I found Marion's Theme on eBay, and will post it here with the hope there are more of you out there that might do the same. Thanks in advance!
I have figured out Marion's theme by ear, but can not wright it down. Never learned how ...wish I knew! I've been looking for the Raiders March. Can you play it without not knowing how to properly read music? Is it for piano?Violet Indy said:I would love Marion's Theme! Is it piano sheet music?
I will post my "The Raiders March" piano sheet music in return. It's an easy one to play.

Rocket Surgeon said:It IS piano, I will post it tomorrow during the day. I look forward to hearing your opinion, and others as well.
Which movie is your Raiders March from? I've seen different versions. Store purchased? Published by?
Looking forward to that! Thanks!
By all means, please do. I've been trying to figure out the tune from "Curse of the Jackal/Spring Break Adventure" where Indy & Frank hitch-hike to Mexico (the tune with the whistling) and will post the guitar tablature when I'm done.Rocket Surgeon said:I found Marion's Theme on eBay, and will post it here with the hope there are more of you out there that might do the same.

As the title Page says this is from Raiders, if there are any other music related questions please ask. I encourage you to post your own Indiana Jones Music. When , (if) you do please include sources...Thanks again!Rocket Surgeon said:I found Marion's Theme on eBay, and will post it here with the hope there are more of you out there that might do the same.
