The falling leaves drift by the window The autumn leaves of red and gold I see your lips, the summer kisses The sun-burned hands I used to hold Since you went away the days grow long And soon I'll hear old winter's song But I miss you most of all my darling When autumn leaves start to fall
Stupid question: but how does one "learn how to play" from this. Does anyone have a link or advice on how to use a Backing Track to play Autumn Leaves? Am I supposed to be finding the melody from the written chords? thanks!
Paul Banas It might be worth trying a Real Book if you want to get in to this sort of thing. It’s in E minor in there but it’s not too tricky to chuck everything up a tone and a half.
Stay away from the Real Book if you want to play real music, jazz is music, not a set of changes written down on a book. So I suggest that you find a version of autumn leaves that you like and transcribe the melody, after you understand the relation between harmony and melody, add your own stuff and make it sound however you like. The more versions you listen to, the more you'll understand how it works. It's normally played on G minor so the real book is an awful resource that will only confuse you and stop you from making actual progress.
almost ! the crossed out circle is a shorthand way of writing 'half-diminished 7th,' which is another way of saying m7b5 . a fully diminished 7th chord, symbolized by just a circle with no line thru it, would have a Gb instead of a G natural like the 'half-diminished' chord. that would be incorrect, but it's not what's written or played here.
This is all ive ever wanted. bass n drums
+Craig Mitchell I have to admit, that's a good one xDDD
The falling leaves drift by the window
The autumn leaves of red and gold
I see your lips, the summer kisses
The sun-burned hands I used to hold
Since you went away the days grow long
And soon I'll hear old winter's song
But I miss you most of all my darling
When autumn leaves start to fall
Best key 😎✨✨✨
The chromatic run from Gm7 to E7 is especially awesome.
Yeah, I love me a tritone sub. :D

Yay
It’s really nice. I want to play this music and alto saxophone. "Which key is for alto saxophone?? "Please let me know..!!!!!
A minor for alto saxophone, also you can play C major over it an it will sound right.
It is actually G major or E minor for alto
@@christianp4123 pico pal que lee
So does it go A(x2) then B, then C, then just repeat?
Yes, that's it!
How did you create this backing track?
Help me practice

Only for the chart.

Bass is not in tune but at least it has the correct changes.
well A dim is not correct...Am7 b5 is...
Two ways to spell the same chord...
