And now for something completely different! ...... 'Blackbird' (lennon and McCartney) - jazz piano lesson.
This was done using the Brad Mehldau idea for the head with the acoustic bass single note ostinato.
The piano was improvised over the bass and drums.
I created the video from the midi file I recorded - and I added a 'leadsheet' at the bottom.
To see the notation, watch in High Quality

On my website

is a copy of this video (very high quality), a bass and drums backing track, and the midi file.
