great commentary; real good stuff for beginners especially who have some background in music theory to look over and learn some common patterns of improv

[hi19hi19]

Wow, I love this video. Many people put beautiful music on YouTube... far fewer also explain what they are doing as they go. The comments you put on the various passages and techniques are really interesting, thank you so much for this! And it goes without saying that I like the song itself, too ^_^

[Bronzebk]

BRAVO!!! Was never a Jazz Fan till I heard this... Beyond EXCELLENCE!

[buddingtonparker]

This a very beautiful interpretation in the true style of Bill Evans , of whom I very much admire.Thank you for this post!!!!!!!!!!

This is a very interesting and musical approach to the art of arranging. Good Work!

[SkilledKeyboardist]

This is not true improvisation. Its all sheet music.

[jazz2511]

You are wrong.

This was improvised just from a leadsheet (melody with chord symbols only. If you had read the information on the video, you would see that the transcription was of my improvisation - I recorded it as a midi file as I recorded the video and a computer program later translated the notes I was playing into (more or less) readable notation and I added these to the video.

You give him what for, Doug!

Great job.

[Pumukl1000]

You should be glad about his statement. The fact that he thinks,that this is sheet music is probaly one of the biggest compliments he could give to you.

[catalystdrums123]

what an presumptuous user name he has, must be compensating for something

[metalocs]

c koi le nom de ce logiciel, si kelk un pe m aider a trouver un logiciel pour pratiquer le piano et merci

[giovaFR]

C'est un logiciel de MAO quelconque, ca n'est pas un logiciel pour apprendre.

Tu trouvera plein de logiciels de ce genre, gratuit ou non. Si tu veux une astuce pour apprendre en autodidacte, chope des fichiers midi, tu pourra les lire dans les soft MAO, au rallenti et voir quelles touches sont préssées ;) (désolé, je n'ai pas de nom de soft pour débutant en tete, cherche juste : MAO sur google)

[lagathy]

thankyou ever so much for these videos...really have given me a lot of ideas/direction and inspiration...

[PianistaItaliano]
