Duke Ellington's piano on "In A Sentimental Mood" (Coltrane version) - Prof G 

"Jazz for little kids and other creatures" that's an album title right there.

Glad to be alive within the Gossaissance.

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?

“But back then....he, didn’t know that yet” 😂 hilarious how he says that. This guy is my hero

SIR DUKE OF MEDIEVAL TIMES

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.

Great video on a legendary recording and piano player! Thank you :)

Keep them coming. If Duke Ellington were still alive, he would most definitely watch your tutorials to improve his playing.

This changed my life the first time I heard it.

These are fantastic. Please tell me you've got some Monk coming up.

0:25 Genius play

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’m so happy your doing all of this prof G

This song has got to be one of the most sublime, breezy arrangements ever recorded. One of my top favorite songs.

just discovered your chanel a 20 minutes ago and was hoping for more of these prof g videos... and here you go and upload this :D thank you!

a classy lecture thank you professor

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’m loving this series

is this gonna be on the exam mr goss

That "Sir Duke" joke right at the beginning had me dying.

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 prof g, ever since hearing that intro I wanted to play it but struggled to figure it out for myself.

Thanks Professor Goss!

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.

Thank you Prof Woodrow Gossling

Woody Goss is an absolute legend

Una maravilla. Muchísimas gracias por acercarnos a esta delicia.

I didn"t no I was missing something from my life when these didn't exist but I definitly was.

*Sees video pop on recommendations* Nice, another jazz channel. *Watches the beginning* Oh, it's one of dem memers. Gooooooooood.

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!

thank you so much for this blessed content

Top 10 Greatest Uses of Sir Duke

One of my faves jazz albums

I assume this is the same piano the Christmas album was recorded on? It sounds fantastic.

Loving the lectures professor goss!! super hyped for all the stuff youre putting out lately

Please do more of this dude, feed me your knowledge put it behind a paywall I don't care I need it

Hey, Professor Goss!

Excellent tutorial prof G! Just listened to this album for the first time today :)

Dude, do more! I have learned so much from this!

Professor, you still haven’t uploaded the lecture slides, could you get them up? Thank you in advance!

Amazing content especially right now thank you Sir Woody

Please keep making these. Love your take on tunes.

I wish non-musicians enjoy this video as much as I did

Been listening a lot to this tune of late so this was perfect

Your piano sounds so pretty 😊

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!

I admit it. I can't play like Woody, but I keep watching the videos for the sweet intro music.

Wow, this is appreciated, thanks for making this.

Beautiful. Loved the subtitle note about duke thinking like an orchestrator. Have you considered an evening lecture on Monk, Art Tatum or Sun Ra?

awesome content

Thanks for this, wonderfully expert and simple

Please keep making tutorials. They are dope!!

Thank you this album is amazing!

I love these voicings.. Just like on Fleurette africaine with Mingus. Thanks Prof G

Insanely good

we're lucky to have you as a teacher brotha. hope to run into you in chicago.

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!

Had to stop getting ready for work to watch this

That's beautiful

Class is in session!!

Thank you Professor, very cool

professor goss, thank god you’re back

This is some wholesome Woody content right here

Quality content

My favorite teacher

Thank you professor Goss.

thank you so much for this professor

Thank you professor!

If I ever go to music school it would be so cool to have professor gross as a professor.

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

apparently the sound engineer asked for a take 2 and duke was like "no"

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

Thanks for this man. I wanted to transcribe this a while ago but I forgot. Now I don't have to :)

Lovely

Professor Goss, could we please do a lecture on Art Tatum and his crazy jazz classical stuff like Humoresque?

Thanks professor!

Thanks! Will you be covering the bridge or Duke’s solo?

Cool, keep them coming! :-)

We played this in jazz band it was a jam

thank you prof Goss!!

Professor Goss, thesis counsellor for Doctor Who... :)

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.

More Ellington videos please

I havent heard it like this before

Thank you woooody you’re great!!’

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?

Holy shit dude that @chopin had me dying

Ur sick. Thanks

immediate subscribe brilliant content and funny

You think you know how to play your instrument, then you watch Woody explain jazz piano and all of the sudden feel like you’re trying to understand another language :(

Thanks. ..

this is good

One of my first jazz albums ever! Thanks Mr Goss, can we have some Monk and maybe some Oscar Peterson?

How many times will I watch this video solely for the intro

think to understand sir duke on this album, one has to consider that he spent some time meditatiing on the monastic disciplines

As Sir Duke's friend Paul Biegler would put it, I now feel an irresistible impulse to play the piano

Can you do a breakdown of Monk's caravan? Thx love u professor
