Perfect amount of complexity and simplicity in these vids. They are inspiring enough for me to try out the licks on my own, but challenging enough to get in that pondering / musical problem solving mode.
I think to say I'm ecstatic over this short video is a huge understatement. This is my favorite jazz recording of all time, and the primary reason I wanted to learn piano in the first place. I don't think I'm alone in hoping you'll consider a follow-up, or expanded video for us to continue learning this piece. Bravo and a standing ovation to you, professor. 💖
i didnt realise this video was so recent till just now, im so lucky you released this just as i was trying to learn the piano part to this piece! so far you seem to be the only person to have uploaded duke ellingtons part properly, and for that i am so grateful. thank you !!
It gets even better. This guy is part of the rhythm section of the amazing band Vulfpeck. Check out Tee Time for a Woody feature and Dean Town for a bass feature (written by Woody) Cory Wong and Animal Spirits are both fun
I watch a lot of jazz/funk piano lessons on youtube and I couldn't imagine a more perfect video. And taught by my favorite keyboard player out there no less! Woody you're my hero, I can't wait for more Prof G vids 😍
Thank you very much!!! I love this album, I bought it when I was 13 years old and I still amazes me. Their simplicity (and complexity at the same time). Super beutiful! Thanks!
these are really great videos. thank you for showing us reasons other than just the beautiful melody that make in a sentimental mood a quintessential part of the american jazz songbook.
This intro is actually a Strayhorn lick to boot. He used to play this lick in some of his other songs when he'd collab with others just prior to 1963, though he didn't use this lick on the Peaceful Side I don't believe. Does anyone know any of the names of the songs this lick also shows up in from Strayhorn? I used to remember the name(s) but I seem to have lost by notes somewhere and I was hoping to learn those other charts too. Thanks!
this is one of the greatest pieces of music in my opinion. thank you for that little nugget ! Would you also have the time to do the whole thing and go more in depth with the chords ? these midieval guys had something special :) If you enjoy this sound ... do you know John Williams Jazz Beginnings from 1958 ? There is so so much gold in it, i try to transcribe pieces of it, but it is mostly way above my head... for example "Tenderly" or "Here s what im here for" Much appreciated
Man I've been looking for a transcription of this. They're weirdly rare and the ones that do exist are simplified - for example they don't include the high G in the first sequence.
Great video! Very informative - Next time would be great if you could have a piano diagram above to indicate what notes you are playing. Thanks from London
Could you detail the note's a little?It was too fast for me. Slow down and maybe write them out because it's useful to see your hands but I'm on guitar and I need actual notes to learn it. Thanks, great tune, the version I want.
"Jazz for little kids and other creatures" that's an album title right there.
I felt like a kid after seeing those moves explained by Professor Goss. How am I supposed to learn half of this material before the midterm????
I might steal that
Glad to be alive within the Gossaissance.
The Describers renaigossance
Fun word to say
please woody... i’m trying to lead a productive and healthy life here. how am i supposed to focus after seeing your hips do the “sir duke” maneuver?
He "groofed" with his hips.
“But back then....he, didn’t know that yet” 😂 hilarious how he says that. This guy is my hero
SIR DUKE OF MEDIEVAL TIMES
These are fantastic. Please tell me you've got some Monk coming up.
Perfect amount of complexity and simplicity in these vids. They are inspiring enough for me to try out the licks on my own, but challenging enough to get in that pondering / musical problem solving mode.
is this gonna be on the exam mr goss
professor*
He didn’t spend 8 years in front of a Wurlitzer to be called Mr.
That "Sir Duke" joke right at the beginning had me dying.
Great video on a legendary recording and piano player! Thank you :)
This changed my life the first time I heard it.
Keep them coming. If Duke Ellington were still alive, he would most definitely watch your tutorials to improve his playing.
0:25 Genius play
This song has got to be one of the most sublime, breezy arrangements ever recorded.
One of my top favorite songs.
a classy lecture thank you professor

I’m so happy your doing all of this prof G

thank you prof g, ever since hearing that intro I wanted to play it but struggled to figure it out for myself.
I can't get enough of these!
i didnt realise this video was so recent till just now, im so lucky you released this just as i was trying to learn the piano part to this piece! so far you seem to be the only person to have uploaded duke ellingtons part properly, and for that i am so grateful. thank you !!
I assume this is the same piano the Christmas album was recorded on? It sounds fantastic.
Thanks Professor Goss!
I’m loving this series
Thank you Prof Woodrow Gossling
*Sees video pop on recommendations*
Nice, another jazz channel.

