Welcome to Solo Standards for Piano: Eight Elegant Jazz Piano Arrangements
On this page you’ll find lead sheets with chord symbols and video recordings of each of the arrangements.
- the versions marked as “lead sheet chord symbols” have the chord symbols drawn from the lead sheets in the appendix. In many cases, these chords will not exactly match the chords of the arrangements.
- the versions marked as “true chord symbols” strive to list the chord symbols implied by the piano arrangement. Since these arrangements are complex, there is not one definitive “correct” way to name these chords, and you might find yourself disagreeing with some of the choices.
- the versions marked as “both chord symbols” have both the lead sheet chord symbols and the “true” chord symbols stacked atop one another. These could be useful for analysis.
