11.01.2008 Here my version of this beautiful Tune. The first time I heard this song from Bill Evans was played in "A", so I tried in the same tonality.

"My Foolish Heart" is an Academy Award-nominated popular song that was published in 1949.

The music was written by Victor Young and the lyrics by Ned Washington. The song was introduced by the singer Martha Mears in the 1949 film of the same name. The song failed to escape critics' general laceration of the film; Time wrote in its review that "nothing offsets the blight of such tear-splashed excesses as the bloop-bleep-bloop of a sentimental ballad on the sound track."[1] Nevertheless, the song was nominated for an Oscar, losing out to "Baby, It's Cold Outside" by Frank Loesser.

The song was also a popular success, with two recordings of the song listed among the top 30 on the Billboard charts in 1950. Gordon Jenkins's recording of "My Foolish Heart" reached #22 and Billy Eckstine's version reached #28. Later recordings were made of this standard by numerous artists, including Bill Evans, Joe Williams with George Shearing, Tony Bennett, Frank Sinatra, Tom Jones, Carmen McRae, Astrud Gilberto and Mel Tormé. More recently, "My Foolish Heart" has been covered by pianists Liz Story and Keith Jarrett, guitarists John McLaughlin and John Abercrombie, Charlie Haden's Quartet West, singers Kurt Elling, Al Jarreau, Jane Monheit and Ann Hampton Callaway, and a capella quartet The Idea of North.

The song also featured in "The Body in the Library," an episode of the television series Marple.

  • complimenti alfonso, di dove sei?

  • @Geeno752 di salerno,ciao grazie

  • You have great taste - your choices are excellent!@ I enjoyed your playing - I hope you have a good recording deal - you deserve it. Bill Evans would love your paying. Yet, you have lots of "you" besides Bill Evans in your style. I love your playing - so sensitive and with much feeling. Thank you for posting.

  • @ManagerGuy1 Thanks, it's much appreciated

  • do you have any idea where i might be able to buy the sheet music for this song?

  • @Shanelololol Hi you can find this song on the "real jazz book" but not this version.

    However, I read also your first message, now you've deleted. You have asked how to download this song in high sound quality. This song will be a few days in "iTunes and Amazon"

    Will be also be produced on a physical CD.

    When the song will be exposed on Itunes/Amazon , I will inform all my subscribers with an audio-video mail. Thanks for the support :-)
