Violin Solo - Level 2 - Digital Download SKU: A0.582239 By Lady Gaga. By Andrew Wyatt, Anthony Rossomando, Mark Ronson, and Stefani Germanotta. Arranged by Leo Silva. Film/TV,Pop. 2 pages. MP Sheet Music #191526. Published by MP Sheet Music (A0.582239). Shallow is a song recorded by American singer, songwriter and actress Lady Gaga and actor and director Bradley Cooper for the film A Star Is Born. Released on September 27, 2018, the song is an Oscar, Golden Globe and 2 Grammy winner, in addition to reaching number 1 on the Billboard Hot 100. It is the lead single from the soundtrack of the work. For Gaga, Shallow was a pivotal moment in A Star Is Born, as it described the dialogue between Ally and Jackson. The song was written through Ally's point of view, with self-conscious lyrics asking each other if they were content to be who they were. Like a power country ballad, Shallow sees Gaga and Cooper swap verses gradually and move towards the final chorus with a belting performed by Gaga. The recording is interspersed with the sound of the audience and the applause of the audience. Shallow was premiered on Beats 1, broadcaster Zane Lowe's show, during an interview about the film.
