Music #43 - Jazz W.I.P.

Piano Styles in Transition

The jazz enthusiasm was then booming. A great many jazz musicians became famous. For musicians, jobs were relatively plentiful for both soloists and section members. Jazz styles (swing as well as piano, as below) became richer.

Earl ‘Fatha’ Hines

* Ridin' And Jivin'  (I like its rhythm.)

Art Tatum

* Tea for Two   
         (cf. adaptation to cha cha by Sarah Vaughan)

* Sweet Lorraine

         (cf. by Nat King Cole)

* How to Sound Like Art Tatum

Erroll Garner

* The Lady is a Tramp

          (cf. by Frank Sinatra & Ella Fitzgerald)

* My Fair Lady Medley

          (cf. the spoony admirer 'on the street where you live') 
     --- Oh, am I in love with this My Fair Lady movie.
