The Duke
Can you say infectious?
I can’t think of a better word to describe the opening melody to Duke Ellington’s Don’t Get Around Much Anymore. The melody is catchy.
The first time I played this tune, it was while accompanying a female singer. Prior to a gig, she handed me the music sheet and said, “follow me.” Then she sang the first few melodic tones and we were off and running.
This tune permits some improvisation and I took liberties at about 1:20 in the video. You’ll hear it.
One or two listens to the Duke’s melody and you will be humming and whistling this all day.
September is National Piano Month. I hope you liked the tune. Enjoy!
