Bill Evans - Beautiful Love (Jazz Piano Workshop Berlin 1965)

[@brysonhill7271]

You see those faces he makes? Those are the faces of those who know they have the time into the craft or skill that they have put their long hours into. Those of you who know what i'm talking about. Pure focus, pure mindset.

[@rayabrams8894]

No notes, doesn’t look at 🎹. He really feels that! That’s real soul 💯

[@jojobeanz2981]

This was magical. From beginning to end. Listened about ten times before I wrote this comment.

Didn’t you realise immediately?

[@barrymarks1321]

Goose bumps every time I hear this, and that's a lot of goose bumps! Bill is always so emotionally part of his playing.

When he stopped playing it looked like he woke up out of a dream. Love Bill Evans

[@cicholasnage]

Its a flow state of creativity. Many musicians experience this, and thats one of the most beautiful thing about being an artist. That flow state, its transcendental.

[@CryssAJones]

Yes. He was transported.

[@caponsacchi]

Haven't seen this video. Bill is, along with Trane, the most influential musician of the past half century. Every note, every voicing has a purpose. The left hand is as prominent as the right. The man was built to play a piano, powerful shoulders and thick fingers. He died still topping himself, inventing an "anticipatory rhythm" that has never been copied. (it nearly gave Konitz a heart attack.)

[@luissalazarweil9775]

I agree, but Charlie Parker should definitely be on that list as well

[@SELMER1947]

That's just your point of view and nothing else. Bird, Dizzy, Miles, Monk, Coltrane and Wes were the most influential musicians of the past half century...

@@SELMER1947 There is hardly any jazz pianist(and some classical and Brazilian as well) who isn't affected by Bill Evans whether they choose to imitate him or ignore him.

[@benedictpuglisi8369]

The bass solo is brilliant too! Niels-Henning Ørsted changed his style quite a lot over the years. I haven’t seen him play like this. Phenomenal.

[@zensadhana]

Great and unique, Bill, unforgettable!

[@1122redbird]

Funny comment, but true. You might be surprised to know this bank manager looking musical genius was a hard core junkie til his death (like many jazz men of the day). I just read "The Big Love" which was basically a diary written by Evans' young lover up to the time of his death. The man was no doubt a genius.

[@clarabroderick2135]

I wish it were not true. I had the immense pleasure of being next to him while he played. The sweetest person. I wanted to think he was pure and without crutch of drugs. His passion was strong. He was tender and shy. The most pure individualist. Another genius who gave all he felt.

[@itsmegianna]

He was pure which might be why the drugs. How blessed you were able to sit beside him while he played 💜

[@enotesmusic]

Phenomenal music skills right here.

Bill Evans, Niels Orsted Pedersen , Alan Dawson !!! Beautiful Love !!! Thanks!!

[@spadge1able]

transparent & flowingly catchy great stuff.

[@jeanlucchapelon]

Extraordinaire : la facilité de jeu , le swing,l'inventivité et derrière tout cela la technique comme moyen.......

[@caponsacchi]

What a sea change for Nils-Orsted (from Oscar) and for Dawson (from Brubeck). Bill plays with a more minimalist yet rhythmically "more forward" pulse, phrasing melodies "ahead" of the chords. Bass and drums must either hold while he lunges forward or, as with his last trio, follow him all the way. Not easy.

thats because pop music has trained people to listen with their eyes....unfortunately. But luckily we have Jazz and other Roots musics.

my (almost) most favorite part: the move of his left hand to start the "jam" ~ ;o)

Perdersen is the one and only!

[@sushiromifune7096]

2:49〜 I find this drummer some kind of "workerism". For example, if he cooks and cuts steaks, fries pasta in a frying-pan, operates heavy equipment at the construction site, or handles fish in sushi-bar, he does them in the same way and wouldn't make any difference. Do you understand what I mean?

[@maryhyland2811]

[@adj7388]

Wow. Great.

[@chrisSkordPiano]

[@camsteele586]

Alan Dawson's playing is unreal here. Its a shame that most young jazz drummers only know names like Buddy Rich and Gene Krupa. Although those guys were gods I think Alan Dawson is way better.

[@rojopojo4493]
