Product Description:
Howard Hoagland Carmichael's very first profession was lawyer, but lucky for us, he gave it up to focus on music.

Includes 25 songs in all, plus a foreword from his son, Hoagy Bix Carmichael.

You, too, can play more than just "Chopsticks" when friends are gathered around the piano, maybe in a nostalgic mood. This playbook of Hoagy Carmichael tunes will coach you to play 25 old favorites. Most kids were familiar with "Heart & Soul" in the early 50's & could team up with a friend playing "Chopsticks" ~ what a hoot! Harmony & beat equaled homegrown talent then, and a bit of knowledge about ragtime & jazz yesterday is sure to impress folks.
Hoagy said about the days of the 2nd World War: "There was little I could do but give the world something to hum!" With this 'songbook' you can hum your heart away, & you'll have the wonderful lyrics, too. You really can't miss; Hoagy's son "Hoagy Bix" (named for Bix Beiderbecke, called "the very first great white jazzman" & influential in Hoagy's early development as a composer) wrote a special foreword for this publication in 2001. For Reviewer mcHAIKU it is truly exciting to share this discovery.
