I made a few edits so it is playable by a human, but they are sparser than what you might see in some of my other transcriptions. Lee Sims is always a pleasure to transcribe because his style is in equal measure straightforward and ingenious. This arrangement is particularly wonderful to me because of his combination of cheerful “naïveté“ with dramatic classically-inspired elements. I transcribed this roll from a video by my friend, YouTube user @Skgwgaietto, who is building a wonderful library of roll videos on his channel. I highly encourage you to check it out.
