Bill EvANS

transcribed and edited by

Pascal Wetzel
from Bill Evans' recordings

FOREWORD

To make these leadsheets, I have used, whenever possible, the following material: Bill Evans'
original leadsheets, published sheet music, and transcriptions from recordings.
Some compositions have been recorded several times and were part of the Bill Evans Trio's reper-
toire over a period of time. In this case, the leadsheets generally follow the latest recording to show the
evolution of the tune and the maturation of the artist.
To point out the harmonic richness of Evans' music, I chose to be more precise than usual for a
leadsheet, adding counterlines, codas, extensions of chords as well as some passing chords and alter-
nate chords (Bill Evans would often simplify the chord changes for improvisation).
Each tune is written in the original key, but please note that some compositions such as "Letter
to Evan" and "Song for Helen" were played in several keys during the same interpretation. Transposition
was one of Evans' favorite devices to add interest and contrast.
I would like to dedicate this work to the memory of the great artist that Bill Evans was.

Pascal Wetzel
August 23, 1996
Editor's Note: In addition to Pascal Wetzel's leadsheets, this book includes seven
unrecorded manuscripts composed between 1965 and 1967 as well as lyric versions of ten
of the tunes which appear side by side with the originals. Bill wrote lyrics for two more.
This fake book would not be complete without "Blue In Green" dating from Bill's time
with Miles Davis (copyright by Miles) and a tune from the TRO catalogs, Denny Zeitlin's
"Quiet Now", performed and recorded by Bill Evans throughout his career.

Many of the Bill Evans tribute recordings by musicians all over the world as well
as the compositions written in his honor have been listed in previous issues of Letter From
Evans now on the Internet. As we go to press, Jean Yves Thibaudet, the French classical
pianist, has just finished recording an Evans tribute album, and Bernard Maury's Bill
Evans Piano Academy announces its opening as of October 1, 1996. This academy has
flexible courses of study on three levels ranging from 5 to 20 hours per week spread over
33 weeks a year for both jazz pianists (professional or amateur) and teachers as well as
those with classical training interested in jazz and musical improvisation. For further
information please contact the school at 6 rue Damiens, 92100 Boulogne Billancourt,
France, Tel: (331) 46 214095 Fax: (331) 46 21 74 54.

Quarter notes on [Al may be anticipated. For solos transpose each section on the ascending circle of Sths:
1st [Al starts on Cm7, 1st rnJ on Gm7, 2nd [Al on Dm7, etc., to last chord of last chorus: Fmll - then D.C. al Fine.

Note: "Sugar Plum" is built on the descending circle of Sths. We are unable to locate the publisher so cannot print it.

Recorded Jan. 21, 1963 for Verve. This is part of an LP in which I play 3 pianos dubbing 2 tracks to a first which in this case was an
improvised ostinato figure similar to that I have notated. The 2nd track was primarily a melodic improvisation over the ostinato and the
third track a "commentary" on the first two.
