Just a run through of the form of this song from The Sound of Music. Many jazz musicians have done this as a jazz waltz. I thought I'd try playing the melody. (I'm not about to attempt an improvised solo on this without really knowing it better, not in F-sharp minor! I'm a bad enough improviser on keys I know! LOL!) Enjoy!
