Paul Tobey on Piano Recorded this June 4th 2023 in Niagara on the Lake Ontario Canada. Take Five is considered to be the most popular jazz composition of all time. There's not too much to say about it, except I personally find it quite challenging to commit to a recording. Not so much that it's in 5/4 time, but playing it solo piano requires a fair amount of built-in swing feel in addition to the 5/4 time. Lots of people play it with more of a straight 8th feel, but I like to swing it as much as possible. It's certainly not something that I picked up overnight but have been playing around with odd time signatures for years. The only thing I hope to do with this tune is to make music, not overplay it, and try not to step on my own toes 🤔 WHAT TO WATCH NEXT ============================== Take Five Piano Tutorial - Where 99% of Pianists Go Wrong!    • Take Five Piano Tutorial - Where 99% of Pi...   Download my Paul Desmond Transcription Take Five - Take Five PDF (FREE) ========================================== https://jazzmentl.com/take-five-solo-...
