Rather Be Silly Than Sad (Embrace The Chuckle) Piano Solo - Digital Sheet Music

This is my own composition. It's in my trademark style of slightly ragtime, slightly stride piano and bit of something of my own. It's a fun tune in a swing style designed to make you smile and tap your toes. I take it through the keys of Eb, E and F. I don't include dynamics, pedal markings or fingerings preferring to leave these up to the discretion of the individual pianist as no two piano teachers ever agree on such things.If the 10th intervals in the left hand are too much for smaller hands then they can be rolled or replaced with octaves or even single bass notes.I hope you enjoy learning it as much as I have enjoyed writing it.
