Thanks for letting me know, since this is exactly my goal! You're learning and improving as a pianist and enjoying the process.

This is fantastic, thank you for making this available. I play guitar but just hearing you talk about the song is great.

Wow! Thanks so much! I was requested by my jazz tutor to prepare Impressions for our next session, and I didn't even know how to start. Your video was enlightening!

[@rondrotoskeyboardimprov9453]

That's awesome, Noam! I'm glad you now have a window into learning this great tune, and have fun playing it!

Just amazing! It was great to watch your left hand to see how you kept the chords interesting over so many measures. On the Dm7, it looked like you threw in some 9ths in and would jump up to the Em7 every once in a while? Thanks so much for sharing this!

[@rondrotoskeyboardimprov9453]

Thanks John! Yep, that what the LH is doing. The Em is often played by "planing" 4th voicings through the mode, like on So What.
