Food Court Musical

From http://www.ImprovEverywhere.com, 16 agents create a spontaneous musical in a food court in a Los Angeles mall. Using wireless microphones and the mall's PA system, both their voices and the music was amplified throughout the food court. All cameras were hidden behind two-way mirrors and other concealed structures.

rannndom improv jams - some hip hop & some funk/techno

My CD: http://www.ronaldjenkees.com/music-store
These are really two songs in 1 but they evolved in the same FL Studio project (2 different days). That's how it goes sometimes - might have to make it into two different beats since they're so different.
They keyboard I'm using here is the Yamaha Motif XS8, which is the weighted-key version of the XS series (I'm finding I'm not a fan of weighted keys for most stuff besides piano). More on that in another video where I'll play some stuff I'm sequencing purely on the board (very different and confusing to me).
Thanks for watching/commenting/subscribing, folks!

Improv - Electric Guitar (keyboard) Canon in D - On my CD!

Buy this song: http://www.ronaldjenkees.com/music-store/
The version you can buy from me is close to what I play here. I DID keep a lot of the guitar. So I have a bunch of that in there with cool piano part in the middle where it calms down, then speeds back up into more guitar. Anywho, I hope you like it!
Thanks for the awesome comments.
This was inspired by watching this dude, as you all have probably seen already:

Improv on a new beat! Had too much fun on this one. X2

my music store: http://ronaldjenkees.com/cd-store/
**This song will hopefully be on my next CD, late summer of 2008.
Thanks for watching and commenting, folks!! Also, thanks to those who check out my CD!
The sound I'm using on the Korg Triton LE is called Velo Pulse Clav, patch A-087. It's got a good delay on it which is half of what makes this a fun instrument to play.

Cziffra's crazy improv with Chopin Etude

This is a must see video of cziffra! He does a bunch of improv and basically shows off his skill while warming up. Note: This is amazingly not a performance but a filmed test of the piano. Thanks to busoniliszt, This is the breakdown of some pieces that he visits: 1) 1:27 Liszt - Scherzo & Marsch
2) 3:39 Chopin - Etude op. 10 nr. 1
3) 5:10 Chopin/Liszt - Chant Polonais (Madchens Wunsch)
Also there is a bit of Shostakovitch Op. 87 No. 7 discovered by nikkistride.
He absolutely rips chopin's etude op.10 no.1. from the keys. The rest, is the ability of a professional mind.
Enjoy!
