Moon Beams is a 1962 album by jazz musician Bill Evans, and the first trio album recorded by Evans after the death of Scott LaFaro. With Chuck Israels on bass taking the place of LaFaro, Evans recorded several songs during these May and June 1962 sessions. Moon Beams contains a collection of ballads recorded during this period. The more uptempo tunes were put on How My Heart Sings!.. In 2012, it was released a new remastered edition which includes three previously unreleased alternate takes.

A barcarolle (from French, also barcarole; originally, Italian barcarola or barcaruola, from barca boat)[1] is a traditional folk song sung by Venetian gondoliers, or a piece of music composed in that style. In classical music, two of the most famous barcarolles are Jacques Offenbachs «Belle nuit, ô nuit damour», from his opera The Tales of Hoffmann; and Frédéric Chopins «Barcarolle in F-sharp major» for solo piano.
