One of biggest mysteries in Jazz is that Waltz for Debby isn't any more waltz after the 1st chorus

You are one-hundred-percent right! It turns out to be a syncopated two-by-for piece of delightful jazz improvisation.
@natemantle59335 жыл бұрын
I think a waltz can also describe a feeling though. A waltz is traditionally associated with a happy feeling, so perhaps "waltz for Debby" is simply pointing toward that sort of idea, and not insistent on being a legit waltz in terms of time feel. I guess what I'm trying to describe is similar to how people say "let's rock and roll" even when they are not about to play rock music, or even music at all. Phrases evoke feelings.
Listening to Bill Evans is like immersing yourself in a world of delicacy and emotion, where each note is a story in itself.

So I think it's great that people are just rediscovering Bill Evans, and I want people to rediscover Bill Evans. I think he's a great artist, and I think more people should listen to him and respect the beauty that he was able to create.

Romanticism as well. Let's not forget that he started out a classically trained, playing from the lykes of Beethoven and Rach; you can hear the romantic touch/phrasing present even in his jazz improvisation.
Saw him three times in NYC. The best was at the Vanguard. He was the most transformative pianist since Bud. Sadly all the young lads playing those fourths today have no idea who the progenitor was. I have twelve of his LPs, but no needle for my turntable.

I am glad our digital world let's others discover the impact of his music.

@danielmathew72242 жыл бұрын
Dude this is just amazing, the writing is just masterful, especially the chord progression. The chord progression is based off such basic musical concepts combined to create a complex sound. For example, the very beginning where he descends are poly chords starting on G/A and going down chromatically, but the chords go up in the circle of fourths staring on A. I will definitely use this in my improvisation but it creates such different colours and is beautiful. It’s hard to imagine how intelligent Bill Evans was. One of the best, if not the best Jazz pianists.
@ElRonMaltan8 ай бұрын
Yah! regarding that progression, and the "chromatic" descent, which it totally is, but.. as you also point out, it's actually a "circle of 4ths" progression. I came across it myself as the "falling 5th" sequence (which, spelled in the opposite direction is obviously rising 4ths - I love the beauty of nature as expressed through musical harmony!!) Anyway, you can go on improvising on falling circle of 5ths forever, and with some tonal variation and chromaticism, it can be incredibly flexible in where it goes (like 12-bar blues!). Anyway, if I were teaching someone about jazz harmony - tonal harmony in general- after simple scale chord tones, I would suggest hammering this progression (falling 5th = rising 4th = descending 1/2 step every second chord) for all itt's worth. Which is a lot! I love your observation about the harmony and progression!

From my wife and I meeting Bill several times we thought of him as a friend, and to me, my knowing, there is a God. I was a Viet Era draftee, and VW Beetled 4 hours from my Germany posting to Basel 1989 to meet him. Huge venue, yet my wife and I were the only 2 in the 1500 capacity hall. We met the group outside , where Bill shared that he played piccolo in the US Great Lakes marching band, and he would after hours train to Chicago jam
