Some interesting facts about the tune might interest you.
Conception was written in 1950. Bud Powell biographer Peter Pullman has written that bassist Al McKibbon, clarinetist Buddy DeFranco, composer, and saxophonist Gil Melle, and pianist Claude Williamson, all of whom were professional modern jazz musicians in New York City in the early 1950s, have stated in interviews that pianist Bud Powell composed some or all of 'Conception', and that Shearing heard and adapted Powell's work. The tune was written in the key of Db.
The original score was adapted by Miles Davis in 1950, who created an arrangement in the key of C. It kept Shearing's chord changes and main theme, but replaced the composition's bridge and ending with new melodic material. It was entitled 'Deception' and recorded on Miles album "Birth of The Cool". [Wiki: https://bit.ly/3uk54lE]
