Could some kind soul tell me how you learn to improvise such cool and smooth jazz ? I've got a classical background but the way to find proper chords, let alone the impro idea is sorcery to me... thks
@kerawelt It's much easier than you might imagine. To hear more songs, go to very mellow piano.com. You can also purchase my CD there - and I can contact you about chordal structures and how they are the basis for improvization. Thanks for asking.
@bobpettegrew1 Dear Bob, just saw your very kind answer. Many thanks for cary to drop these few words. Can't begin to tell you how much I dream to be able to play such endearing mellow jazz style. I find this rendering of Gershwin's hit absolutely gorgeous. Will go to your the site and get your CD. Great thanks.
Have you heard my little effort for the new princess; it's not in this league but I was pleased with the final cut, its on Youtube as "For a girl who would be a princess" enjoy.
I'm a pianist, and this fellow is really remarkable. His key changes are so impressive and original.
I have a minor however. I believe with exactly the chords and style that he played this classic peice, he could slow down a bit, and feel each phrase, and key change.
If you've ever heard of Shirley Horn, you would know what I mean. EVery chord is connect with a through and emotion, that expresses itself on many different levels, music being only one of them .
Really makes me want t doze off you know? This is like one of those early dates like in the Lady and the Tramp. Or cartoons like those. 10/10. Just rated it. I'm subscribing right NOW!
@darksouth31 Sir, i approve of that comment. I can actually prove it true. Please visit my Chanel, there you will see a few videos labeled Piano Improvisation 1, 2, and 4 piano improvisations, please watch it, you will enjoy it, my 82 year old piano teacher
