ABOUT PAUL TOBEY
==================================================
Paul Tobey, a multi-award-winning jazz pianist, has led a remarkable career filled with both artistic triumphs and unforeseen challenges.
By the year 2001, Paul had already released eight albums, becoming the sole Canadian jazz artist signed to New York's esteemed Arkadia Jazz label. However, fate dealt him a devastating blow when the Musicians Clinics of Canada diagnosed him with severe tendonitis in both forearms. This was a diagnosis that put an end to his jazz career and delivered a crushing emotional blow. Shortly thereafter, he faced another daunting obstacle: severe Tinnitus.
With a young family in tow, Paul embarked on a journey of reinvention. After a 2 year bout of depression, he regrouped and pivoted. He took some professional training and got certified as a public speaker and business trainer. This is how he provided for his family for the next 25 years.
The pandemic enabled Paul time to return to the piano. At the age of 61 he created this channel and continues to serve jazz musicians worldwide. He is set to release a new album - the 1st since is Juno Nominated Release "Street Culture" back in 2001. We hope this serves as inspiration and a reminder that it's never too late for renewal and second chances. And if you want to get back to your music, it's never too late!!!

Straight UP - my wife Nancy wanted me to scrap this video. She felt it leaned more on the technical aspects of listening vs. the joy of listening and what is happening during the tune. We've been married 29 years, so there is a key to our happiness. LOL. When there is uncertainty, we run with it. You tell us if this is the type of content you enjoy and if you want more of it. Thanks for chiming in! Don't forget to SUBSCRIBE, HIT THE THUMBS UP AND COMMENT! - Sending you all lots of creative energy this week! ❤ Paul
I think your wife was mistaken. I thought the video would be too technical, but from my perspective, it was really fairly basic and straightforward.
So, I learnt at a young age, that appreciation of musical composition starts with not just listening but active listening, intelligent listening, being able to appreciate how a piece breaks down and comes together. It gave me a greater listening pleasure, enjoying the technical as well as the emotional effects of the musical piece, thanks Paul it's good to be reminded of this 👍
Great addition Stuart!
Very well explained and illustrated!
@@curtpiazza1688 Glad you enjoyed 😊
Paul, I just listened to your previous recording of Round Midnight on Arkadia Records! Your version of Round Midnight is off the charts! I can’t wait to purchase your future recording release!❤
@@pnojazz Just saw this comment! Thanks for this 😁
Good information
Excellent explanation. thank you from California.
Glad you enjoyed 😊
Sorry, I am just a jazz singer 😊, I love jazz and your video as well...
Jazz singers needn't apologize for being jazz singers. Thanks for stopping by, i appreciate it.
Can you provide the name of the recording and the album it’s on? Thx Paul!
Great :) I have a question how does the recording of such a piece look like? I understand that you play all together. But what does it look like in case you play a "bad" note? Something that you don't like. Do you record the whole piece from the beginning or is there a way to correct a particular part?
BTW great tune :)
If the track is isolated meaning no other instruments appear on the track and microphones are not bleeding into each other. And you can play closely to what was intended, then you can do what is called punching in or overdubbing to fix small sections that have mistakes.
@@Jazzmentl Thank you :)
