    A perfect example of a slow, jazzy standard that is beautiful to the ears, not that difficult to play, and suitable for performing as the snow falls outside your window. Bravo!

    Note: there are notation errors in bar 31 that remain in the video but are fixed in the music sheet download. Chord symbol for the 3rd chord should be C13. At that point the LH should play D natural (not D flat). Last chord in bar, RH should play B natural (not B flat). Apologies!

      Also, measure 36 RH downbeat, bottom note of the chord you play is a G, not the written A. Don't know which is correct, just thought I'd point out that discrepancy in case the sheet music happens to be incorrect.
