I am a (retired) teacher having taught in a jazz studies course at a tertiary college in Geelong Australia.
My primary interest is to provide as much information as I can to intermediate - advanced jazz piano students.
I record the video (on a cheap webcam), audio (as an MP3 file on my computer) and as a midi file (on my Yamaha P-250 piano) all at the same time so all are in sync.
Usually straight after recording, I add the comments that try to explain some of the melodic/harmonic ideas that I used.
The videos are assembled later - often with transcriptions (generated from the midi file by computer - usually PowerTracks from PGmusic) and always with annotations that explain some of the techniques used.
Go to my website at http://www.bushgrafts.com for free downloads of these videos.
- or go to my website to buy my DVD with all the videos at high quality and extra printable transcriptions. Hitting 'Ctrl/Shift/S' in Windows Media Player slows the DVD videos down!

Please could you cover "Love for Sale", Cole Porter
I'm a long time subscriber to your channel and needless to say very much appreciate your work. Having said which, I have a request, could you please do a version of: " What Are You Doing The Rest Of Your Life "?
Hope you have the time and inclination to do the above.
All the Best,
S'later,
Boyd.
I've fave'd probably around 30 of your videos.
