying Freedom]

Turkish march, by Mozart?

 

[Anvil]

I'm not talking about the duel guys, I already stated that. and its not the turkish march.

HAY GUYZ I THINK ITS TEH PAGNINI CAPARICW 5 U NO PAGNINI THEI VIOLININS CHECK OUT THE DUEL

[deathstrike from hell]

i know what youre talking about. towards the beginning, and hes playing a classical acoustic. still not sure on the song, although it just sounds like an arrpeggiated scale of some sorts

 

[Manbient]

I haven't seen the movie in probably 8 years, but i remember liking that piece too, i can recall exactly that part... EXCEPT for how it sounded haha... maybe tonight i'll rent it and see if i know the piece. I think i do...

 

[Anvil]

remember, its the part AFTER he talks to his instructor in his office. NOT the classroom part.
