Some Day My Prince Will Come - Jazz Piano- Enhanced version

In my youth, before anyone had heard of jazz theory, one of the best ways to learn was to stand as close to the pianist as possible, so that his fingers could be seen clearly. And if you were brave enough, you could ask about some of the things that he did. For those who have trouble reading, this extra view of the piano keys may be useful. And the text comments I have added might explain some of the techniques used. For those who are good readers, a fairly accurate transcription is available at

If you have a fast connection and want to see this in high quality video to see the notes clearly (and improved audio), add the letters &fmt=18 straight after the existing internet address line above.

Hey this is a great video just wondered if you could maybe put up some tips on creating a walking bass line for this piece? If so that'd be great thanks!

You have some interesting stuff here! But if I was to play on that standard, I would rather do a 'progressive' solo rather than jump from chords to run-up scales, otherwise it destroys a bit the anticipation for the audience/listener. But again, you tried to show an enhanced version with various possiblities and different levels of interpretation so I perfectly understand your decision in doing so.
