I heard "Softly as a Morning Sunrise" in the changes of "walk Don't Run" and in reading the comments see I was not alone. Must be why I adore both tunes. Maybe I'll start incorporating WDR into Softly when I play it!
Actually, the method is written in both treble and bass clef, like piano music, and doesn't contain any runs, just (mainly) chords, scales and arpeggios.

It's more certain he did at least record it in New York City in 1931. Even though its authorship is unknown.. Nikos Roubanis. English lyrics were later penned by Fred Wise, Milton Leeds and S.K. Russell.
INTERPRETATION. He took an old tune that came from various sources and he even "borrowed" from Harry James' version (trumpet by Dick as well) The exact history of "Misirlou" has been lost but it's most likely a Greek song, in the rembetika style, from Smirni (Izmir in Turkey) from the 1910s. The title means "Woman from Egypt" or "Egyptian girl" in Turkish. Many Greeks at that time were living in Turkey, especially Smirni and Istanbul. Even though its authorship is unknown,
