How High the Moon -- Jazz Piano Solo

This is a great tune to play. I recorded this last night after an evening out -- very relaxed after midnight playing session. I used chord subs that were fairly close to the original changes, but color the tune a bit differently -- (I hope in a positive way :-)

This was played using Synthogy Ivory Italian Grand and then processed in Logic on a MacBook Pro.

great musicianship, so well balanced...love the fact that producing a nice sound is your first priority, and that you don't show off in any way, when you could easily do it.. very wise playing! :))

[7notemode]

Thanks, karolosm.

Wow. Your left hand, like Oscar Peterson, has inspired my left hand to start practicing again!

Especially the dialogue between right and left - would you have any suggestions (please do) how I could practice both my hands together?

Thanks, loving your music

[7notemode]

Thanks clementleung17. The best way to build the left hand is to practice playing the head and improvising with the left hand while comping with the right hand. Think of playing solo's that sound like a trombone or baritone sax. A slow tempo is fine to start out with.

Very beautiful. The start reminds me of Oscar. He liked this kind of octave lines with separate hands.
