Summer of 42 - jazz piano solo

[@1046Fay]

Many years ago, I worked on a passenger ship in one of the many bars onboard, and each evening when I began my shift, the pianist, knowing how much I love this piece, would play it for me as I entered the bar...by doing so, he always made me feel special, and so began my shift in a happy state of mind...wonderful

[@Bradhere02]

I agree Laura it took me to another place and time... back to my childhood days with my mother, father, sister and friends...

[@Shubael1809]

just sublime................ one of the best renditions of this classic I've heard.

[@DERedhead65]

just Beautiful and timeless like the movie Summer of '42, remember that one from my youth.... Jennifer O'Neill and Gary Grimes...

[@guydanielclotilde4861]

One of my favorites songs. Thank you so much.

[@AlfonsoGugliucci]

Thanks too!

[@anabbovan]

Almost like my summer of 2009... :) So wonderfully smooth, as jazz is at its best. Thanks. warm regards from Belgrade, Serbia

[@lauragonzalez6157]

Beautiful! It took me to another time and place,I was lost in the music. Thank you~

[@7notemode]

I loved the arpeggios at the beginning. Somehow you give this song a slight italian flavor. I can't explain it, but it is there. Excellent.

[@samuelpharris9973]

I find this style very relaxing and enjoyable

[@pianoplayinfool]

That is one of the most beautiful versions of summer of 42 that I have ever heard.....so tastefully done, with such a delicate touch....Bravisimo!

[@OroloroSM]

Lovely..this theme was running in my head this cool night.

[@kutuzoff1812]

I can't but agree with all those comments below. This is the best improvised masterpiece I've ever heard. Would you be so kind to publish the notes. No matter would it be pdf, midi or just macro photos of your handwriting, i think, generations would be grateful to you for educating them how to create such unique and incredible emotions. On my opinion, this version of the song should be written down for ages as Chopin's Beethoven's and others' masterpieces

[@SarrasaniPianoCircus]

Oh, excellent playing. Congratulations to your arrangment, your touch and musical taste, your technique, and also the audio and the video quality...... 5 stars, Bravissimo!

[@dsilkasilkiieharris356]

Musically technique perfected!

[@swillhite2002]

I liked u far before u ever recorded "THE SUMMER KNOWS" and long after, I keep returning to it. I love this song so much, very few times in my life, I've ever heard that song as special as the way u play it. U truly give it something extra special. Life goes by so fast, I wish, a moment, and often imagine siting with u at the piano for an evening, having wonderful musical conversations, u are truly one of my favorite jazz pianists in the world. I always wish u life, and great happiness my friend

[@maryramseyy]

Wow, I love this. You are amazing.

[@mikewethern1214]

I lost my wife of 47 years in April. When I hear this piece I break down. Such Beauty and grace like my beautiful wife! I will be back here again tonight to listen and weep of beautiful memories. Namaste

[@AlfonsoGugliucci]

My condolences, sorry for your loss. Music helps us keep our memories even closer, and sometimes when we listen to it, it makes us feel like our loved ones were there listening with us. Music unites souls.

[@EricEnvy]

[@sandb1867]

You have the touch. Superb.

[@donkingcpa]

That is one of the finest renditions of that piece I have ever heard. You must be a professional musician. If you ever get a scanner I would love to see this piece and many of your other transcriptions.

[@AlfonsoGugliucci]

Thanks donkingcpa, at moment I have no scanner, but sometimes I upload the midi-files of some of my versions, which can be converted to score.For example Sophisticated Lady - Piano improvisation. Just have a look when you have time :)

[@dodiese09]

Absolument magnifique !!

[@OCRATHLETE]
