Mona Lisa for intermediate piano
Originally a ballad in four quarter time, this arrangement segues into a jazz waltz with a jazz solo--a nice improvisational section with lush, layered harmonies.
Accessible enough for any intermediate performer, yet incredibly rewarding for even the most accomplished pianist. Phyllis Love's instrumental arrangements for jazz piano remain true to the original melodies, with inventive harmonies and dynamic rhythmic patterns perfect for solo players! Each is a tasty addition to your show set, whether it's a classic show tune or a Standard from the Great American Songbook.
