Seriously WHO are you? With that kinda talent you should be a member of Jazz royalty under the name of son of god(Art Tatum).
I see you're wearing a tie and everything ;) i just hope you didnt get sucked into the corporate life and got a cubicle or office somewhere...and your talent is wasted ;(
I am almost invisible. Nobody knows me and a few people that do don't even know I play piano.I basicly play for fun.I am a piano tuner and go into nice homes.We are told to dress up for a good impression. I can not see how I could enter in to full time income at what I do.Tatum style is not that popular today.
Thanks for comments,but I am not as good as you think.
Very nice as usual. You've really assimilated the Tatum approach.
However I would like to humbly suggest that maybe you should position the camera a little bit higher so we could see every detail of your playing better.
As it is we can't see the right hand very clearly, and we can't see the left hand at all.
Thanks. This way you can,t steel my stuff. Just teasing,Thats a good rule,but sometimes difficult to mount the camera. I will use a step ladder next time. Well actually, I have 1 more video from the poor angle.
As always, you have a wonderful sensitivity to the intricacies of Arts' touch and approach. Since AT was an early adopter of new tunes of the day, I'd bet that he played Satin Doll. Trouble is it was likely "experimental" only and never recorded. I hope this will be the start of many tunes you post that suggest what Art might have played "x" like. Merry Christmas & Happy Holidays.

Satin Doll (1953), did Art Tatum play it before his death in 1956?
How would he have played "I Want To Hold Your Hand" (1963) or "Moon River" (1961).
Great video as always! 5 stars, thank you!!!!
