It's Fun to Play the Piano ... Please Pass It On!
Thank you, Andy! By the way, did you ever play anything from My Fair Lady and posted it in the Members Recordings subforum? For some reason I thought you had posted something, but cannot find anything right now.

Not yet, CA! (I'm currently obsessed with "What A Difference A Day Made," "The Day After Forever," and "From This Day Forward." )
Here's another rendition that's too good to pass up, since I've fallen down the YouTube rabbit hole:
Remember that row we had about the relative musical "worth" of the arrangements in the George Shearing Interpretations series? I ask you~~ does not this interpretation played by George Shearing sound very much like one of those? (I am not saying that he did not wax virtuosic in other offerings--I am asking, honestly and objectively, does not *this* version, above, sound "simple" (yet, beautiful) like those found in the 50s series?)

Yes I can't stand it when people refer to instrumental music as a song. I honestly cannot understand such an error in thinking.
Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy didn't care. Good for the world.
I don't believe that. The interest and novelty of the title "Songs Without Words" depends on the distinction. If he didn't care, the name would be absurd. As well call the pieces "Music for Piano using Black and White Keys."
