In my study of “reading” music I came across a rendition of “The Way We Were” as recorded by Dave Koa and Vanessa Williams. The first 33 bars are in the key of “C” major for tenor sax. The music changes to “Ab” major in bar 35 all the way till the end. With no lyrics I tend to get lost. So I pull up the video on YouTube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EeZoSunuoDQ
Re: the backing track. I can play the sheet music for “The Way We Were” but I can’t play the sheet music along with the backing track. I do better playing along with Dave Koz and Vanessa Williams and reading the music
