...dissect the tune pensively, as if she were quartering an apple, then puts it all neatly together again better than new; 2) at breakneck tempo, as in Liza, where the tune dashes off in improbable directions and fetches up, quivering, back where it started; 3) production numbers, as in Slaughter on Tenth Avenue, in which the pianist may start off in concert style, fall into a swinging beat, throw in a dash of counterpoint, and conclude with a sweeping finale full of big chords and scale runs...
