Three new originals

12 year old Matt Luebbert submitted a new composition, his second, entitled Waiting For Snow. He cooked up a two part samba accompaniment for it so we added that to The Rhythms. I love the way that he ends the composition.

I also wrote two tiny things. I'm getting interested in harmony that uses the 7(#5) and 7(b5) chords. New 12/2/00 and New 12/15/00 exercise those ideas.

Lots of new chord progressions

 I went on a George Geshwin kick. Recently have added The Man I Love, Oh Lady Be Good, Embraceable You, Somebody Loves Me, and How Long Has This Been Going On?

Also new:

• Billy Strayhorn's Blood Count and A Flower Is A Lovesome Thing
• Kurt Weill's Mack The Knife
• Carolyn Leigh's Young At Heart
• Thelonious Monk's Introspection and
• Frederic Chopin's Mazurka In Ab Major, Op. 24, No. 3, Etude In G Major, Op. 10, No.3, Etude In Gb Major, Op. 25, No. 9, and the Etude in C minor("Revolutionary Etude"), Op. 10. No. 12
