"Bella's Lullaby" Carter Burwell - Edward Cullen - Twilight - Piano Version
http://www.8notes.com/school/riffs/piano/carter_burwell_bellas_lullaby.asp
The introduction to Carter Burwell's theme for Bella's Lullaby from the film Twilight is in D major, but uses a G minor instead of the usual G major. The G minor is often with an extra E to make G minor 6
This sets up a slightly mysterious romantic atmosphere. Make a rocking back and two pattern out of these chords and you have a sound which could have been written by Schumann or Janacek.
Later when the main theme arrives we have moved into A minor, but the scale used is a bluesy scale.
