As Time Goes By Jazz Backing Track – This is a very important song that every jazz musician should have in their repertoire.

Composed in 1931 by Herman Hupfeld, As Time Goes By became widely famous when it was featured in the classic film “Casablanca” in 1942. Its success led it to become the theme for the opening logos of many Warner Bros. movies.

Billie Holiday, Ella Fitzgerald, Louis Armstrong, Frank Sinatra, Dexter Gordon, Sonny Stitt, Peggy Lee, Bill Evans, Diana Krall, Chet Baker, Rod Stewart, Kenny G, and Stéphane Grappelli are some of the great names who have interpreted this beautiful song.

Here, the improviser will find a bit of a challenge in terms of harmony, but with careful analysis, they can perform this theme quite fluently.

This backing track is composed of drums, bass, guitar, and strings. The tempo is set at 85bpm.
