Joshua Redman & The Bad Plus - Silence is the cuestion - Vitoria Jazz Festival 2012

[@JonathanRowden]

I wonder if these guys know that some of us have been listening this fucking song for like 10 years and cry and get chills every time still. This song is goddamn medieval.

[@Nefarious_Bread]

Between this, Prehensile Dream, and Dirty Blonde. I can never decide which is my favorite.

[@Asklpncdnza]

this has become a ritual to me. i come here to remind myself why i chose to live the way i do. happy new year everyone

[@guillermomrltz]

It happened to me the same with people like you, other song of the band!!

[@dalichabii]

Happy new year brother, you found the right words to describe the feelings that comes with the song

[@abrahamtellezv]

I cry almost every time i listen to this

[@lewism9999]

Yo también !!!!!!

[@underthewater_]

Yes, yes, yes. Oh yea, YES. I love the build up. And the discordant piano. The saxophone pulling the melody along. And the bass building lines of passion and fervor. The few moments where all the instruments meet and synchronize, and for that brief moment you see the clarity of the movement and the direction it's going. It rises and swells, and build. Tempo and volume congruous until the end, where it explodes with it's original intent. LOVE IT.

[@edmondutleyjr.4504]

What a courageous performance this is. I adored this band from the beginning to end. I was at their first public live performance as TBP in the basement Rathskeller like bar of the original Knitting Factory downtown NYC. I had no idea who they were or what I was in for. It was revelatory. At first I didn’t understand what the hell was going on. But after a few songs I caught on and loved it. I saw them probably eighty times over the years. What a beautiful musical arc they had.

[@erringman]

Amazing story thank you. I saw them first at the Edinburgh festival in about 2002. It sounded to me then like the future of music.

[@technophobiakills4371]

I swear that since discovering this, I listen to this 10+ times a month. Easily.

[@DexterTheater]

This is one of my favourite love songs ever. It doesn't have words, a single train of thought, a one way meaning, or need for an explanation. It has a certain melody flow, a certain chaos, a great deal of improvisation, disidentification, confusing moments, pattern breakings, and an evolving enchanting implotion at the end.

[@Rapbat-cp1ld]

i had Joshua Redman as a teacher....cool guy

[@acubina]

Didn't know I could hold my breath for five minutes +. These are the giants of our times. Beautiful.

[@christopherbyrd1499]

This is my favorite song ever! Reid's slow solo to start this song is awesome, then the song begins to speed up and then they are just rocking it at the end!! Dave you are the best drummer I have ever heard, truly a legend. Ethan an amazing song writer and pianist. Joshua's soulful saxophone playing through this just brings tears to my eyes. Love you guys

[@edierush1122]

agree with everything, only this song was written by Reid!

[@patrice.records]

only video in youtube with no dislikes there is still hope in the planet

It's much different than the original version of the song with just the three of them, but this one... I like it. A lot. I love it. Not more or less. It's... it's just so different. Like a different piece altogether.

[@CallOfDutyForPC]

Goosebumps every time...

a modern classic...

[@JipJ]

Also listen to the performance of this song at the North Sea Jazz festival (also on KZbin). Still not sure which i like most. Maybe Joshua played with more emotion there. What do you think?

[@passwordsecuritymete]

So innovative!

Does this remind anyone else of a jazzier Explosions in the Sky kind of sound?

[@LaurenceP1959]

Completely fab. Did anyone else laugh at around 10.22?

[@markdomanico7936]

When I laugh you know the music just got real! I laughed

[@sirarthurfrentzel7586]

a bit of a stretch, but I think I can hear where your coming from.

[@williamgabriel2286]

[@squarevinyl]

The name of this song should be called "Pinball machine" we all win.

[@curiousgeorge971]

The Bad + Joshua Redman?

[@quickmcglick]

Load = blown. Too quickly; still good.

[@latneyb]

I know that they love Ornette Coleman. I know Tomorrow Is the Question. I don't know how this relates other than the name.

[@harrymears1623]

Tomorrow is a concept and slicence is an experience

Vin Diesel on the sax

[@robertsadler1766]

How do you spell "Question?"

[@kylebija]

This saxophone solo is painful.
