Beautiful!

Patrice lives in Bordeaux. We already posted some vid from him... I came accross this solo version of "Bess, you is my woman now"...

I love the atmosphere, the empty concert hall and Patrice's interpretation, implication, rendition...

Enjoy!

Hi all,

I've been in to this tune lately. Many people play it in Eb, but I play it in Db. I think the original version from the Willy Wonka movie was sung in Db. In fact, sometimes I think keys can be very powerful. When I hear this tune in Eb, it sounds ok, but the spirit of it really comes out in Db to my ears at least. I think certain keys have a vibe! That's why I generally don't like to play tunes in just any key, some melodies just have the right key! Any thoughts on that!? Anyway, enjoy!

Check out the equation in the middle of the video. Leigh talks about using force to make volume.

Bob (delisler) posted on TOTM 2. I made a reply, made it more general and here it is!

There was a bit of talk about the lyrics to standard/show tunes. Some felt it was important to be aware of them when playing and improvising on them. Some didn't, myself included . These are the kinds of lyrics I like. Check Michael out. He recorded all the tracks himself and it grooves like crazy!!!
Enjoy!
