Chancellor’s Waltz is one of the prettier waltzes I know. It was written by Jim “Texas Shorty” Chancellor’s Dad.
It’s not easy, but there are quite a few Waltzes that are more difficult. And, as I tell my students, the purpose of a waltz is to be beautiful, not to be difficult.
I like how Dick Barrett said it, “When you play a waltz, you want to make people cry.”
Another home run, Vi. One thing I enjoy about this series is you periodically come up with a tune like this that I had completely forgotten about.
Thanks Nance, but really, how could you forget about a great tune like Chancellor’s Waltz??? 😉
I take a medication that effects my memory. It’s a side effect that I am willing to put up with because it helps the problem I am taking it for.
Gotcha. I’m glad I could jog your memory, Nance. 🙂
A beautiful tune well played.
Thanks, Johan. It’s a pretty tune for sure.
Excellent musical performance !
Very nice, i always liked playing this tune. I learned it from Jimmy Don
It’s a beautiful tune, and Jim “Texas Shorty” Chancellor can play a waltz like nobody’s business! (and just about everything else.)
