Lennie Tristano - Scene and Variations “Carol“, named after daughter, Carol. This is Tristano's 1961 piano rendition, and is based on the chord progression of “My Melancholy Baby“.

And he's been a wonderful mentor, teacher and frien...
Chris Dawson - "Beautiful Love"

Originally a waltz, "Beautiful Love" was written in 1931 by Victor Young and was featured in the 1932 film, "The Mummy". During high school, I first heard Bill Evans' recording of it played in 4/4 time signature, and it has stuck that way with me ever since. This is my on the spot, improvised version.

One of the very first jazz standards I learned was "All of Me", composed by Gerald Marks and Seymour Simons in 1931. It's chord changes are user-friendly and I just think the tune swings. Here's my on the spot, improvised rendition.

"Calico Rag" (1914) composed by Nat Johnson (1883 - 1921). I was recently asked to memorize this song for a recording session and thought it would be fun to post it here on TH-cam. I developed a love for the piano through ragtime as a kid, and always enjoy returning to my roots.

Hey Chris, this is great ! I been following you for probably over 5 years now. Used to watch you play all that stride stuff. I picked up a lot from you in fact. 👏
Chris: you are one of the world's best stride pianists! Greetings from Sweden!
Bravissimaaaaa.... 🎉
Hay que tener vuestra clase para tocar este repertorio. Amo la música, el jazz épico y a vosotros!!!
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
What a stretch in the left hand! That left 5th finger does NOT have a mind all of its own - it is under masterful control!
Nice piano. Teddy Wilson influences?
Absolutely. Teddy’s one of my all-time favorites!
Hi Chris, your original post of 'All Of Me' was one of the peformances that inspired me to go and complete my degree, and subsequently, masters in Music (although I still can't reach a tenth). Thanks for sharing your music again. Great sound from the trio :)
The legend is back!
If someone asks you what swing is, show them this video. And not just once. Blessings on you three!
Magical playing Chris!! Love your stride work. It's so smooth and beautiful. Those walking 10ths in the left hand are 🔥Big fan here. - Jonny May, fellow stride/ragtime player.
You're back! Absolutely terrific!
More please! The purest stride|swing piano ever! And nice trio too!
Beautiful!!
Joyous!
I love your style so much!! Your lines are so simple yet beautiful Post more please 🥹🙏
Great playing and singing ❤
3:53 is where the swing part starts for those who are wondering.
Excellently played
That G minor tenth drop at 3:59 is like, the best thing I've heard this year, no contest, that one little detail sealed the deal for me, brilliant!
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Man, when you finally did the swing left hand it was like the world was gone and there was nothing left but just that swing piano ringing in my ears, Chris, you're the best, I hope you'll get some more videos out soon!
Lovely! No missing the trio here-
More like this please sir ❤..i have small so struggle with the tenths in the left hand but will still try and learn this its a beautiful piece
1:02
Wow this is really amazing I love how you jump around so much it gives off good and the short bursts of lots of short notes played together really tops it off
He's a national /global treasure His touch is so elegant, precise and Graceful that his tone becomes liquid gold. I love hundreds of brilliant pianists but I've never heard anyone make the piano sing like Chris Dawson. I could listen to him play scales for hours
Bela execução, amei!!!🤩
You can only do stuff like that if you can only learn and have the life's luck to play like yourself...
Cool video man, great example of REAL stride piano
Chris is the guy
Well, wouldn't it be loverly to play 10ths in my LH
I totally respect that. Bloody good, so it is...
Absolutely wonderful rendition, thank you so much for this performance the excitement and feel in your playing is infectious
Hey great work, do you happen to have the transcription available ?
I loved it Chris. You are really good at this. I'm crazy about this song. I'm trying to make the move from classical to jazz and it has it's challenges. You have to almost relearn the piano as the styles are night and day. Thanks.
Chris Dawson is an Amazing Pianist. I'm his cousin Maryann and I'm so very Proud of him. He's a Wonderful person and is one the Best Jazz Pianist I have the Pleasure to know. 🤩
He's the best swing pianist I know for sure!
Fantastic. What a master in stride piano.
So good 😎✨✨✨🎹♥️

Ive never been more jealous of bigger hands than at this current moment. THE CONSTANT 10THS ON THE LEFT HAND DRIVES ME INSANE WITH HOW EASY YOU MAKE IT SOUND 😭
