Published by Norsk Noteservice (BT.NNS9790261715591). “Waltz for Debby” was written by American jazz pianist and composer Bill Evans (1929-1980). It was heard for the first time on his 1956 debut record “New Jazz Conceptions”. This recording made the tune his most famous one, included on several later recordings both for solo piano and his usual trio format. It also became a favorite on almost all his concerts. The tune is a kind of a musical portrait of Evans’ niece, Debby Evans. In Scandinavia, Swedish singer Monica Zetterlund made it popular for a wider audience through her 1964-recording accompanied by Evans and his trio. On this recording, the song was renamed “Monicas vals”.
