Chris Dawson - "Beautiful Love"

[@sharman814]

Lovely! No missing the trio here-

[@b33thov3ndangkhoa]

Its hard to find solo Jazz piano performances like this . Thank you for doing this !!!

[@ChrisDawsonMusic]

Thank you - appreciate it.

[@AlfonsoGugliucci]

What a fantastic mosaic of harmony, technique and musical expression. Every song played by you is always a true musical journey

[@JasonDeCristofaro]

Marvelous playing and ideas!

[@AntoinePressiat69]

Swing, soft, light and quiet.. so nice and well played. Many thanks Chris.

[@Whateverworksism]

This is wonderful Chris, 6 years on and it still deserves the occasional listen. I think it's because you've managed to not make a copy of Evans or a copy of Barron or a copy of X but instead you've made your own version, a Chris Dawson version. And luckily, that version is good! Thank you again.

[@Whateverworksism]

And I'm still here... Your playing is so wonderful Chris.

[@Allibie]

Wow this is really amazing I love how you jump around so much it gives off good and the short bursts of lots of short notes played together really tops it off

[@JudyK1]

Really nice rendition--hope to see more.

[@fabioaggio]

Fantastic. Great playing. I'm impressed

[@Lot2learn]

This is an amazing performance with incredible depth and clarity. Fantastic!

[@grantsimpson]

Nice job Chris. Beautiful. I've always loved those Bill Evans colors and you've got them down.

[@juliawinback4781]

Awesome! Great inspiration

[@ChrisDawsonMusic]

Thanks! Being the player you are, your words mean a lot.

[@rogerdsmith]

Wonderful Performance! Also kudos to whoever tuned and voiced the piano.

[@ChrisDawsonMusic]

Awesome. I'm glad you enjoy it and I appreciate the feedback.

[@jlarrymusic]

This is wonderful I love your work, I love the way you embellish your voicings and you swing!!!!!!!! You always know when someone swings well when your head starts to bob involuntarily!!!! Great job brother!

[@eduardoelizondo3487]

Another banger.

[@maracuja55]

Wonderfull !

[@7notemode]

Chris,your posts have been on fire lately! It is such a different side of your playing. This has such emotional resonance. I really loved it.

[@MarkEisenman]

Beautiful

[@WannesVanderhoeven]

Excellent...

[@Lingerick]

very dense, harmonically rich rendition! your version is an Inspiration for me to pick up the tune and work it through again.

[@BobMazzo]

really great, Chris.

[@ChrisDawsonMusic]

Absolutely right. Thanks for reminding me about Tatum's wonderful recording of Beautiful Love. I was actually listening to his version long before the more "modern" ones...but I haven't put it on in a while.

[@JacoF17]

Wonderful !!!

[@ninagreyn]

This is magical

[@ChrisDawsonMusic]

Thanks!

[@MrStasdoc]

It is beautiful performance!

[@ChrisDawsonMusic]

Thanks. I'm glad you like my music. I've got a little "to-do" list going already, but what tune are you thinking?

[@rik-keymusic160]

really really good !! i hear some Bill Evans too ;)

[@ChrisDawsonMusic]

Thanks Richard! Yes, Evans is one of my favorites.

[@ToshdogII]

Very nice ...

[@Myaccountishacked]

Love it 😀

[@ChrisDawsonMusic]

Thanks so much Jacob. I really appreciate it.

[@SheetmusicLessons]

Hey man, great feeling ;)

[@ChrisDawsonMusic]

Thank you!

[@ChrisDawsonMusic]

I'm glad you like it - thank you.

[@lukeallwood]

This is a truly stunning rendition, thanks for posting - I realise this was 8 years ago - I wish I'd seen it 8 years ago! I'm going to try and practice a few of your ideas, if you don't mind! You're an amazing player, I hope you're still enjoying playing these days.

[@ChrisDawsonMusic]

Hi Luke. I'm glad you enjoyed it, and thank you so much for your kind message..

[@hendrik007007]

very very cool ! txs.

[@ChrisDawsonMusic]

I appreciate it.

[@ChrisDawsonMusic]

Thank you. Yeah, it's hard not to be influenced by Bill Evans' recording. He's one of my very favorite players.

[@alandakerharley]

Lovely Chris. Wish I could reach 10ths in my left hand, makes all the difference. Spreading just doesn't work. Anyway, great. Gonna listen to some more now. Keep on posting.

[@ChrisDawsonMusic]

Thank you Alan.

[@ChrisDawsonMusic]

I really appreciate your comment (I'm a fan or your channel...great work). Thanks.

[@luisconti6237]

Great improvisation; I love the tune and feel that your performance is an excellent blend of swing, harmonizations and taste. Note a note wasted! You would not have a transcription of this, would you?

[@maramazone]

Nice work! I've only just discovered you via David Sill's CD 'Blue's the New Green'- Good stuff as well. All the best! :)

[@ChrisDawsonMusic]

Thanks!

[@ChrisDawsonMusic]

Appreciate it. Thanks.

[@arwahsapi]

It's been 8 years no news about you. Is everything OK?

[@musicalrt]

Very reminiscent of Evans...!

[@ВладимирНосов-н7г]

Super....

[@ChrisDawsonMusic]

Thanks!

[@jamesten]

And we have to give a nod to Mr. Arthur Tatum for selecting these songs in a way which inspired the next generations. Sublime.

[@BobMazzo]

Chris, I think people would pay for your piano video tutorials. Please post! We are eager to learn. :-)

[@stevet2411]

So Chris...when are you going to post something up again? It has been way too long. Great version of this, BTW. I've included it in my Beautiful Love piano collection for study.

[@ChrisDawsonMusic]

+Steve T I've been a little 'out of it' with KZbin, but I will be posting some new songs shortly. Glad you enjoy this clip.

[@HenriquedePaulaNascimento]

A W E S O M E !

[@ChrisDawsonMusic]

That's nice, thanks.

[@barrowmeoct04]

I have come back to enjoy this several times. Have really enjoyed your style of playing since I discovered your channel several years back. Have just started to try to figure out what you do with your left hand as a start. There are 2 others on my list of left hand study which seem to be in the same field, David Newton and Rossano Sportiello, but slowly slowly.

[@ChrisDawsonMusic]

Awesome, thanks so much. I don't know David (but will check him out) and I love Rossano. He's really great. All the best with your playing.

[@DorisSchw]

[@milanhouse2240]

Masterful! Who did you study with?

[@Tcabezon]

Hey!, this is very nice, I've had a wonderful time listening to your videos, amazing player!, do you take some requests? hehe

Hi Chris, I have made a new video of stride piano. I'd like to know your feeling about it... @

[@ChrisDawsonMusic]

I'm sorry Cedric, I haven't been good about checking my KZbin messages or account over the past few years. I gave your song a listen and thought it was really, really nice!

@@ChrisDawsonMusic Thanks a lot! I have been listening to your music for years! Cedric, a big fan!

[@ChrisDawsonMusic]

@ I also really enjoyed your Bach/Stride piece and others too (Alexander's Ragtime Band).

@@ChrisDawsonMusic Thanks!!! If you want the pdf, write me an email ([e-mail])

[@xala64coverrescoring67]

copie of bill evans??

[@ChrisDawsonMusic]

While I am influenced by Evans (and others) in this performance, this my own original treatment of the melody and improvisation.

[@engelsQ]

Beautiful
