Autumn Leaves

Here's a rendition I've done based on Curt Sheller's version/PDF from his site. With a bit more practice the pace might pick up just a tad.

Lichty Tenor, Linear D Tuning, Southcoast strings.

All critique and comments always appreciated. Thanks!

Practice this way, you will play better.

Yes, the swing is the thing. Thanks very much MG!!

You are welcome. I use the method learned from my Jazz teacher. All Jazz teachers teach the method only 2 and 4:

PS. He's not my teacher. I just found the videos on youtube.

I also played "Autumn leaves". Autumn is coming up, but it is still hot in Japan.
