'Where Do You Start' - accompanying jazz singer Michelle Benjamin on a great song by Johnny Mandel (Theme from M.A.S.H., Emily, The Shadow of Your Smile).
Like the others we have done, just a stationary webcam recorded the video, and the piano was recorded both as audio and as a midi file. The midi recording was used to generate the piano keyboard view and to produce a transcription. The very simple piano part was totally improvised and unedited. This video (in stereo) and the transcription are 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.

  • Wow, I commented on this clip 2 years ago.  I continue to come back. Though I was a faithful fan of Shirley (the) Horn's rendition, this has become my "go to" when I'm craving this tune. I've grown to love the vocalist even more than i did 2 years ago. Her phrasing is flawless. Her timbre and tone quality are lovely. Also, I now realize the brilliance of the keyboardist. Beautiful chords and progressions. Just a crazy incredible performance on all counts. Thanks for sharing.

  • I posted my 1st post as I watched this, now I have watched it all I have changed my view ............. Stunning simply stunning, best of luck to the both of you.
