Ari Hoenig QUINTET Live at Smalls Jazz Club - Billie's Bounce

[@allegro_manontroppo]

This recording will remain in the history of jazz. it must be said that everything Ari uploads to his channel is of a mind-blowing quality. I often go back to listen to this pearl and it's always the same emotion, thank you very much.

[@AriHoenig]

Hi Everyone. Thanks for listening! I’m doing a video explaining all the things that I played in this version. It’s called Billy’s Bounce explained and will be available in April exclusively on my Patreon.

[@oejdhd]

Ari.. can you ask the other guys in the band to do a similar explanation too? haha... I start the recording halfway through, it doesn't sound like a blues, and it's amazing! Would love to understand the approach better.

[@AriHoenig]

@@oejdhd did you watch my explanation video already?

[@oejdhd]

@AriHoenig Sorry I assumed it would be a percussion/rhythm focused video instead of harmony, based on the above comment saying "things that I played in this version." I will go back to April in Patreon. Thanks to you 🙏

[@pavelstumpf4783]

he is such an unorthodox drummer, so much fun listening to him...

[@jazztemple2]

My sentiments, exactly. How wonderfully strange and different!

[@scarrood]

this!

[@alanduncan1980]

Without the drums, bass, guitar, piano and sax it'd just be nothing.

[@thomasschultze1525]

Music would be nothing without Instruments, you fool! !! It is a free Interpretation of the Theme

[@thomasschultze1525]

Great! !!

[@bozziofan01]

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Lmaoooo

[@Multigameguy35]

So true homie

[@binobones]

Thankfully there was some air in the room that night

[@alichamas63]

I love Ari's playing, he always looks like he's chasing bugs across his kit, and always getting them!

[@Glinggl72Freestyle]

Verity little ego and total commitment to the music. A master at work.... So good And also not afraid to venture off the beaten path of the jazz standard .... Great

[@jacobwright4653]

1:53 lift off! The melody being played on drums gave me goosebumps!

[@elvircrn]

Never heard anything like this in my life.

[@magohipnosis]

After 5 years of jazz drumming and records this performance is still over my head in terms of form, polyrhythm and overall musical mind reading

[@TTFMjock]

You will be very lucky/accomplished if this isn't over your head in 15 more years.

[@jonasmartinsen3439]

Both of you would understand if you just practice and learn about the music.

[@DILLiF]

@@jonasmartinsen3439 so explain what’s happening for the people that don’t understand. Instead of bringing someone else down.

[@werkzeugmann6224]

Even if its the first time you hear Ari's band(s) play, you'll never forget it, and always remember who he is... fascinating rhythm!

4:54 just gold:D

[@aidanschram9652]

These guys are all rhythm wizards just fooling around and acting like kids while making it sound awesome and great at the same time! I think that's what playing music is all about once you're at this level of musicianship

[@clayjohnson2618]

The boys are back in town!!

[@ChrisCardenDrums]

absolutely my favorite jazz drummer, so much fun to watch. the way he approaches the drum kit as being a tonal instrument by using his arms to manipulate the heads. Unbelievable stuff. Great video.

[@takahirosakamoto4607]

When I want to watch this video, you just uploaded 6/27 in Japan time. Thank you so much! I am jazz drummer and pianist in Japan. I love your music feeling.

[@YamadaNikko]

Ari, you’re the man. You fill me with so much adoration and energy. I hope to someday be 1/16th of the drummer you are.

[@RafaelAndrade-uv8zs]

This session blew my mind, it's truly fascinating! You are a inspiration for a new generation of musicians.

Ari & group. Just WOW. Thank you all. Hey Ari- please do tell… you and Keith Carlock have same teacher, influential catalyst and or hang out together? You sir are an amazing drummer. Thx again. d

[@egyptianminor]

@@ViziaFilms I stand corrected! That's right! Sonny Rollins. I actually hear other motifs/quotes like @ 7:16 - 7:35/36 for example, but the name escapes me right now.

[@jackhuang920]

Thank god I get a chance to listen to this before I die

[@Scooped_Orange]

those drums are tuned so well (as well as a great shell); they match the melody in the key of this rendition of the tune, but they also sound so amazingly warm even with sticks instead of mallets. the attack is not too harsh

[@crt-dggr]

yes

[@timmcgrath3416]

Awesome, looking forward to seeing them in Dublin in November. 👍

[@DavidMScott-cs8pp]

I'm 83 a drummer and still do Jazz gigs. These polytyhems are basically what Jazz drummers have been doing for decades. This is especially true in BeBop which being most popular in late 40s through to early 60s required the drummer to solo musically often mimmicing the instruments. Listen to Stanley Turentine's Sugar here in KZbin and you'll hear the opening bars where the drums follow the keys. Philly Joe Jones played musical breaks all the time. And many polyrhythms are based on African or Latin rhythms. I learned them from day one in the 50s and still use them in our Jazz trio as I have Bongos incorporated directly into my kit. One method I use is to switch up the patterns during the number but still staying in time. I find that most drummers who grew up playing Rock have no knowlege of even basic Latin beats. Also many have never played Jazz so when they try they still lay down a Rock pattern with steady back beat in snare in 2-4. Listen to the snare in this and you'll see that the left hand varies greatly with buzz rolls, triplets etc. And as for the word polyrhythm ... mmm... we just played them as that word was foreign.

[@stefaniadelosrios2329]

El tipo es distinto a todo lo que se haya visto. Y tiene una independización de las extremidades fuera del alcance de cualquier mortal. Ari, de ahora en más eres uno de mis favoritos.

[@Scooped_Orange]

this is just amazing
