Learn To Play I Remember You: Diana Krall

English: Johnny Mercer, New York, N.Y., between 1946 and 1948 (Photograph by William P. Gottlieb) (Photo credit: Wikipedia)

I Remember You is from the Paramount Picture The Fleet's In. The song was written by Johnny Mercer in 1942, along with the music by Victor Schertzinger. Recorded by Jimmy Dorsey in 1942 and the Slim Whitman sings it like a classic country song.

It's played in the Key of G with 4/4 time signature. Moderately, not too fast. Here it is on YouTube.

G             Bm7b5   E7b9    Am

Monday Music Quote: Vladimir Horowitz

The great pianist Vladimir Horowitz once said:

"Perfection itself is imperfection."

"Played percussively, the piano is a bore. If I go to a concert and someone plays like that I have two choices: go home or go to sleep. The goal is to make the piano sing, sing, sing."

Changing Your Piano Speed

Tempo is the speed of any piece of music. Just like driving a car and seeing the 45 M.P.H. speed sign, it is the same for Tempo words in music.

At the very top left hand corner, on the beginning page of your sheet music, you will often see a word that tells you how fast or how slow to play a particular song. Sometimes you will be asked to slow down your speed of playing in a particular passage.

Usually you will find that these tempo words are written in Italian. Here are some of the more common Italian words you will discover in music. It does help to memorize most of these words. Having flash cards to quiz yourself is a very good idea.

Slow Tempo Marks:

Adagio (play with ease)
Largo (very slow and broad)
Lento (very slow)
Grave (heavy and solemn)

Medium Tempo Marks:

Andante (a moderate, graceful, walking tempo)
Andantino (a little slower than andante)
Moderato (a moderate tempo)
Molto (very)
Larghetto (somewhat slow)

Fast Tempo Marks:

Allegretto (lively and quick but a little slower than Allegro))
Allegro (cheerful, fast and quick)
Vivace (lively and brisk)
Presto (very fast)
Prestissimo (very, very fast)

Right in the middle of a piece, you will see that the composer has decided he wants you to slow down. Look for a new tempo marking at the very beginning of a new section. Here's what to look for.

Gradually Getting Faster:

Accelerando (becoming gradually faster and abbreviated accel.)
Stringendo (quickening)

Gradually Getting Slower:

Ritardando (becoming gradually slower and abbreviated rit.)
Ritenuto (held back)
Rallentando (becoming gradually slower)
Rattenuto (holding back and slowing down)

When you slow down at the end of a phrase of music or a particular section of a composition, you will notice at the start of the next section a new word, a tempo. This means to go back to the original tempo. It is like slowing down while driving a car because you see a sign that says, "Speed Reduced Ahead.", and then going back up to the regular speed limit once again.

Now your piano practice sounds playful and energetic while observing accelerando. Sometimes your moderato walking tempo sounds smooth dance-like. Time completely changes within a song all because you changed speed when playing the piano. The pace of a piece of music becomes alive because you have observed tempo marks with expression. Well done.

I Get Along Without You Very Well: Diana Krall

Portrait of Diana Krall at Toronto Indigo Chapters bookstore for in-store concert and CD signing (Photo credit: Wikipedia)

The song, I get Along Without You Very Well (Except Sometimes) was written in 1938. I love the moderate tempo Diana Krall plays in the Key of Bb. I've listed the chords below along with a chord breakdown. Listen to her voice and see her perform in Paris on YouTube.

I've been collecting Diana Krall music and songbooks for quite some time now. She is an amazing, gifted musician. Do you have a favorite song of hers?

    F7              Cm7       Ebm6    Bb       Edim7    Cm7 F7
The thrill of being sheltered in your arms, of course I do. 

      Cm7            Ebm/F       Bb  Gm7 Cm7 F7
But I get along without you very well.


Bb6                  Cm7  F7/C  Cm7/F F7 Bb      Edim7    Cm7 
I've for - got - ten you, just like I should, of course I have;

 F7       Cm7   F7/C F7                Cm7   F7/C     Cm7
Except to hear your name, or someone's laugh that is the same.

     F7                             Bb Eb/Bb Bb
But I've forgotten you just like I should.

What a guy!    What a fool am I 

    Cm                Ebm/F       F7       Bb Bbmaj7 Bb7 
To think my breaking heart could kid the moon.

          Eb6                D7         Gm
What's in store?   Should I 'phone once more?

          C7                     C7/F F
No, it's best that I stick to my tune.


Bb6             Cm7 F7/C Cm7/F F Bb    Edim7    Cm7 
I get along without you very well, of course I do;

Except perhaps in spring...but I should never think of spring,

    F7                CM7      Ebm6     Bb  Eb/Bb  Bb
For that would surely break my heart in two.

10 Quick Songs About Diana Krall

All for You: A Dedication to the Nat King Cole Trio (Photo credit: Wikipedia)

You Call It Madness (But I Call it Love)

This song was written in the 30s by Con Conrad, Gladys Dubois, Russ Columbo and Paul Gregory. It's played in the Key of G with 4/4 time signature. From the album, All For You (1996).

            C              Cm 
I can't forget the night I met you, 
 D7     G       B7      E7
That's all I'm thinking of; 
    Am       Bdim       D7
And now you  call   it madness, 
     G     C6  G
But I call it love. 
 
 
            C             Cm
You made a promise to be faithful 
D7  G       B7    E7
By all the stars above; 
Am           Bdim     D7 
And now you  call it  madness, 
  G          C6  G  C6  G+  D7   
I still call it love. 
 
Bridge:

 Fm6         G7      Fm6            G7
My heart is beating, it keeps on repeating 
C       E7       Am
For you constantly. 
Dm6             E7      DM6          E7
You're all I'm needing, and so I'm pleading, 
C            Cm      D7
"Please come back to me!" 

           C                 Cm
You made a plaything out of romance! 
D7   G       B7      E7
What do you know of love? 
Am               Bdim     D7
That's why  you  call it madness, 
    G      C6  G
But I call it love.

5 Best Blogs To Follow About Jazz

I just wanted to give a shout out to Elly Brown for contacting PianoDiana regarding their new infographic (JAZZ BENEFITS). I found it to be a great resource and very informative. It's true that music, especially Jazz, does effect the brain. Presently I am teaching an adult student who received a brain injury from a golf ball. She is making remarkable progress and is so inspiring. Children with autism are responding to rhythm with boom whackers and simple piano patterns.

I am passionate about this genre of music and if you missed some former posts on the subject of jazz piano, you might want to visit http://ladydpiano.com Music does stimulate the brain and provides better overall health to the individual!
