Gwilym Simcock explains - and plays Good Days at Schloss Elmau


From the Guardian website, here is Gwilym Simcock,talking about and then playing Good Days at Schloss Elmau. He makes it all sound desperately simple.....

-How optimism and joy is at the heart of what he does
-How he imitates a whole rhythm section
-How the tune is interjected into the groove
-How the key relationships work
-How other sounds from the piano get used
-And having explained the piece, he then plays it. As easy as that really...
