I know this is from a year ago, but damn is this a great comment

Thrillho he’s technically playing take four

Lool

mister.nimoe he does it’s just tucked under his right hand

JERM as opposed to being tucked under his left hand

to be fair, take five is a very stable rhythm

@@parzingtheasianmost piano pieces are. I’m saying that it’s impressive that his runs are all perfectly in time. This guy’s internal metronome is near perfect while so many other great piano players struggle to keep that drum like precision in their sixteenths and triplets.

I think the way he plays it is far from having a constant tempo (in the sense that a metronome would), but it's not trying to. It speeds up a lot, but great jazz (or even rock) performances played by humans often do vary tempo a lot, however what matters is how it feels in the continuity, and the groove is perfect.

@@WoodyGamesUKexactly. He just has a perfect feel and his runs are all almost perfectly in time.

This is beyond improv, Brubeck himself would have been in awe.

Hey, just a quick question, how come you never use your right thumb? You do great without doing so, just curious.

It is used every now and again, i don't know, it's just preference i guess! haha!

Thank you for the wonderful performance and amazing music. Your music makes my and my little sister TB's life in Korea happier, merrier, and brighter :-) You are really awesome!!

Thank you for posting your wonderful performance. I remember Horwitz hiding his little finger while playing. I tried to put my hand in that position, but I couldn't. I came to the conclusion that he was really an ET. I am telling you this secret. Don't tell anybody. Ha ha.

This is amazing! By far the best performance of this song i have seen, how did you learn to play this way?

Hey thanks a lot man! Mankey! My man!

same Ive been coming back to it for years.

kzfaq.info/get/bejne/gs55odqc1prScas.html

8 years later and I’m still coming back to this! This man is a treasure

Kkkkkkk

Good job bro

Ricky Sim Underrated lol

I SCREAMED LMAOOO

*4:03 is more accurate

I just died

Hahaha!!! Oh I had to take a knee from this comment!

I know, right? That transition was awesome as hell

Agreed

Facts

Also the lick over the B section at 1:56? Fukin amazing

any clue which chords is he playing in that transition? sounded amazing

He has a right thumb, but it doesn't seem to work.I think he has a disability.He overcame his disability.

Is it working tho

I use the same "technique" :3

@@b3at2 Wow.. Just leave.

@@stephyxermion1141 agreed

it killed me lol

Oh my god that was the funniest thing I've seen this week

It's the same look Muhammad Ali gives in one of his exhibition matches where he dodges a ton of punches, then hits his opponent with this look and a shoulder shimmy lol

lol big hands

No, he uses his thumb its just tucked underneath his hand.

@@eggy_tran589 nope he's even playing sixths with 2 and 4 0:38

faith m and I struggle to do a fifth with 1 and 5 :/ (small hands)

@@orvinal2883 huge

Looks so awesome... I want to play like this

gabu gabe actually i have seen other jazz pianist playing like that either. Might be the technique for jazz

Left Handed it's not

hmm i downloaded chords today. I tried this weird technique too. Worked good because of the wide chords. I wouldn't reach all keys and it feels good

But it's not a jazz technique

Baas B. It's called looseness

It's called not using his right thumb LOL

He's using his thumb tucked under which this key encourages on the Cs Fs and As

Thelonious Monk also moves his fingers in a strange way, and he was a master pianist

True

i think that he does use his right thumb, but not in the usual way. he uses in some chords under his hand. very cool technique.

George i think he should provide his technique

George lol real jazz piano is way harder.

LOL "real jazz piano."

Guppypants I have to agree, he is a genius but real jazz is way harder.

I'm a realist. I enjoy his work but have you ever seen a jazz pianist playing live in a band? Playing in a band is more difficult as well cuz you have to make sure you're not dragging or rushing. And y are you so salty dude?

What is the chord progression ?

