[jorgeluizvilchez1]

la verdad que muy expresivo y delicado el modo de tocar. Adelante maestro. Desde Argentina. Jorge Vilchez

[MusicBeSweetYo]

I'm Jewish and this cover touched me. amazing job!

Sincerly Dave

[cottagerose]

You played so beautifully! This is my favorite Christmas video on youtube. I'm learning this piece and hope you could tell me, whether you used any pedal in this piece and if yes, in which bars particularly? Thanks!!

[idaveit]

@cottagerose Thank you very much for your nice comment. I used the sustain pedal quite often. This happens intuitively and is depending of the overall sound behaviour of the piano.

Best regards

Dave

[mlni10]

 well done.... beautiful....

[idaveit]

@mlni10 Thank you so much.

[travisakapimp]

what are the cords for this

[trlkly]

@travisakapimp (continued)

Bb D/A Gm(7) Bb/F C/E->->F/C->->F/A Bb->Gm/Bb D

Gm7 Adimm7 Bb C(7)/E F Gm7 C7 F

(Repeat)

Outro: F Gm7/F->F(2)sus F

-> indicates fast transitions. Two in a row are walks.

*Eb13 is Eb-Bb-G D-F-C. The #11 comes in when you play the A.

Sorry to have to do it in two posts. YouTube is being stupid.

[travisakapimp]

@trlkly thanks bro

[trlkly]

@travisakapimp I can do a passing version with this:

Intro: F Gm7/F->F(2)sus F Gm7/F->F(2)sus

F Gm7 F/A->Am7 Bb2 C(7) F

F/A Gm7 F/A F G/B C/E Dm/F C/G->G C

Am7 Dm7 Gm7 F/C->C7 Eb13*(#11) C(2)

loved your arrangement of autumn leaves and the guitar concerto wished

Hi,

I never heard this tune before, I think.

Thank you for sharing this peaceful moment and thanks to maramazone too for his tip about a player I didn't know either.

You're true, I don't know much about anything ;-)

[maramazone]

Lovely version, you should also check out the version by Miles Black on spotify!

[idaveit]

@maramazone

thank you for the recommendation of Miles Black. I didn't know his version before. I bought it instantly in iTunes. He plays beautiful.

[maramazone]

I'm glad you like the Miles Black version, yes a really lovely version. All the best!
