Ain't Misbehavin'

Transcribed from Fats' original performances recorded over a twelve year span, the height of his pianistic powers, these most famous of his solos are a challenge to learn, yet playing them is extremely rewarding and worth the effort. Whoever digs into this book will certainly become a much better pianist in the process. The stellar pianist and foremost exponent of this style, Dick Hyman, has endorsed this collection and sings its praises: Paul Posnaks' transcriptions of Fats Waller's playing will certainly be a standard source for students of stride piano. The notation is accurate, practical to read, and an important reference. Waller was a considerable songwriter as well, and his hits are all represented. [Advanced]

  • I would like to let Mrs. Lienhard know that I think her musical arrangements are fantastic! I am studying Jazz in Tampa, Florida, and am currently studying some of her arrangements. My teacher thought that Mrs. Lienhard's arrangements were a cut above, one step beyond, George Shearing's works! Hey, I've loved Shearing's recordings and transcriptions for years! She is definitely, one step beyond! I just wanted to let you know! -Tom L.
