Tunes I Know, Tunes to Learn...

The following very small list is what I feel comfortable with. I know these melody and harmony:

  • All The Things You Are 
  • Autumn Leaves 
  • The Shadow of Your Smile 
  • Here’s that Rainy Day 
  • Alone Together 
  • The Girl from Ipanema

 I even arranged the first four above into chord-melody tunes. The last two in the list did not quite lend themselves to that.

This largest list is what I need to work on:

  • My Funny Valentine
  • Stella by Starlight
  • All of Me
  • Alice in Wonderland
  • Blue Bossa
  • Green Dolphin St.
  • Misty
  • A Nightingale Sang… 
  • Round Midnight 
  • Night and Day 
  • My Favorite Things 
  • How Insensitive 
  • Desafinado 
  • Wave 
  • Giant Steps 
  • Naima 
  • Take the A Train 
  • Summertime 
  • Have you met Miss Jones? 
  • When Sunny gets Blue 
  • Satin Doll 
  • Body and Soul 
  • Just Friends 
  • Autumn in New York 
  • Black Orpheus 


 You just might be able to look at the list above and tell that I am a Jobim fan =)
