Summertime by George Gershwin

Below is a link to "Summertime" By G. Gershwin. The chords are almost a 12 bar blues, but he wrote this little 2 chord thing that is here in the introduction of my version. I find it mesmerising and hypnotic. Such an incredible compostition, although this is just something I did by ear. I'm sure there would be a lot more to it if I could read and write music like a "proper" musician as these guys were. But still, I completely love it all the same.

Paul, that`s just beautiful.
Reading music just gets in the way.
That`s from the heart.
