FOURTH ANNIVERSARY POST

This month marks the fourth anniversary of this blog
which was started in August 2015.


During this time I am pleased to have completed the transcriptions of
 three of my favourite two-piano jazz arrangements. 
All three are highly energetic and creatively improvised.
These were first mentioned in earlier posts,
with a note that perhaps one day someone will transcribe them!
The transcriptions have been posted recently but individually.

We feature them again here in this commemorative post.


1. 'SWonderful
 Composed by George Gershwin.
Improvised by Dave Grusin and Chick Corea
in "The Gershwin Connection" Album
 





2. Cherokee
Composed by Ray Noble.
Improvised by Olaf Polziehn and Rossano Sportiello.






3. Sleigh Ride
 
Composed by Leroy Anderson.
Improvised by Stanley Collins.
