What Does the Jerome Gambit Sound Like?




Many people have seen the Jerome Gambit (1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bc4 Bc5 4.Bxf7+), but how many have heard it?

Well, you can discover the musical collection Gambits online, described as

A series of freely improvised excursions between guitarist Tristan Norton and woodwind/multi-instrumentalist Jaroba recorded February 13th, 2015 at Jaroba's home in San Francisco, CA.

It just goes to show you how wild, wacky and wonderful the universe is. AWJ would probably have been suprised to find a century after his obscure opening was popular someone went ahead and wrote music for it. Thanks for sharing.
