Boogie Woogie : "Summertime Bumble" - Performance

Me playing "Summertime Bumble Boogie" at a charity 'Pianothon' at the St Davids Hall in Cardiff, 18th November 2006.

The piece is 'sort of' an original composition, although it does have brief extracts from the music to 'Summertime' and also the 'Bumble Boogie'...so perhaps it's best termed an 'arrangement'.

It is the first time I have attempted to play this piece to an audience and I think it went quite well. Safe to assume I was more than happy to get my hands on a Concert Grand Piano!

sounded good, maybe a little slower and lay back on the 8th notes a bit, make it swing a bit more.

[artymowycz]

[adamleeclark]

Sounds like this is a half step and minored below where it should be. Bbm bring it up to Cmaj.
