I have finally finished my collection of transcriptions since a post I made last month. Sorry it has taken so long but the job was bigger than I imagined. Below are transcriptions (2 handed where indicated) of Knives Out, River Man, Sky Turning Grey, How Long Has This Been Going On, Anything Goes, Someone To Watch Over Me, Tres Palabras, I’ll Be Seeing You, and Exit Music For a Film. The reason I have made 2 handed transcriptions of certain lead sheets is because Mehldau is so creative with his left hand, therefore making it necessary to document how he supports melody.
