Lament: Journey Through The Real Book

[@edsanz9377]

Like the analysis and explanation. I respect all that coming from a really good performer exposing his feelings as he plays and shows lots of sesitivity to the feelings that the song has. Congratulations and thanks a lot for sharing all this with us!

Incredible performance Ron!! You are such an inspiration and will be returning to this series for the rest of my life!

[@rondrotoskeyboardimprov9453]

Thanks so much, Joseph! I think I'll be doing this series for a long, long time as well :)

This series is amazing !

[@rondrotoskeyboardimprov9453]

Thank you Scrandy!

[@zdenaprostecka6630]

Absolutely loved it Ron. I am totally inspired to learn this song.

[@rondrotoskeyboardimprov9453]

Yes, give it a try!

[@davidgerber9317]

I don't recall hearing this song before. Great rendition of a great composition! Another ABAC tune is "Here's That Rainy Day". Thanks for your hundreds of top-notch videos!

[@rondrotoskeyboardimprov9453]

That's such a beautiful song, David! I played that on Broadway in the show Swinging On A Star which featured Johnny Burke's lyrics.

[@AFSoar01]

Beautiful!

[@rondrotoskeyboardimprov9453]

Thanks John! There's nothing like playing in minor keys.

[@davidgerber9317]

Okay...more ABAC...such obscure little ditties such as "A Foggy Day', "Moon River", "Isn't it Romantic", "Waltz for Debby", "I Thought about You".....and probably hundreds more!

[@rondrotoskeyboardimprov9453]

Definitely!

I love the little insights you throw on these! Just stumbled across this series and I guess I'm also journeying through now!

[@rondrotoskeyboardimprov9453]

Thanks, Justin, and welcome aboard!

Beautiful rendition, Ron. Another ABAC ballad I can think of is "Laura."

[@rondrotoskeyboardimprov9453]

Yes -Laura! I was actually playing that tune just a few weeks ago, but couldn't think of any during the video. It'll be interesting to see if anyone adds more ballads with this structure.

[@larrysaidman1004]

From 'minor to major'. Are you referring to Cole Porter's Every time We Say Goodbye?

[@rondrotoskeyboardimprov9453]

Yes, Larry! Although Porter said it the other way, "from major to minor." Congrats!

Dolphin dance is a 32 bars tune.
