Barry Harris at Jazz Congress 2020

[@cdburke08]

What a blow, broke my heart to hear of his passing.... we lose a century worth of knowledge and jazz practice. RIP friend.

[@thingsivelearnedfrombarryh2616]

The Truth. The Master. Thank you for sharing.

[@JoeMackenzieThomas]

What a presence… May your soul live on forever in our hearts. We love you Barry. We love you so much

[@Jodieslay]

This man changed my life, my thinking, my playing.

[@Efuusor]

Among his already numerous awards I believe Dr Barry should be acknowledged as an inventor and should receive a Noble prize. Yes the Barry Harris System with his 6th diminished scale and other nuggets is the most powerful and logical system for harmonic analysis and melodic construction on the planet.

[@a2zpiano]

Barry Harris had helped me understand Jazz better than any books I have ever read on that subject...True living legend..

[@juliebrammer]

No one should have to pay for healthcare or ambulances. Barry you are so Beautifull, I am discovering you and your teachin’ too late man. Im 31, I should have Met you when I was 15. ❤️🎼 Jazz You’re the greatest. Thank you 🙌

[@GestattenWinnetou]

It‘s never to late to discover … 👍🏻

[@jaydendcosta277]

I don't know why this made me so emotional, I'm not an emotional guy and I don't even play jazz piano but this really hit me hard. Thank you Barry.

[@sinethembayantolo]

I play Jazz, he is helping me man and I am emotional to see him like this 💔

[@russell_szabados]

@Jayden D'Costa you're human. Jazz and Dr Barry Harris are human stories we can all imagine when we hear them, even if we can't relate to them through shared experience. They are gifts to all of us.

[@sunnysaxman]

Barry is a true Master. His wisdom and humanity has been a huge influence on me from way back when I didn't even know that I didn't know!

[@christiangarcia9245]

Barry getting the tears coming out of me. God bless this master! I've learned so much from him. #DisciplesOfBarry

[@morejazzplz5746]

It's insane how much Barry Harris has given the world through his influence. Absolutely goated.

[@teflo2]

I remember when the $66,000 was raised for Barry. I cried. To see how so many people showed so much love for Barry moved me tremendously. When I found out about his Zoom classes, I jumped right in. I didn't know how long we would have Barry, but I didn’t want to miss a moment. Being in his home town makes him even more special to me. Long live Barry's legacy and teachings, and may he rest in power forever.

[@jman12849]

Wow he's so lucid and well-spoken at 90. Love that Powell was mentioned here too. I regret that I will probably never meet this man.

[@aggelosk3013]

Crazy that he is 90 he looks much younger

[@clayton229]

I just discovered today that he does workshops and lessons every Saturday on zoom. Not quite meeting him, but probably as close as you can get

[@em.1633]

When I look at most people that are 90, I fear aging. Seeing Barry Harris like this is inspiring, and it makes me want to stay healthy and sharp so I can be like him.

[@GestattenWinnetou]

RIP Mr. Harris. 🙏🏻 And thank you. 💙

[@themidger1]

I think my favorite Barry phrase is “it’s all right here”, he says gesturing at the keys on the piano after he plays something unspeakably beautiful

[@inkognito8400]

What a legend this men is! He is one of the most important figures in today’s culture of music, one of the last apostles of real, honest and true music.A saint of jazz

[@MichaelJayification]

To God be The Glory...we had a talented black man who lived on this planet, an accomplished pianist, who traveled all over and racked up so many accomplishments, who was of truth and transparency, and never acted like a rockstar he taught people, and forced people to learn as much and all of what he knew. Rest. In. Power. 🕊️🕊️🕊️🕊️

[@guidemeChrist]

so rude to cut him off i would've listened to him for another hour or two. prime content

[@jeffmindlin8060]

Barry Harris is an utter force of nature. He encapsulates the beautiful unstoppable force of swing. He’s the heartbeat of all of us who love the music. He’s the greatest evangelist and teacher we have ever had and up there with his heroes as a player.

[@tgatling]

May God continue to richly bless you Dr. Harris.

[@norbertburai2569]

God bless you Forever❤❤❤❤

[@michaelsiao]

this is the person who let me understand the truth of music. thank you!

[@thomashausmann2642]

I lovr this mannnn

[@CharlesAustin]

I’m renewed by this deserving jazz master..

[@absoluterefusal]

Beautiful. Thank you, Barry! You are the only person I can think of worthy of a $66K ride, and doubtlessly much more. All the billionaires in this world can't hold a candle to you. Thank you.

[@Learn_Listen_Love]

Holy crap.. that’s a legend play the 6th on the fifth and the famous diminished scale !!!

[@kailyjamessokame.6028]

Thank you!!!!!!

[@benesposito5493]

RIP✨✨✨

[@judahroused1168]

Barry you are one of our living legends thank you for the gift the most High bestowed on you to teach the school of hard knocks of jazz. 🙏🏿

[@foxybrown2]

Charlie Dizzie and Bud were inonvators true enough, but it didn't stop there and he thinks it did . Jazz has evolved so much.

[@ivanbrown304]

The Master N. 1. Thank You Barry ♥️🙏

[@ARCODEMUSIC]

I love Barry

[@Portia...]

Grande Maestro, grande Umanità. ❣️❤️

[@vova47]

The Last of Mohicans! When he goes, certain way of playing jazz piano will end with him.

[@ecaepevolhturt]

Yes but he's done a lot of work, spreading the word, teaching, documenting and has educated a lot of people about the magic of bebop.

[@morejazzplz5746]

I will never stop annoying my music friends with the good word of Barry Harris.

[@russell2raw]

Barry. Thank You.

[@realfellaz]

The last true bebopper

[@musical_lolu4811]

He looked like an elderly Mos Def here. Rest easy sir!

[@josephwalton487]

Oh I have so many questions for the master sensei Barry. In the Barry Harris YT video called "Confirmation"..towards the end with the tenor, could he go and start with the triplet and carry on with the line back into ending the phrase with another triplet? I'm trying lol😆

[@yohenson]

he's right about the modes in jazz.jazz of his definitions are two fives mostly. they belong to "modal jazz" but i wonder how he'll tackle nardis with that Em going to F, thats a classic mode.

[@dylandecker_music]

True Maestro

[@sinethembayantolo]

Those people who are sitting down while others are doing standing ovation do not know Barry Harris.

[@tabor503]

❤

[@dr.brianjudedelimaphd743]

I wonder what the reason is that Barry likes Keith Jarrett, but wouldn’t let us know

[@GestattenWinnetou]

Is this Kenny Barron at the beginning ?

[@pakiaoo7]

Damn He is!

[@Mr_Gray_Sky]

I was hoping this was part of some larger Jazz government, but it's still good.

[@johnrothfield6126]

Why no MacArthur fellowship for Barry? #macarthurforbarry

[@conqueringlion420]

Rest easy Legend. And hey thanks for teaching a cat ✊🏼

[@muumuu2211]

[@BooseJuice]

Organisers trying to get Barry Harris to finish his speech... the human race is a strange strange thing

[@musical_lolu4811]

I couldn't have been more ashamed man. It felt weird. Welcome to 2020 I guess.

[@aggelosk3013]

What's wrong with Chick Corea? It seems to me that he was the best of his generation.

[@xthatghomiex2939]

What happened that he needed a go fundme?

[@markzhu5966]

Barry had to fly medical air transport from Italy to NYC, he's doing great now

[@HelloooThere]

Yikes!

[@Zxx459]

I don't agree with all his teachings...some of them unclear...based on ego.
