The letter this week is Y
Y is for yearning - that wistful, melancholy and sometimes pensive longing we have probably all felt at one time or another.
Here is a little musical ragtime that expresses that poignant longing.
....... a Jazz version
and a little Foxtrot
For more Y's visit here, at ABC Wednesday with thanks to Mrs. Nesbitt and her helpers.

Wonderful old music, Hildred. I think I liked the ragtime pianist best.
"Yearning" is perfect for the letter Y.

Oh gosh, I'm alwaYs Yearning for something! Great take on our Y week. :D
Yearning is a great idea for the letter Y and you covered it very creatively in this post. Happy New Year.
That is a wonderfully creative entry! I like the little graphic you chose for Yearning. :-)
My entry is at The Pagan Sphinx
I've always had a penchant for yearn/ing. Enjoyed this post!
Interesting musical interludes! The blues is my favourite.
I am yearning for summer, The music was fun.

Thank you for the treat! Those were the days, weren't they?! Happy New Year, Hildred and Charles! I hope to see you a lot in this year! Your blogposts are always entertaining and very interesting.
Thanks for all the music this morning. Love that vintage poster.
That was a very nice take on the letter Y! My personal favourite must be the first video - perhaps since the pianist with that name MUST be of Norwegian ancestry? Just Google Skjelbred (or the version Skjelbreid) and you will see that some are of Olympic proportions ...
