Allen Dale-Moon River

[bigtopboss]

Love to hear you play. You have such a gift Allen. Thanks for sharing it.

[lora3650]

Love the way your fingers go at the end.

[vimana19]

That is what Art Tatum says; never play the same tune the same way twice. In fact I am just about to put some stuff on I played just like that and if I might add inspired by your rendition of Judy's Garland. You knopw what I mean. Look for Vimana19 piano medley in about an hour and if you can't find it I will just mail it you instead.

[vimana19]

Allan is the boss at this kind of playing.

[allendale1962]

@vimana19 Really? I just played it how I felt it.

[allendale1962]

@vimana19 Thanks alot!

[vimana19pianomedley]

[Femininity53]

Dear Allen, thank you for offering us your personal piano music library. You are a very talented pianist and I can never get enough of your music. My Dad passed away last year, and while I was growing up he used to play Stardust for us. If you know this piece, could you Please play it for me. Thank you and may God Bless you, Allen. Sincerely: Louise.

[allendale1962]

Dear louise, I have posted Stardust on Youtube a long time ago. Just type in the youtube search Allen Dale - Stardust. You should find it. Thanks, Allen Dale.

¡ Increíble !

[allendale1962]

Thanks.

[weljohnson]

i want to cry! its sooo good!

[Torera09]

This is amazingly played, may I ask where you got the notes from? Its a beautiful rendition and as an amateur pianist, I cant really learn by ear. Thanks and well done.

[allendale1962]

Youcan order MOON RIVER from any local MUSIC STORE. My arrangement was made up in my head. Sorry.

[StcNY]

Wow no comments.... today i started mi piano lessons....i hope someday i could play like you...so intense...so deeply... tnaks a lot you inspired me haha good luck and keep playing like that

[allendale1962]

Thank you. Practice hard!

[ReturnOfTheStienway]

I liked your rendition of this a lot! Such a pretty song, and you play it very well.

[allendale1962]

Thank you!

[Boss8P]

it's beautiful! Sorry? you have not note sheents? maybe you can write them?( it's really good

[allendale1962]

Sorry, but I have neither the time nor patience to write sheet music. Order the sheet music from a store like I did and learn how to color your own pallet through Improvisations. Thanks.

[slayer0217]

ouch,you make me cry!

[allendale1962]

sorry.

[durkheiminho]

It is us who need to say THANK YOU!!!

[allendale1962]

Thanks.

[brielle95]

two thumbs up....its really nyc...you've bring back memories from the past...

[allendale1962]

thank you.

[jolorrained]

This is amazing. I was almost brought to tears. You are a very talented musician.

[allendale1962]

Thank you!

[johnhmm]

I am speechless. You must have played this by ear. I have heard Moon River played often, but never did I hear such an expressive version on the piano. I have been playing by ear for 48 years, and I play in a community service orchestra, but I still go Gaga when I observe talent like that.

[allendale1962]

thanks! I play by ear and just celebrated 43 years playing the piano.

[shyriu1980]

Very pretty and well played :)

[allendale1962]

[allendale1962]

[VirginiaGuySlims]

Very welcome. I wish I had that gift of coordination and eye, hand, ear sync it takes.

[VirginiaGuySlims]

WONDERFUL job. I want a Baby Grand and the lessons to learn how to play it. Again, WONDREFUL rendition. Thanks.

[allendale1962]

[cheng080792]

[allendale1962]

[batistableeds4gold]

I read that your birthday is in October and want to wish you happy birthday, I don't know if I said it too early or too late, but happy birthday, by the way....today is October 19.

Also, your playing Moon River was very nice. I was three years old when I listened to Moon River for the very first time. I listen to Moon River a lot because it is my favorite tune.

[allendale1962]

Thanks for your reply. My bday was Oct.6th. I am now 46 years old. I think the greatest rendition of this song was done by Judy Garland. I also celebrated 43 years of playing the piano.

[edwardvanhalen316]

You need a virtual tip jar!

[allendale1962]

[poistu]

It's a song. If you feel it is a threat disregard.

[allendale1962]

Didn't mean to upset you, but have never heard the song In the Wee hours of the morning. Sorry.

[poistu]

Could you please play in the wee small hours of the morning?

[allendale1962]

Is that a song or a threat towards my playing???

[ctatumloverr]

it's amazing!

[allendale1962]

Thank you.

[Nintenshi]

OMG this is so beautiful wow when did you start playing piano? thanks for the wonderful interpretation very beautiful

[homerboy488]

You are really amazing. I've watched all of your videos and your ragtime is flawless. You are one of the rare people who are "gifted." You are an inspiration to those of us who are not. Thanks.

[allendale1962]

Thank You Tama!!!!

[kesoyyokepasa]

BRAVO BRAVISSIMO!!!, lovely playing indeed!, amazing talent, thanks for these videos, its the best cover by far in youtube.

If only you could ask someone to record this song from an angle, over the keyboard, so we could see exactly what your playing.. that would be great! I love this one and I wished I can learn to play it just half as good as you do someday...lol

Greetings from Spain

[allendale1962]

Thank You, not sure how you want this videoed, over my shoulder????

[kesoyyokepasa]

Thanks for replying so fast!, well only if possible, yes, that would be nice, sorry my english is not too good to explain the angle..lol, but i think over the shoulder for instance would be nice. But then again if its not too much hassle!

Thanks again for your videos

[musicali78]

very nice played! I'm half way learning this song...it's a little hard. But you make look so easy.

[allendale1962]

Practice, you will do FINE!!! Thanks!!

[CornishMiner]

So good I had to play it twice! I love the way you interpret many of these classic tunes in your inimitable style. I agree with jax when he says you warm us with your talent! I'd love to hear Sweet Georgia Brown given the Allen Dale treatment btw ;)

[allendale1962]

AW Shucks, Georgia Brown has been posted, and THANKS!!!!!

[medicalgarbage]

I really like this take on the song.
