Topic: Little Waltz (Pianoteq)

here's a beautiful tune by Ron Carter, "Little Waltz." it's amazing to me that he was able to create such a compelling tune with such a simple melody.  definitely a lot more than it seems!  unfortunately it's not played all that much ...

Beautiful!
You really get this music to sound as a dream. Your improvisation from about the middle of the piece is growing so well, and from about 4.50 the ending starts with a slower, slower tempo and you feel like you're sleepy and slowly dozing off with the ending chords.
It was a nice feeling because I was tired when listening.  It fit perfectly at the situation. Love how you got this simple peace alive in a beautiful way.
Thank you budo,

Best wishes,

Stig

Your improvisation on this Standard is fantastic. So simple but really so very beautiful ...
Thank you very much Budo, you gave me a moment of happiness in a rather nervous day.

Oh my, this is a gorgeous rendition! Such a great piece to lose oneself in!!!! Your improv on this is also impeccable—so very well integrated & beautifully rich. Absolutely lovely to listen to as I wind up my day!
