...redirecting to American Novelty music, does anybody here own "Joe Davis' Piano Modes"

Piano_Modes.JPG

or the Clarence Williams "Negro Classics No.1" folio, i only own a poor copy....

or thinking at Lothar Perl, there was a solo published by Bregman, Vocco & Conn, i would be happy to see other piano solos published by this publisher...

Hi Adrien,

If you do a search for Lothar Perl in this forum you will see that a lot of his works have already been uploaded and should still be available for download.

Hi tobbyi,

i know that there were several Lothar Perl pieces uploaded to this forum, i was just refering to the Bregman, Vocco & Conn publisher, not
to Perl as composer. His "Symphonic Flight" published by Bregman was an example, i think there exists much more Bregman publications in the Novelty idiom
which would be of interest here : )

Adrien,

yes, you're correct.

Hello to all,

i continue the start of tobbyjj's "Be-Bop" uploads. he was so kind to give us access to three pieces from the "Be-Bop Piano Solo Series":

Benny Carter's: Be-Bop Boogie

and

Charlie Parker's: Ornithology and Yardbird Suite.

Does anyone has Parker's "Confirmation" and "Moose The Mooche" of this series?

and also Erroll Garner's "Fantasy in Bop" and "Little Bo-Bebop"?



What i share today are five Be-Bop piano solos from another series published in the 40's by J. J. Robbins & Sons Inc. and printed and sold by the Bosworth & Co. Ltd in the UK.

There are three colaborated piano solos by Dizzy Gillespie:

Anthropology (arr. Steve Race), 1948

Oop Bop Sh-Bam (arr. Frank Paparelli), 1946

That's Earl, Brother (arr. Frank Paparelli), 1948

Gillespie, Dizzy, That's_Earl, Brother, 1948 (arr. Frank Paparelli).pdf

one Ray Brown piece "Ray's Idea" (arr. Frank Paparelli), 1948

Brown, Ray, Ray's_Idea, 1948 (arr. Frank Paparelli).pdf

and one Monk piece "52nd Street Theme" (arr. Frank Paparelli), 1948)

Monk, Thelonius, 52nd_Street_Theme, 1948 (arr. Frank Paparelli).pdf

if someone has other music from this kind or the requested ones, please feel free to share it with us.


Happy new year
Bye
