Description:

Marian McPartland has become famous for hosting her Piano Jazz radio program since 1978, but she was a well-respected pianist decades before the national exposure on NPR. MELANCHOLY MOOD: Marian’s former husband, cornettist Jimmy McPartland, gets part of the credit for this tune. “I wrote it years ago. That first phrase came from something Jimmy used to play when he was practicing. So I consider him co-composer. After I played it on the piano, the rest of the tune just fell into place.” (from composer’s album liner notes: Personal Choice/ Concord Records, 1990)
