Its melody emerged as music for Roland Petit's 1945 ballet Le Rendez-vous, with Jacques PrĂ©vert's French words arriving around the song's cinematic life as Les Feuilles mortes. Johnny Mercer's English lyric is an adaptation rather than a literal translation. The French song appeared in the 1946 film Les Portes de la nuit; Mercer's later English version then helped the melody travel into recordings and the jazz repertoire, while retaining its wistful falling-leaf image. The selected piano score may treat the tune as a ballad, a straight song or a jazz vehicle. The history explains the work's two-language identity; the edition in front of you determines its harmony, introduction and rhythmic feel.
