Donna Lee - Kinga Głyk Trio

[@rufffamily9439]

I thought she was “ just” one of the best groove bass players I’ve ever heard....but HEAVY jazz chops? Good lord. Easily one of the most gifted musicians I’ve ever heard. Mercy...

[@ahmedrazan4554]

I don't understand why y'all always use the word gifted, you think they were just born with it? What you don't see is the insane amount of hours they poured into honing their art

[@arnemunk]

The two other guys were quite good too ..

[@a.nobodys.nobody]

​@@ahmedrazan4554 happy to explain it to you. So not all musicians are created equal. If anyone who put in the hours could be a Tatum or Bechet, well we'd have 100s of thousands of them running around. He's referring to the bit that goes beyond the effort - that considerable time has been committed to the craft is obvious to even a small child. But working hard isn't the part that really, deeply impresses us is it? Millions of musicians work hard. For some, there is an inexplicable part that cannot be accounted for that puts a musician at the next level, that rare echelon of the top 1%. And in that sense it is said to be 'given', aka gifted. By God or otherwise. That's not to say someone couldn't arrive via brute force (say, Coltrane who tirelessly practiced the basics as well as constantly addressing his weaknesses), but many of those that 'make it' have what can only be described as a 'gift'. Hope that makes sense.

congratulations, on being the first human to ever play some actual music on a bass uke

Large Harbinger you clearly haven’t seen Davie504

[@Qance]

Can't wait when someone will metion him on every fucking bass video on KZbin.

[@beaconofasicksociety2320]

Fuckwit perfect name for yourself

[@Pizaz0]

Nihilist Church he’s just a pewdiepie rip that plays bass

[@williambarela2791]

Don’t you slappers know that Davie504 owns the bass on KZbin? At least, I conceded to that fact after he played a 24 string bass lol

[@anthonybrakus5280]

Sister Kenga, I am inspired! Those staccatto, arpeggios following the piano (towards the beginning of the piece) are amazing. It happens so fast I can't tell if she is harmonizing with the piano part or following the melody a couple octaves lower. It's like they are one instrument played by one mind, intense. The level of musicianship being displayed is breathtaking. ❤🎉

[@Jin-Hu]

I love the respect that all players give each other the room to play, nice

[@Marv-bg8uy]

4:09-4:24 these chord movements will send you to jazz heaven.. 😭😭

[@gunfighterdrummer]

When that pianist has that thoracic curvature, you know he can play.

[@lazarus6983]

LMFAOOO something hilarious.... About 5 seconds after I read your comment, KZbin glitched out for a second and when my mouse hovered over the time bar, instead of showing a snippet of the video at that particular second, it showed Bill Evans with the same EXACT curve, juxtaposed right next to the pianist in the vid

[@onelovetopher]

Needs to learn how to lay back

[@dewinmoonl]

[@HerroVincey]

Kinga is certainly one of the most expressive bassists I've seen. It is always such a joy to witness a musician who so clearly communicates their own enjoyment to the audience. She reacts as a true listener of her own music. And the rest of the trio is killer as well, this was such an intimate viewing experience!!

[@gtggj6851]

Poskładać coś do tak porywającej całości nie lada sztuka. Gratulacje.

[@mikesorbassguitar]

That's more notes than I've played in 30 years.

[@Vermoot]

That's bebop for ya

[@darthvader8804]

There are only 12 notes in modern music lol

[@icecreamforcrowhurst]

Yup bebop’ll do that to ya

[@tomaszostrowski62]

Jak zawsze ...kapitalnie, tworzycie świetną muzykę. Brawa i pozdrowienia dla całej rodzinyi Głyków. ps.od zawsze moimi ulubionymi instrumentami w muzyce były i są gitara basowa i perkusja - sekcja rytmiczna, a u Was to połączenie jest kapitalne ......czekam niecierpliwie na więcej

[@jasonhuang1447]

I've been struggling to feel the groove of Donna Lee for a long time (confusing the start to be on 1 rather than on 3), and this is the first version that made me feel it. Amazing.

[@TheGeneralZaraza]

Elegancko! To co najważniejsze jest technika, precyzja i czystość ale też jest pasja, zaangażowanie i emocje. Na yt dużo jest zaawansowanej muzy wyłącznie czystej do bólu technicznej. Perełka. I to nasza :)

[@aljoschahunger]

..the level of polish jazz was always crazy.. chapeau for the pianist!..

[@wolfgangfricke8555]

my saying.

[@vicentesalvadorpitrelli2092]

So proud of You, Kiniu. Hope You.have got some concert arrangements in Melbourne, Aussie Land. ❤.

[@randygomez9595]

So glad to see that great jazz music is still alive and well!

[@crismusicart]

Bravissimo! I loved the freshness and ability to interpret this theme. Congratulations!!!

[@lawrencehodge7085]

I have to say, I had no idea that A U bass could sound that good! I am assuming her skills are a large part of it!

[@lettuce7378]

for sure. I have a similar instrument and it's hard sometimes to get a sound out of it that doesn't just sound like a slapping rubber band.

[@mr.force1036]

have no idea how I missed this, but glad I found it. Great trio great song arrangement, thanks...

[@basscliff55]

The bassist in this group is truly badass 👍🏾 and so is the band. Love that she’s getting that upright Sound from such a tiny instrument. And Iv always wanted to play an upright. Thanks for putting this out there Gtyk ... love it..

[@Maharani1991]

She's so good they named the band after her. :) EDIT: Just like Suzi Quatro, another bass player! Lovely coincidence :)

[@mathewpepe3645]

that is the smoothest bass playing.

Love this lady! she’s absolutely amazing 🎶🎵😃🎶🎵🎶

26 years old and she plays like that? Incredible!

Fantastic! The whole band is just in the pocket!!

[@HPHSGermany2010]

Unbelievably cool! Jaco's smiling on the other side.

[@skineyemin4276]

But, Jaco didn't write the tune, though.

[@Violetcas97]

Max Austin I’m sure he’s smiling down same as Charlie Parker would’ve when Jaco covered it. Besides, it’s clear to tell this was a cover of Jaco’s arrangement of Donna Lee moreso than Parker’s.

[@dominikkurowski3145]

or Miles who wrote it.

[@arthurrccampos1357]

at first it was very strange, such a small instrument, then i realized i live in brazil and we use bandolim and cavaquinho lol. Amazing playing, great sounding, cheers from Brazill
