That sounds fantastic. I wonder what style he's playing or if it's a MIDI.

What's a "MIDI"? confused1
Judging by watching him play this it's probably just simply recorded a "Funk style" (there are some really good ones on the S950) progression on the KB as a backing track which allows him to play along with it. Many times it's better that way vs live style play mode allowing the performer more freedom.

He is playing the keyboard in normal arranger style. It's not a midi file . it's a style that is on the keyboard. He's playing the left-hand chords and soloing with his right hand and using the pitch bend wheel between chords. Peter is truly a professional and I would pay to see and hear him play any time. He has the rare mix of being able to play classical straight up pieces to jazz funk to blues to literally any style professionally and at a high level Without sounding contrived or cheesy.

Look at around :55 chords are changing and he's is just playing lead guitar & at 1:03 the Brass comes in...variation or SMF?....I don't see him change LH chords?

I thought he triggered one of the endings when the brass came in and then he hit a fill to get out of it.

You can't see the chord change at :55 Dnj ? Watch again just before . He is definitely playing in straight arranger style. No midi no mp3 no sequence

If it didn't matter, why bring it up?

I wanted to know because I play the same keyboard, and I wanted to play with that style. There is an Audio Drum funk style that sounds similar - but not quite.

Peter's playing is amazing regardless of whether it's prerecorded track or a style file.
