OPEN MIC WEEK 37 - TAKE FIVE - DAVE BRUBECK

in #openmic7 years ago (edited)

This is another favorite of mine to play due to the unusual quintuple 5/4 time signature.
Thanks for listening! :-)

One of the most recognized 5/4 songs around. Excellent!

Thank you!

Your welcome

I've always loved "Take 5".
You played this very well!
(As in good.)

Thank you!!!
Take 5 is definitely one of my favorites to play, such a great piece.

That was incredible. I have attempted to play the piano before, so I can appreciate that you have some talent right there.

Thank you for your kind words and also a big thank you for resteeming my post!
I really appreciate that! :-)

This is cool! I play piano and I know it's super hard to get both hands working solidly in different timings like you did there. Upvoted!

Thanks! It was a bit tough to learn at first!

That was nice, wished it was a little bit longer. And you look great too.
Do check out this heartwarming performance by a deaf singer

Thank you! I'll check it out :)

You are welcome

Love that song. it is one of my absolute favorites. Nice job playing it. All I'm missing is Paul Desmond's sax and the great Joe Morello's timeless shuffle.

Thanks! It's definitely one of my favorites as well. Such great and unique composing on Paul Desmond's part!

You may enjoy this that I wrote back in college while playing with meter and enjambment.

That's really good. You should post that here with the Poetry tag!

I love to play this one too. Dave Brubeck was a gem.

Thank you! :-)

Great job! I love piano. I learned a little when I was young and just now started up again! Hopefully one day I'll be that good at it! ;)

Thank you! That's how I feel about guitar. I keep ignoring it for months at a time then when I pick it back up my fingers hurt and I suck all over again! lol

Haha! Yeah, I do that too sometimes. But open mic really helps put a boost in my inspiration! ;) I'd love to do more acoustic shows to help my guitar skills, since I only sing in my other band!

I'd love to do any shows, but I don't due to anxiety because....crazy lol
I listened to a bunch of open mic posts last night, so many talented people, it really is inspiring!

Yes there is! And I completely understand about the anxiety... I've been lucky to have a great support group help me through it. That and my extreme love of music, of course. 😋 I've wanted to be a singer since I was tiny! There's even a recording on cassette of my father and I when I was around 4 or 5. He would play guitar and let me sing my heart out! I wish I had the same confidence I had back then! Haha!

That's so cute! I teach piano and my students have such amazing confidence to get up at recitals and sing or play. I need to borrow some of their confidence! Ha

Hey, that's my voice!!!!

Hey, that's my cackling laugh!
