Piano Legend Teddy Wilson plays Smoke In Your Eyes

[@TimothyGondola]

This is my first time transcribing certified jazz legend Teddy Wilson. Sheet music trivia (first to answer correctly gets PDF): the first two bars of measure 12 is outlining what mode?

[@user-dt4yj5kz5u]

Mixolydian? No idea

[@ryanpitasky487]

melodic minor?

[@ryanpitasky487]

specifically Bb melodic minor?

[@smellypanda4887]

That’s Lydian right? Sharp 4th?

[@loganslansky4282]

Is it Lydian Dominant (fourth mode of the melodic minor scale?)

[@Magnet12]

Really nice. I love the fact that you’re transcribing these. I love the nostalgic 1940s vibe, I’ll be learning this one for sure

[@nickk8416]

Yes, that was the inimitable Liberace. Beautiful arrangement.

[@RC32Smiths01]

Wonderfully done man. Teddy is an absolute beast!

[@TimothyGondola]

Indeed he is!

[@RC32Smiths01]

The best, master

[@r1p2m32]

Thank you! Beautiful work!

[@nailsamitov8576]

Nice variant.

[@pianobar-bartoszsobczynski1321]

Sounds a lot like a Gershwin prelude. Any albums of Teddy you could recommend for further listening? Thanks in advance. Great listening to brighten my Monday mood.

He had an album of solo stuff in the 60s called "With Billie In Mind" on Chiaroscuro that I recommend.

[@charlesperforms]

there's an album called Teddy Wilson the Keystone transcriptions that I like

[@drewmfie]

everything he ever made for verve

[@tukoperez5713]

We’re is the transition Imi want to buy

[@connorhayes2374]

Lydian Dominant (Simpsons Scale)

[@MarimaruXD]

No modal thinking during those periods, though....
