Take Five Jazz trio *** remixed ***

Hi - this is Josh again and I'm finally posting my Take Five effort after recording it almost two months ago.

I had lots of technical problems with my first efforts in assembling all the separate pieces and have only now overcome most of them. There were three videos recorded in separate places and times and held together by a click track. Still it wasn't easy synchronizing the results into one coherent video!

Take Five was written by saxophonist Paul Desmond. It's in 5/4 time and is a famous Jazz classic. I also played this piece for one of my studies for my grade 9 RCM piano exam last Tuesday (obviously without the drum and bass backup - and no click track either).

I hope you enjoy it!
Later, Josh

Can you play whatever song you want for you RCM exams?

Good effort, Josh.

You clearly have a great love and feel for the music, and at such a tender age you have many many years of making some great music ahead of you. Keep practicing, young man, and I'm sure you will go far.

Well done to Dad too - nice one, Ed.

You continue to impress me, young man. That's a hard piece to play, as I recall - Db+ with all those flats.
