<font size="3"><span style="font-family: Geneva,Arial,Sans-serif;">First of all, I hope everyone had a great Christmas or however it's pronounced in Hawaii. I heard this on a Bing Crosby Christmas songs on a movie of all places, not one of his, but another. <br><br>Thanks as well to the replies about tuning on Christmas. I'm always curious how everyone is doing in their businesses and what they've encountered. <br><br>Now about piano playing. I've been playing for years, but not the jazz style. I'm not sure what I play, a combination of blues jazz maybe, but I need to learn and fine tune my jazz playing to enable me the ability to play in restaurant settings etc. So how does one play a melody on the left hand? I read this on a jazz players website, Scott is his first name. I know bass is played on the left hand, but how does one play melody? I play by ear as well. <br><br>Have a great day everyone. <br>Marshall<br></span></font><span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="font-weight: bold;"> </span></span><span style="font-weight: bold;"><font size="3"><span style="font-family: Garamond,Times,Serif;"><span style="font-style: italic;"><br></span></span></font></span><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><span style="font-weight: bold;"><font size="3"><span style="font-family: Garamond,Times,Serif;"></span></font></span></span><br /><hr />Get the power of Windows + Web with the new Windows Live. <a href='http://www.windowslive.com?ocid=TXT_TAGHM_Wave2_powerofwindows_122007' target='_new'>Get it now!</a></body>
