[gerhardia]

Beautiful ideas and voicings!

[mariongabwe]

Hello Doug! I absolutely love your arrangement. I recorded the track and added saxophone to it yesterday (just for fun) from where the trio section

brooklynstudios.ca/sounds/Over­_the_Rainbow.mp3

is it possible to purchase the arrangement from you? AND have permission to perform saxophone with it as a track for personal use? (Credit will be given to you)

[mariongabwe]

@mariongabwe

if this is an issue, just let me know. Thanks

Mario

[peewal2008]

Do you have Band in a Box file for this arrangement? It's great, and very instructive

[godloveshere]

Thank you. I am a beginner and sat here with my chords/lead sheet and was able to follow some progressions and runs. This is a wonderful video.

[thienanle]

Sheet music? Would pay or it!

As I was told recently when I put this on a program, the title is "Over the Rainbow". Wizard of Oz fan my whole life, and I didn't realize Somewhere is not part of the title.

[joehill961]

Sheet music? :(

[mexipiano]

Sencillamente un trabajo muy bien realizado. Felicidades y gracias.

[saildapper2001]

I have my MM, and arrange a LOT, but I've got to tell you I'm humbled by the wonderful way your musical mind works, and I'm afraid 10 more years of school won't give me that. I feel deflated by comparison, yet inspired and thankful to live in an era when I get to hear and see your awesome musical ideas, especially using such a great tune as a base. Thanks for sharing!

[bigbangberry]

Absolutely beautiful. Nice work!



[Grayfox541]

can you send the sheet, please?

[BrunoQerimaj]

grazie, nuovo orizzonte

[mackalpha1]

dude...awesome awesome! Wish i couldve heard u play this live on a grand or something. I cant even put it into words how just blown i am right now. I couldve cried mid way. Can u send the sheet music or something? Youve inspired me to learn it. Thanks.

[eriksensei2]

this is unbelievably helpful, thanks!

[chafinette]

Même si votre site est les partitions sont gratuites je payerai quand même les 30€ pour le DVD complet car votre travail est énorme et mérite plus que récompense !

Enfin un site sur le net, unique à mon avis, qui offre une écriture pro et sophistiquée des standards du jazz.

Bravo !!!

[Nostradamus86]

Do you have the sheets for this? If you do can you send me a link please? Thanks Doug!

I was in the need of new ideas to spice up this song and searched and found your videos.

THANK YOU for explaining the theory behind these beautiful progressions. This not only helps with learning what you've done but also with gaining knowledge of use.

[JSW90210]

You are doing a very good thing,Doug, posting arrangements of jazz versions of standards songs in youtube. It's amazing how you play your own rendition of this particular piece. Keep it up! I have never spent so much time browsing the net 'til i found out about you and your pieces. Thank you for keeping my love for jazz alive! I have a request though if you could post just the jazz piano version of "Desifinado", I would truly appreciate it. Consider me now as one of your fans. Good luck to you!

ABC (Absolutely Beautiful Chords)

[itmsjim]

I cannot even begin to describe how amazing, incredible, touching, beautiful, awesome, perfect this video/playing is. Ok, that's just the beginning :-) Thank you!!

[JavankaBadonkaDONK]

[surynchoi]

amazing. so beautiful

[paxwallacejazz]

what a great educational resource this is as well as being so lovingly played! Thank you . I have no idea how you provided the annotation but I'm glad you do.

[82Georg]

congratulation!!! thank you very much

[mrmorksstuff]

absolutely wonderful !

[jimbomed]

As good as the other one was, this is even better. I like the idea of taking the bridge and giving the listener a fresh feeling, almost as if its something new. Thanks Doug!

[greob]

I usually dislike this standard, but you render it so genuinely that I totally love your version!

[nipissing19]

We are all fans for life Doug. Thank you so much.

[olemissguy81]

Good gosh Doug, this is amazing. I look forward to your new videos all the time. Great job!

[Lot2learn]

Truly wonderful Doug, from start to finish! I can't get over the incredible amount of effort you put into these. Your playing is superb - adding the annotations goes beyond superb. ;-)

[PianistaItaliano]

Beautiful version Doug, full of new idea, just great

[jazz2511]

@PianistaItaliano Thanks Alfonso!

[Pianopod]

♫ ♥ ♫ Stunning (as ever!) ♫ ♥ ♫

[MusicGuru12]

This is incredible. I, along with I'm sure many others, play a rendition of this song and this is really inspiring. Some of your chord variations are fantastic and I love your use of scales. Thanks for uploading. Really useful :)

[junka22]

1:27 - 1:28 that sounded like Darn That Dream :)

[rhenrichs]

You've managed a rendition that is totally unlike Keith Jarrett's but just as beautiful. Quite a feat. Bravo!

[swillhite2002]

Marvelous Doug! A never tired standard. I'll request here again please that u make a video of the Burt Bacharach classic "THE APRIL FOOLS" a not often enough heard beautiful song. I'd love to hear ur spin on it. Would ya?!! Cheers - Steven Isaac

[hectorydoris]

excelente!

[gfunk449]

Wish that you make 88 different versions of this standard. I bet each one would be different and equally fascinating.

[zimmermann10]

Genius!
