The music is by Mozart, specifically, it’s the Adagio (or part of it) to his Piano Concerto No. 23 in A, K. 488. The Adagio is the only piece that Mozart ever wrote in the key of F-sharp minor.

It’s also one of the rare tasteful, even beautiful, TV commercials. Good on Air France.
Heavenly – tasteful – thank you Air France! If only America could emulate commercials with the beauty and elegance you created…
How beautiful!!! This adagio L’envil by Mozart goes straight to my heart. The first time I saw the ad, I started crying….the music just gets you….and I could not remember where I heard this piece. This ad should be awarded for beauty and for class. I believe this commercial is the only ad that has class…..Gudrun
