Solo piano clip of 2 choruses of Harold Arlen's "Over The Rainbow" with Keith Jarrett changes along with modulation as follows: first A in Eb, second A in F, bridge in F and last A in Db. This was taped during my Berklee improv class this past summer by pianist Ricardo Curto.

Seven Rungs of Resistance By Wynton Marsalis

Check this out.

--------------------------
Seven Rungs of Resistance
There are 7 basic rungs of resistance up the ladder of artistic success

1. Ignorance - Not your fault. Generally the result of a polluted environment. No one
knows, so you don't know.
Example: You think funk is jazz.

2. Miseducation - Your teachers are well meaning, but just don't know. It's no one's
fault. Example: someone tells you, you have to study classical music to become a jazz
musician. Bad advice.

3. Personal difficulties - You just have some major personal problems to overcome.

The Importance of Posture and getting older

Over the last couple weeks ive been dealing with a abdominal injury from loading a keyboard at a reggae gig over halloween and then played a vibe gig the day after which really put me out of commission. Because of this injury i havent been able to stand and play at the vibes for a couple weeks at any length. This got me thinking, wow im not 20 anymore. lol
