Yes what you hear is a tune in E major (C#, D#, F# and G#) but on the video he is playing only the white keys which corresponds to A minor or C major.

I LOVE this song!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The beggining reminds me of Beethoven's moonlight Sonata.

Victor and Victoria are a perfect match. Both of them are shy, sweet, sensitive, and just want to get away from a society full of close-minded people. Poor Victoria's been trapped up all her life by neglective parents and Victor's never been appreciated for anything he's ever done in his life. I'm glad they ended up with each other at the end <3

i luv Victor's solo

I'm not a pianist. But hey, other than the arpeggios, they clearly tranpose the piano by a semitone the very moment the song starts. My guess is that Danny oviously already had the song done the moment they started shooting the scene, but the arpeggio was placed after the main shooting, hence the unnoticed misspitching.

@meginmd No, it's Danny Elfman.
Yes, very cool solo.
As for the question of the opening arpeggio:
This is one of my favorite "easter eggs" in the movie. Visibly, you see Victor playing a C diminished arpeggio - all minor thirds, very eerie and Victorian sounding. What you hear, instead, is a major chord.
This was definitely done on purpose. It's consistent with the style of the entire film: Visibly dark, depressed, and "dead". The lighter side of the film comes out in the character, conversation, and audio.
