Waltz Books

Does anyone play out of Bill Matthiesen’s Waltz Books? Volume 1 or 2?

Yes MaryAnn I have used Bill Matthiesen’s Waltz Book Volume 1.
Great book of traditional waltzes.

Thank you Raymond. I think so too. I was thinking about entering the chords into Strum Machine for this book but wanted to see if there was an interest in it first.

Great idea but first check on waltz tunes that were previously enter in SM to avoid extra work.

Very true… which I have done to a point, but enough to know as I go along there will be a few in there that could be tweaked to stay true to Bill Matthiesen’s versions.

Raymond I now have half of these entered into SM - up to Midnight on the Water. Would you be willing to let me send them to you for critique to see if I am headed in the right direction before I make them available to the Forum? They all have intro’s and near the end I started adding TAG’s which I really enjoy to end a waltz.
