I have gone to see John Bayless before at the Newport Music Fest and was
utterly blown away by his playing. Here's a man who can take suggestions
from the audience, like "play a Bach Fugue but play it dixieland" and can
pull it off. The performance I went to see, he ended with playing Amazing
Grace in his right hand and Jesu Joy of Man's Desire at the same time in
his left! Enjoy this video all about how Bach improvised (a fact I did not
know until this year when I had to do research for one of my music classes).