Top 10 Greatest Uses of Sir Duke
Beautiful. Loved the subtitle note about duke thinking like an orchestrator. Have you considered an evening lecture on Monk, Art Tatum or Sun Ra?
thank you so much for this blessed content
Thank you very much!!! I love this album, I bought it when I was 13 years old and I still amazes me. Their simplicity (and complexity at the same time). Super beutiful! Thanks!
Hey, Professor Goss!
Woody Goss is an absolute legend
these are really great videos. thank you for showing us reasons other than just the beautiful melody that make in a sentimental mood a quintessential part of the american jazz songbook.
Professor, you still haven’t uploaded the lecture slides, could you get them up?
Thank you in advance!
I didn"t no I was missing something from my life when these didn't exist but I definitly was.
You didn't what?
Wooow. This really cleared up some things for me. Thank you. I too request some Monktunes!
Please do a tutorial for "I'm Confessin'" from Solo Monk. Also, please post Solo Rhodes on spotify!
One of my faves jazz albums
Amazing content especially right now thank you Sir Woody
This intro is actually a Strayhorn lick to boot. He used to play this lick in some of his other songs when he'd collab with others just prior to 1963, though he didn't use this lick on the Peaceful Side I don't believe.

I used to remember the name(s) but I seem to have lost by notes somewhere and I was hoping to learn those other charts too. Thanks!
Dude, do more! I have learned so much from this!
Excellent tutorial prof G! Just listened to this album for the first time today :)
I wish non-musicians enjoy this video as much as I did
Please keep making these. Love your take on tunes.
I love these voicings.. Just like on Fleurette africaine with Mingus. Thanks Prof G
Loving the lectures professor goss!! super hyped for all the stuff youre putting out lately
This is also like, actual comedy gold. the shirt scratch cracked me up good shit
this is one of the greatest pieces of music in my opinion. thank you for that little nugget ! Would you also have the time to do the whole thing and go more in depth with the chords ? these midieval guys had something special :)
If you enjoy this sound ... do you know John Williams Jazz Beginnings from 1958 ? There is so so much gold in it, i try to transcribe pieces of it, but it is mostly way above my head... for example "Tenderly" or "Here s what im here for"
Much appreciated
This is some wholesome Woody content right here
I admit it. I can't play like Woody, but I keep watching the videos for the sweet intro music.
we're lucky to have you as a teacher brotha. hope to run into you in chicago.
Your piano sounds so pretty 😊
Been listening a lot to this tune of late so this was perfect
Thank you this album is amazing!
professor goss, thank god you’re back
awesome content
Had to stop getting ready for work to watch this
Same
Please keep making tutorials. They are dope!!
Insanely good
Thanks! Will you be covering the bridge or Duke’s solo?
Hi Professor. Thanks for the informative lecture on medieval music. Is the why the Count Basie was Blue and Sentimental back in those olden days?
Thanks for this, wonderfully expert and simple
Man I've been looking for a transcription of this. They're weirdly rare and the ones that do exist are simplified - for example they don't include the high G in the first sequence.
Wow, this is appreciated, thanks for making this.
Thank you Professor, very cool
More Ellington videos please
Great video! Very informative - Next time would be great if you could have a piano diagram above to indicate what notes you are playing. Thanks from London
Class is in session!!
Professor Goss, could we please do a lecture on Art Tatum and his crazy jazz classical stuff like Humoresque?
That's beautiful
My favorite teacher
Thank you professor Goss.
thank you so much for this professor
Quality content
Thanks for this man. I wanted to transcribe this a while ago but I forgot. Now I don't have to :)
Thank you professor!
Lovely
apparently the sound engineer asked for a take 2 and duke was like "no"
One of my first jazz albums ever! Thanks Mr Goss, can we have some Monk and maybe some Oscar Peterson?
Can you do a breakdown of Monk's caravan? Thx love u professor
If I ever go to music school it would be so cool to have professor gross as a professor.
Cool, keep them coming! :-)
Professor Goss, thesis counsellor for Doctor Who... :)
We played this in jazz band it was a jam
Thanks professor!
How many times will I watch this video solely for the intro
thank you prof Goss!!
immediate subscribe brilliant content and funny
Was Duke a big Chopin buff? Getting a lot of Chopin vibes, hearing the keys isolated.
Holy shit dude that @chopin had me dying
I wonder if this is that guy who wrote Dean Town.
A classic Woody Goss line
what's the music at the beginning?
How do I get the sheet music I NEED THE SHEET MUSIC😭
Thank you woooody you’re great!!’
Could you detail the note's a little?It was too fast for me. Slow down and maybe write them out because it's useful to see your hands but I'm on guitar and I need actual notes to learn it. Thanks, great tune, the version I want.
Professor Goss, I miss a lot your Venus-Sun, astronomer's social distance lesson :-(
The low subscriber count of this channel is unacceptable
Maybe some Phineas Newborn? Bill Evans?? Ryo Fukui?!?! Gahh.. I just want to hear more of you talking jazz piano.
