Five Foot Two, Eyes of Blue (Has Anybody Seen My Gal?) Stride piano for mere mortals! In the 1920s, legendary jazz pianists such as James P. Johnson and Fats Waller built on characteristics of Ragtime to develop an even more virtuosic and popular genre that came to be known as Stride Piano. Awe inspiring to listen to but difficult to play, the technical demands of authentic Stride Piano often include huge left-hand leaps, chord voicings that span a 10th or more, highly inventive improvised right-hand runs, and lightning fast tempos; all formidable challenges that can elude even highly accomplished pianists! Thats where this new arrangement of a golden oldie comes in. By converting some of its more taxing obstacles into more playable figures, the ever-popular Stride Piano sound is made more accessible to pianists possessing merely reasonable technical skills and/or average handspans. In short, this arrangement is easier to play than it sounds while retaining essential Stride piano traits and even a few tricks of the trade such as unusual syncopations and novelty cluster chords that will enthrall your listeners. Level: Late intermediate and above.Length: 2:40.Pages: 5 including cover.
