I appreciate your brief comments beneath the score, not only because they tell what you were doing theory-wise, but also where you were going with the solo mentally. So many parts of this video could be paused and imitated for hours by aspiring jazz pianists. What software do you use to create the scrolling score with the coordinating piano key diagram?
Sooo... a friend wants me to play at her wedding, and i'm preparing a full repertoire. I've got several nice classical pieces, I lead into Debussy's clair de lune (why does this not get played more at weddings?). I'm wondering... anyone think this would be a good piece to add? Debussy leads into jazz nicely, and I feel like I can do some Gershwin after a piece like this, though I'm wondering if it's too... mildly melancholy for a wedding?

Too good.
bill evans did the cover of this song - but his version is more well known.
I'm sure glad I subscribed.
The beginning sounds similar to Miles Davis' Flamenco Sketches...
