Silent Night Tatum style

Late 40,s style Tatum with a 12 tone row type ending.I purchased a used Kurzweil for almost nothing. Hate the tone and touch,however it is close to my computer where I can use finale software to transcribe the notes played.May be interesting for the hungering and thirsting. Trade secrets of jazz piano as it used to be played.All things should be in order hopefully by next month.

Thanks! Unfortunately I do not have any notes for this one. I keep saying I am going to get this software program working but need time and money.Maybe after the new year.

That was awesome! I am a gospel musician looking to enhance my playing. What exactly are you doing in the left hand? Is it 10ths? 9ths? Exactly how are you swinging so effortlessly? Any suggestions on what and how I can practice to strengthen my left hand in this style?

Thanks,

Eugene

I shared some things on your channel.Listening to other pianist in that era can help much as well.

Once again you touch the masters graces. This is difficult to do indeed, acoustic science now has a name for the shortest discernible musical period of time - which is aptly named a "Tatum". Even in a Tatum you seem to find Tatum- we'll done. Merry Christmas 08 all the best in '09
