Another month, another ballad...
As a relative newcomer to this amazing Forum I was delighted to be invited by Di to come up with a suggestion for a ‘September Song’ , so here it is
‘Stardust’ composed in 1927 by Hoagy Carmichael and interpreted in the years between then and now by countless musicians.
Sincere thanks to Chris for his generous provision of the dots and backing track and also for his patience when I don’t fully understand transpositions, keys etc...
So here is Septembers Ballad of the Month. Did I mention it is ‘Stardust’ (4 bar intro, 16 bar verse and x2 32 bar chorus) and a nice sedate 65bpm?
‘Stardust’ is considered one of the most recorded songs of the 20th century and before anybody says we did that recently in ‘another place’, I didn’t 🙂 and the world is waiting for more interpretations, so let’s all add to this amazing body of work. September only has 30 days, let’s get stuck in and good luck....
Enjoy

p.s. Having looked at the dots I think I should have stuck with 'September Song' ;}
