great job Pat! Thanks for keeping it alive

@RichardBBudd Art Tatem didn't really swing that hard. He was amazing but the true swinging style wasn't solidified until Basie's crew hit New York, which is well after Tatem had established his style and career and a Tickler and virtuoso

This kind of transcription is incredibly difficult. Many congratulations on doing such a fine job!

Is this transcription off the recording from 20th Century Piano Genius. I love that entire album!
-
Agree. Fabulous technique but major absence of swing. Very interesting for quick insight into some of AT's amazing voicings and harmonic choices. Bravo.

It's called a transcription. Listen to Tatum's recording from 1955 and direct your criticisms toward him.

Do you drill your fingers do get that technique and speed or do you just play music?

I used to be a bit obsessive with scales and arpeggios at one point, but honestly-- I haven't done them in years.... Now when I learn new music, the thing I focus on is my hands feeling tension free and relaxed at all times, the speed comes naturally after that.

could you reccomend a good method book for arpeggios?

Oscar Beringer's "Daily Technical Studies" has everything you'll ever need.
