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!

All the Videos, midi files,transcriptions, leadsheets and backing tracks that I have done are on my DVD (below).

Doug, looking to the video, it appears someone as autographed your music rest; true? If so, can you mention whose signature it is?

Mr. McKenzie, what substitution are you using for the D7 chord at 2:23 in your video for Embracable You?
