More about this title

Why we love this

This standard has endured because it sits beautifully on the guitar; the TAB format makes it accessible to players who read tab fluently but may still be building staff-reading skills. The melody is memorable without being saccharine, and the harmonic movement rewards thoughtful voicing choices.

What to expect

Optimistic and gentle, with the kind of melodic grace that makes you want to linger over each phrase. The tune carries a quiet confidence; it doesn't demand flashiness, just honest musicmaking.

Who it's for

Guitarists comfortable reading tab who want to tackle a jazz standard repertoire piece. This works equally well for fingerstyle performers, jazz ensemble members doubling on guitar, or anyone building a collection of accessible but musically substantial standards.

How to get the most out of it

  • Experiment with fingerstyle patterns to bring out the melodic line; the tune sings naturally when you let the top notes ring through the changes.
  • Pay attention to chord substitutions if they're notated in your version; jazz standards often offer room for reharmonization, and understanding the original voicings first gives you a foundation for interpretation.
  • Balance accompaniment and melody so listeners follow the story of the tune; resist the urge to overshadow the lyrical quality with excessive technical display.

How to use it

Program this for a jazz guitar recital, a mixed instrumentation standards night, or as a study piece in a jazz combo or guitar ensemble setting. It works well alongside other Great American Songbook selections and pairs naturally with vocal performances of the same tune.

Skills your students will build

  • Reading guitar tab accurately while tracking melodic contour
  • Navigating jazz chord changes and understanding functional harmony
  • Fingerstyle technique and independent voice management
  • Interpreting standards with appropriate phrasing and rubato
