The Old Tune is a free translation of Robert Pinget’s 1960 play La Manivelle (The Crank) in which Samuel Beckett transformed Pinget's Parisians, Toupin and Pommard into Dubliners, Cream and Gorman. Its first radio broadcast was by the BBC on 23 August 1960. Barbara Bray directed Jack MacGowran (Cream) and Patrick Magee (Gorman). For the unspecified old tune played by Gorman on the barrel organ Beckett selected The Bluebells of Scotland, suggested by the bank of bluebells mentioned near the start of the play.

  • Il vecchio motivetto (in lingua inglese The Old Tune) è un radiodramma scritto nel 1960 da Samuel Beckett come libero adattamento de La manivelle di Robert Pinget. Il testo fu pubblicato dalle Éditions de Minuit di Parigi in versione bilingue insieme a quello originale nel 1960. La versione italiana, di Camillo Pennati, in Film seguito da Commedie brevi, presso Einaudi nel 1985. La resa in italiano non può riprodurre l'effetto di parlata tipica irlandese che Beckett ha voluto dare ai due personaggi, ribattezzati con cognomi tipici dell'Irlanda. Una versione inglese apparve anche in "Evergreen Review", V, 17, marzo-aprile 1961 e fu ripresa più tardi anche in teatro (in Italia da Carlo Quartucci). (it)
