As Time Goes By, written by H. Hupfield, is performed in a solo stride style which incorporates many of the pianistic elements of Fats Waller and Art Tatum. It is played in a very straight-ahead manner, although the variation at bar 73 takes a few more melodic and harmonic liberties. Note the different methods of playing the bass notes; single note, octave, fifth, seventh, tenth, and tenth with a fifth. Stride playing is one of the "..fundamental things " that still apply to piano playing. This all time hit was the theme song from the movie Casablanca where at one point, a brooding Humphry Bogart says to the piano player, "...Play it Sam, you played it for her, now you can play it for me...". Key of Eb. Performed by: Miles Black. Picture of: Art Tatum.
