Wendy a nice ballroom style waltz on PSR 910 - 05/02/11 04:47 PM

This song is called Wendy. I don't have any information on the song the composer or who the orchestra is that recorded it. I heard it plyaed by the DJ at one of the ballroom dances I play at. All he could tell me that it was a track on his list called Wendy. He was kind enough to make me an mp3 copy so here is my rendition. I am not the best at playing by ear so I may have missed a couple of chords. I transcribed the music also using band in the box for notation.

Just lovely. I'm always searching for new waltzes and this is great. Thanks for including the lead sheet. If only I could play it as well as you!

If I'm not mistaken, Wendy is done by the Tony Evans Orchestra..

Thanks for sharing. I enjoyed that and I'm impressed that you transcribed it. Interesting key changes and chords for sure. I never heard this one. Does it have words?

Also what style did you use? I like the brushes.

Very nicely played, indeed, and a great style.

I appreciate instrumental music on the arranger as that is how I play as well.

Thanks for the treat.

Very pretty song and thank you for the printed version smile ...

Here is MY favorite song entitled "Wendy", by my favorite sax player of ALL TIME ... you can even hear the scratches from the vinyl in this one ...
