Giant Steps – Latin Style with MIDI keys

Visit my web site at www.lot2learn.com for midi files, notation files and backing tracks used in the making of my videos. I posted a swing version of Giant Steps a couple of years ago and have had many requests for another version – so here it is. I decided to do this with a “Latin style” rhythm and have added the virtual midi keyboard visualization to help with deciphering my solo. I attempt to construct a solo that is “musical” and not just a series of “licks” and scales. Phrasing becomes important as well as moving in and out of the key changes smoothly. As time permits I will try to add annotations. Sorry for the pixelation and video quality. I am working to resolve those issues.
