'Some Day My Prince Will Come' jazz piano and trio

[jaminaifarkas]

Köszönöm szépen! Ha csak az élvezet kedvéért hallgatom, akkor is nagy élmény.

Az, hogy egy remek jazz oktatásban lehetett részem, az a másik nagy boldogság. Köszönöm!

AMAZING, I love the intro, my absolute favorite, but it keeps it's deepness, thank you!

[cosmicjazzer]

Beautiful! :)

[o0KJura0o]

[iisaboohoo]

[Nindeful]

[BitzofBrin]

Flawless

[claitontesch]

superb!!!!

[titanicpiano14]

This is wonderful!

[Major2219]

You have really nice chords!!!!!!!!!

[redsoxrocksox9]

wow. Very very impressive

[Jazman493]

That beginning of your tune sounds like the Chick Corea/Herbie Hancock version from the two piano records. Am I totally off?

[TroubleinZION]

I wish you lived in florida so you could be my piano teacher. Your so good. I've seen a million of your videos. Is there anything at all that contains this kind of theory and instruction. Please let me know. Thankx

[Smile123Cheeze]

If i could learn how to play this i will die a happy person!

[Carefreeblues]

ditto.. ditto.. lol

[MontgomerylandFunk]

I loved this song on Buddy Rich's CD "No Funny Hats"..

Your version was also very nice.

[vin1386]

Very good teaching by analysis. Hopefully someone does the same thing on saxophone. As a sax player, I am impressed with wat you do. Thank you!

[Bendoengbanaang]

You are a pretty good jazzpiano-teacher ;)

This tuesday I'm getting my first real (jazz-)piano-lesson. But I already taught myself some (jazz-)piano, I'm playing for a half year now, and your knowledge helped my progression in playing jazz on piano.

[simplydaft]

Splendid!

[jimicheesecake]

You are brilliant! thanks

[muzakrh]

Doug, great track as usual.

However is this tune sometimes called "Some Day My Prints Will Come". Although maybe that does not apply in this digital age.

Still like "Variations on a Theme".

We did enjoy your visit.

Mature age friends on the Gold Coast.

[slverbulet7]

cool as hell

[susancarol225]

Hi Doug, any chance you know The Sweetest Sound by Rodgers and Hart? A beautiful song, and a favorite, but I can't find a piano solo. A few very bad vocals. If you have the time, it's a great song and would love to hear you play it. Thank you.

[Vayshen]

Would you mind telling me if you're using Band in a Box, by any chance, for the bass and drums?

I just recently started using it over my Yamaha PSR 3000 keyboard (let's me use full clavier of 88key Roland).

Nice switch over to 3/4ths, I've got to start finding the guts to do that myself =D.

Please do check out the few things I've recorded, I should get to recording another piece tomorrow or so.

-Vayshen

[rightboss]

3/4ths? you mean 3/4 dont you as in three crotchet beats in a bar?

[vibeman27]

Man, I just discovered you on the Tube. Great stuff. I really like the bass line on this tune, is it available? I play vibes and would like to work up this tune to put on the Tube. Thanks for info.

[viulu11]

Lose the mindless intro, please, but the rest of it is quite enjoyable and in good taste.

[saratipping]

Eldar Djangirov starts his version of "Lady Wocks" like You start this tune...

[theimprovisor]

Just a little correction to your good job, at 3:35 (if I' m not wrong) about, the LH voicing you play is a Bb7(#9) instead of a b9 as you wrote. Cheers

[jazz2511]

You are absolutely right! By the way, I liked your videos - especially the Happy Birthday reharmonisation!

[Jazman493]

No it's a Bb7(#9). It's just inverted differently. Nice job, Doug.

[ChadMStevenson]

Best thing about this guy - all the notes he puts on his videos! Please keep it up! Can learn alot from you.

[twtom]

I love every song you've done. You often comment on the moves of your right hand. Tell us about the left hand too.

[deaner18]

very beautiful, would it be too much to ask you to post an your version of "on green dolphin street"? if you could i'd appreciate it. thanks.

[risuku2002]

some classical player can't do these

you are great

[ayolt]

That first phrase is from eldar jangirov!!! literally!

It's still a great performance though :)

[jazz2511]

Well spotted! I keep beside my piano a blank manuscript book in which I note down any ideas that catch my attention when listening to jazz. I can then notate them, or analyse them, and most importantly absorb them. I have filled a number of books with these jazz 'ideas' over the years, and many are not actual licks - rather rhythmic/harmonic/melodic/styl­istic ideas that often can be applied in other situations. This one was a fairly literal intro idea that, I noted he did on 'Nature Boy'

[jazz2511]

Interestingly, he used this intro (idea) on both versions of 'Nature Boy' I have. One with a trio, and another solo version he did when on Marion McPartland's 'Piano Jazz' show. I guess its what we all do - 'steal' (or adapt) ideas from other performers - even from past performances of our own!

[Major2219]

Can you brake that change down what you did at 1:08?

[jazz2511]

Go to the enhanced Youtube version and you can see clearly what is happening - using the whole tone scale (the one with G in it) as augmented triads (1,3 and sharp5) descending in whole steps. There is a full transcription on my DVD. Go to my website for details

[Major2219]

Thanks!

[LatePianist]

Stunning ^_^

I love that Cm7 4th arpeggio and that phrase with the chromatic lead into the chords. I really wonder how you think of these things. 5 stars

[jonorulz]

thats just sublime!

[amibami]

love your touch ,plz. keep on posting o

one can learn a lot from you

Thanks

[damildlyshreddah]

Doesn't get any better then this!
