Louise - Armand Muth

Here's a favorite tune of mine rendered here by the wonderful and prolific Playrite artist, Armand Muth.
Playrite player piano roll 5666, dating to approximately 1929. Piano used courtesy of Joel Cluskey.

I forget what a nice calming tune this song has. Great post.

I love it too. The mellow piano is a good combination I think. Thank you!

[@minimalizman]

Your piano sounds great, too!

I just saw this comment! Unfortunately it's not my piano, but that of a friend...I'm just glad to have someone who was so kind to let me use it and post these videos! One day...

This is a great advancement: the lyrics are very clear, and they make for such an emotional song. I'm happy this man is happy with Louise, but he's so happy with her that he hears her name quite literally EVERYWHERE 😂 _What an innocent guy..._

[@rowanbelt3612]

To be completely honest with you, I have no idea why the lyrics are clearer on this one 😂 anyway, thank you for your comment :)

@@rowanbelt3612 No problem 🤣 What luck we both have!!!

[@rowanbelt3612]

@@peternewseterforever just curious, have you been working on composition? You haven't posted lately.

I love this one, the first time I heard it was on a recording by Lionel Hampton with Stan Getz but it was at a much slower tempo (a jazz drag xD).

[@rowanbelt3612]

Glad you like it Piotr! It's interesting how songs seemed to gradually slow down after the 20s.

@@rowanbelt3612 Yeah, things got more slower and more focused on harmonic detail and minute phrasing nuances.
