    SOFTLY, AS IN A MORNING SUNRISE


    By Dirk Laukens

    Softly, as in a Morning Sunrise was composed by Sigmund


    Romberg and Oscar Hammerstein II in 1928 for an operetta
    (a kind of light opera) called The New Moon. Artie Shaw’s
    recording of Softly (1938) brought the song into the jazz
    world and made it into the popular jazz standard it is today.

    In this guitar lesson,


    you will learn how
    to play the melody
    and how to
    improvise over the
    chord changes of
    Softly.
