Product Description

Her Greatest Charm is a piano solo arrangement of the 1901 hit pop song by Carrie Jacobs-Bond, which was originally a ballad for voice and piano. I have turned this short 20 seconds ballad into a 2 minute boogie-woogie. I created a LH boogie pattern which continues the same for the long introduction with various pulsed chords over the top. The first section continues the same one chord boogie pattern and adds the 8 bar melody, with slightly altered rhythyms and articulations, above it, this section being repeated. For the second section I take the same 8 bar melody, back to the original lyrical rhythm and articulations, and reharmonize with changing chords still in the boogie pattern. Whimsical fun and driving energy! 2 page score; 1:45 minutes This piece is also found in my book, Carrie Jacobs-Bond, Popular Songs 1900-1925, a collection of 51 of her songs I have arranged for piano solo, which is also available on this site.
