Ebony and Ivory...
Here are some common themes that you can explore:
I'm Old Fashioned
This years fancies are passing fancies
But sighing sighs, holding hands
These my heart understands
Gone With the Wind
Just like a leaf that has flown away~
All of Me
Why not take all of me?
Like Someone In Love
Lately, I find myself out gazing at stars,
Hearing guitars... Like someone in love~
Moonlight In Vermont
Telegraph cables, they sing down the highway,
And travel each bend in the road~
No recording more magical than Louis and Ella.
Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas
A Little Tear
The Sarah Vaughan recording of this is absolute magic, my goodness.
Dindi
Sky, so vast is the sky, with far away clouds just wandering by~
Where do they go? Oh I don't know...
Angel Eyes
'Scuse me while I disappear~ 🌫️
All the Things You Are Chord Melody
My first swing at chord melody! Love this tune even more on guitar.
Sonny Rollins – Oleo
Today I learned that this jazz standard is named after margarine. Yum!

Antônio Carlos Jobim – Once I Loved
