    In a different vein, this was my first contact with Chick Corea and one of his better known compositions, I think I first heard it on vinyl in about 1979. Dig the funky modern technology!

    What a lineup - Stan Getz representing the old guard with Corea, Stanley Clarke and Tony Williams. I know, it's mostly saxophone, but we need a bit of balance....

    I was only joking

      @Doctor-Phibes , that's great!
      Love that Stan Getz Quartet video.
      Every artist performed great individually and the entire band performed great as an ensemble.
      The music itself, as a composition, is a masterpiece.
      I suspect this will be the rare few pieces that I can listen to many times and still be awed and entertained every time for a long time.

          was? 🤣

          Pass that doobie!

          Seriously though, I have that album on vinyl and it is still spectacular after all these years.

                    I checked my Chick Corea transcription book and the prelude is not there.
                    So... just screenshot each youtube page of notes to print.

                      Consider contacting the YouTuber and see if s/he is willing to share a copy with you.

                        @jon-nyc

                        That’s the Scriabin Prelude I was referring to in my earlier post.

                        It has a particular attraction to me as a music miniature, not least because it evokes very pleasant personal memories of a sunny autumn afternoon walking along the Garden Ring park surrounding downtown Moscow amid the mature oak, maple and linden trees.

                        Elbows up!

                              He looks 20 but nobody was videotaping themselves practicing piano in 1961.