Totally agree, never heard a better piano cover actually ! Awesome

Paulsteel by a landslide

Paulsteel no no no ... watch Michel ' s cover than

Have you seen michel's camilo cover?

Mebe!

yes

Certainly!

Omg yes do it, you sound amazing!

TJhandford524 yes! Yes! YES!

David thanks brother!!

@@TJhandford524 ❤

Thelonius Monk and Horace Parlan has unique technique

Well all of them are pretty much directly related to the blues

👍

😂😂

The thumb is there, it’s just tucked under, you can see it once in a while

Lol Xd yeah he wasn’t really asking he was making a joke

@@ella.travels not a very good one.

traVmire. Your comment reminds me of a man who used to drink brake fluid. A friend warned him that he could get addicted, to which he replied 'nah...I can stop anytime I like'!

DonnyOutdoors lel not that hard.

DonnyOutdoors a month at max

mug3n you know what improvisation is? Playing pieces you already know in a random order. I do too lole, not as hard as it sounds. His creativity and skill is very refined though.

mug3n not a piece as in a full song, but a piece of a song. Small fragments that you can combine in lots of ways.

mug3n he is very good don't get me wrong.

+Joe Greenwood By the way, Dave Brubeck didn't play from notes either. Take Five was actually written by Dave Brubeck's friend, Paul Desmond, though Brubeck quartet (which included Desmond on saxophone) was noted for playing it.

It would still be helpful to have a sheet music score of his version

s3.amazonaws.com/ptg-public-files/2017-02-26+take+five+revisions+-+++++++++Full+Score.pdf Some guy in an above comment hired a guy to make this. It's pretty damn close

you are a legend sadinoel

@@leosmart116 Thank you so much, man!

Yeah, in the reflection off of the piano

Yes, it can be seen in a few frames

ThePianoLad lol Right?

When he does a glissando you can

You guys all went to look for it

hey i Want to know what cords you use because some of them aren't in the original song and they sound so amazing, i can't lock em or by ear and ican't see exactly where your hands are.

Hlo sir! I want to talk you Can you tell me your any contact or send me email to singhdilpreet390@gmail.com This is my channel Bhai bhai Song cover here 👇👇👇 kzfaq.info/get/bejne/p8-BlaRk3a3IoZ8.html

Awesome! So glad to see you're still posting stuff!

Just mainly 2,3,4 fingers

You are a monster bro I’m really proud

Even the ending is one of the coolest endings ive heard. Waaaauuuuuw. Once I am really good, I will take from you! Thank you so much for your musical contribution to the world. Fantastic!

It's Terrance Shider, he has his own channel where he uploads regularly.

you can only critisize 9/10ths of his hand technique, right thumb does not exist

@@parzingtheasian I see what you did there lol

Search for 'take five musescore' on Google there's two really good transcriptions

My exact thoughts

AI is almost here to do the job

​@@irony_2I know AI will be able to reproduce or create original material perfectly but if I know something is AI, I won't enjoy it at all. There's no thought behind it and no soul. I know I wouldn't be able to tell but when that time comes where you don't know if a song is made by AI or not (and we're not at that stage yet because AI sucks at writing music), I will always pick the human made stuff above AI. Some AI paintings look way better than human made paintings but I still wouldn't buy them over the human stuff simply because if there's no thought behind it, it has no meaning no matter how good the painting looks.

Et les bémols ?

Im wondering the same thing

please find osmeone

Eb, Ab7(b9) add #5, Db7, Gb13 Maybe not exact but that’s really close

Same here

try this, in any key play: root ,3, 4, flat 5, 5, 7, root so in the key of C minor it would be, C, Eb, F, Gb,G, Bb, C. Play this in a scale up and down. it is a minor blues harmonic. It will help you with improvisation because it is so versatile.

+TJhandford524 You should be playing on world stages bro.You are PHENOMENAL

TJhandford524 my teacher. says that blues scale also contains the maj 7, is that also okay?
