Cinema Paradiso - Jazz piano and trio

http://web.newsguy.com/dougmck/. I prepared the bass and drums before recording. The piano was improvised using a leadsheet only (go to http://www.bushgrafts.com for leadsheet, video and a midi file recorded at the same time). There is a much better video version with extra and clearer view of the notes being played - and a pdf transcription of the piano part on my DVD - see the above site for details

This is so wonderful>>i was trying to figure out the melody line and watching this video really helped and it was beautiful

Absolutely cool! I have only one problem and that is that the jazz mode is best suited to music that the world has grown weary of as written.

Cinema Paradiso is unknown to more than half the available listening public.

For me, the jazz take-off is good, but the true song has yet to sink in to the minds of enough people to make this as outstanding as it could be.

Just my 2 cents....
