Loose instrumental improvised arrangement on standard tune Body and Soul. Executed on Kaps Studio Upright piano.
My early influences: Oscar Peterson, Keith Emerson, George Shearing, soon followed by Keith Jarrett, Chick Corea, Herbie Hancock, Joe Sample, George Duke. Today I listen to solo piano of Duke Ellington, Earl Hines, Art Tatum, Bud Powell, Dave Brubeck, Lennie Tristano, Cecil Taylor.
My deepest love now lies in the music of Duke Ellington, Louis Armstrong, Lester Young, Artie Shaw, Benny Goodman, and later of Charlie Parker, Sonny Rollins, Miles Davis, Stan Getz, John Coltrane supreme?

  • You take a few liberties with the Chords and some melody notes. And please learn the Bridge it should make sense.

  • Sit up straight! Posture is important when you're at the keys.

  • can people still buy old pianos like this?

  • That's because the sound then goes off better from the strings.

  • why does everyone doing old time piano leave the front open and expose the keys?
