Peri's Scope

It's time for more music on Tea with Liya! Today's song is a bouncy jazz piece called "Peri's Scope." While writing my post, I was thinking about how the song repeats melodic phrases to make it more cohesive. I hope you like listening to it!

Great is Thy Faithfulness

Welcome back to Tea with Liya! In a week we're going to be halfway through the year. On this last Wednesday of June, I thought it would be a good time to publish a hymn called "Great is Thy Faithfulness." I hope you like this piano cover!

Watch What Happens

Here's a second song I have for Tea with Liya today. I have a few songs lined up on my list, so I decided to post two this week. This jazz song is called "Watch What Happens." Maybe that was a good song to learn earlier this year, considering how quickly things have changed. I hope you like listening to it!

Bouncing with Bud

Welcome back to Tea with Liya! On this sunny Wednesday, I'm playing "Bouncing with Bud," a jazz song composed by Bud Powell. It may already have 74 years in the books, but I think it's still a song worth listening to. I hope you like it!

All the Things You Are

Welcome back to Tea with Liya! In this post, I'm playing a song called "All the Things You Are," composed by Jerome Kern. If you've listened to a lot of jazz standards, you've almost certainly heard of this one. The song has made it to a lot of lists of "Jazz Standards for Beginners" and "Songs Everyone Needs to Know." I hope you like it!
