Vaudvillium (Late Intermediate Piano Solo)

by Tom Gerou

LATE INTERMEDIATE PIANO SOLO

“Vaudvillium” is a character-driven piano solo drawn from Novellas, Book 1, blending jazz-inflected style with expressive storytelling. Ideal for recital programming or artistic study, this late intermediate work invites pianists to explore nuance, phrasing, and rhythmic flexibility within a refined, approachable framework.

Written in a relaxed jazz style with swing rhythm and marked Moderato, the piece features Dal Segno al Fine (D.S. al Fine) navigation and includes an optional B section, giving performers interpretive freedom and formal choice. Subtle syncopation, lyrical momentum, and understated harmonic color encourage expressive shaping and stylistic awareness.

With its flexible form and jazz-inspired language, Vaudvillium is an engaging selection for pianists ready to expand their stylistic range while maintaining clarity, balance, and musical intent.
