... with some of the instrumentals that have been posted ... recorded on my pa900, IMHO this may be the most beautiful song ever written.

It may show 34+ minutes but it is 5 minutes long, and when I played it back there was nothing after 5 minutes ...

Tony, Great job with that, I also happen to know that’s one of your favorite’s ( I think Lydia’s too).

Stay warm up north I hear you folks have single temps there with snow and ice. Great weather for staying indoors and creating such a great rendition!

What style did you use?

Steve ... I believe it was the 'Cool Bossa' , but I changed some of the voices and pads ...
One of the things I like to do with songs like this is set the following voices RH1 PIANO, RH2 VIBES, RH3 SOFT JAZZ GUITAR, and set the "Ensemble" to BLOCK ... it gives that George Shearing sound ...

Yes, it was 1 degree when I got up at around 7AM with a wind chill of -21 ... great day for keyboard, soup and a movie with the fireplace going later ...

Excellent! I really love the way you developed it, change of instrumentation, and nice improves too. Did I hear a “ So Nice/Samba Song” quote in the sax solo?

Tony I remember you liked the Shearing sound., it shines thru on your playing/setup. I think the style “cool bossa” is very appropriate for the weather you’re having smile Maybe it should be called “very cool bossa?”

Tony, I love it. You started the style and did not let it get in your way. Then you played what is in Tony’s heart.

This song is telling who you are. You escaped the melody and then came back to it. NICE!

This is one of my favorite song both on keyboard and guitar, John C.
