when i first started getting into jazz a great jazz musician told me to learn donna lee. it took me too long to come around, but once i did it gave me a proper appreciation for bird, and basically set me on the path to really being able to play a little.
One of the beautiful things about Charlie Parker is that his music translates very well on the guitar. You clearly demonstrate this. Great job! Very inspiring! I’m going to pick up my guitar…right this minute to start a great day!
Thank you. I was looking for an accessible Donna Lee guitar tab for over a month. Have been humming this song for ever. Can't imagine how Charlie Parker/Miles Davis mind created such a marvel. Thank you!
One of my favorite parts about the guitar is how many ways one can go about learning something. Amazing playing haha!! I've only learned the intro to this tune. It's very inspiring to see the way you play the whole tune! Great job!
Great playing all the way around. Loved it! Interesting hearing 3 different giants solo back to back with different voices coming out of one guitar - you. Very hip.
My first bird solo was blues for Alice and I barely made it through that check out the video on my channel.. I thought that would be the last bird thing I touch being it was hard to learn what I did by ear alone… it was a really good start for me and like a birds whistle, another song by Charlie comes along with sounds that’s make you have to at least try, now I’m trying to do this one in full… I’ve been doing it for the last 4 hours and only made it to 7 seconds. This video is insanely good
Brilliant playing and transcription. One correction: last 2 quavers of bar 44: you're playing the correct notes but the score should read e to f (13 on 4th string moving to 10 on 3rd string). David
@@federicodominici245 That's okay but since you mentioned guitar specifically I expected the part to be written for in correct octave for guitar. It'd be like saying "full transcription for Trumpet" and then not transposing the part to Bb. No worries, though, just means guitarists have to transpose up an octave. 😃😃
@@federicodominici245 Thanks for doing it the way you did; makes much more sense considering the instruments you were transcribing. Plus, anyone who can read will know where the notes are in 8va... it's not like they're different notes, just an octave higher. Thank you for sharing this. And your playing... my goodness!! 😂🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 Bravo!!

Truly remarkable. I can’t imagine how long this took to transcribe, learn and play to that level. Very impressive and enjoyable.
wow great
Wow that is cool... you doing ALL the solos. Thanks man,.... Lessons for years here. Saved
you have some amazing tone man, not only that but you absolutely killed the whole piece.
Uffff que nivel maestro wow
You really have a great tone with just the perfect amount of compression. Great job!
Even the bud Powell part POG
Thank you. I was looking for an accessible Donna Lee guitar tab for over a month. Have been humming this song for ever. Can't imagine how Charlie Parker/Miles Davis mind created such a marvel. Thank you!
Well the bulk of it is chord tones / arpeggios and approach notes

@@federicodominici245 what’s your Instagram?
@@paulwatts27 I don’t have Instagram…
This was the best! But now I see it's the only jazz tune you've done. I'd love to see more! Sonny Stitt?
brutal

Loved the video! What program did you use to make this chart/tab??
I used Finale.
Is there YT video with slower version of "Donna" for us B.B.King fans who dream to play Charlie's masterpiece? Anyone?
Thanks.
Mind blown! Congratulations on a great job and a serious skill... 👏👏👏 How long did the entire piece take you to learn?
I honestly don't remember, I made this video almost two years ago. What I know is that I wouldn't be able to play it like this anymore! 😆
@@federicodominici245yeah, don’t use it and you will definitely lose it with stuff like this lol
Brilliant playing and transcription. One correction: last 2 quavers of bar 44: you're playing the correct notes but the score should read e to f (13 on 4th string moving to 10 on 3rd string). David
What guitar are you playing?
😲
looks like a lot of work
❤😂🎉😢😮😅😊
WOWWWWW! Amazing!! Can i ask you sheet music?
If you'd like you can buy it here:

Bravo! Mi ensegni?
😊😅😮😅🎉😮😂
Ibanez model...
It's an old Ibanez Artstar AF-120
Miles is Miles behind Bird in every solo he follows
👎
it's a good work but sax in the backing track is just too loud, guitar can't be heard clearly
Matters not. When you play along you can turn your amp up as loud as you wish.
そこまで上手く弾けるのなら、コピーなんか止めて、自分なりのアドリブを考えれば良いのに。
WOWZA
Why not write it in the correct octave for guitar (8va), i.e. the way you're actually playing it?
Because I wanted to write it with the actual pitches that are played on the record…
