[@ethanburton9180]

This concert has convinced me that Patrick Bartley may be the best living Alto player today

[@mitchellhintzsche6910]

Yea I’m on that train of thought too

[@lucasterrito9270]

Same thoughts, with Soweto Kinch

[@koju3891]

nah eric marienthal imo

[@s3fruit969]

masato honda tho

[@MrBasilDuke]

Don't forget Kenny Garrett

[@zig019]

Pat saying "whoa THAT fast" at the beginning 😂

[@oscargill423]

A feeling every jazz musician has had at some point

[@edwardmoncadajr]

This Bruce Harris-Patrick Bartley duo reminds me very much of the Woody Shaw-Kenny Garrett duo. I hope there is much, much more of this to come.

[@TheBoogie1127]

Word!

[@billstrohler]

Just discovering them today. Is there an album live or otherwise they both play on?

[@maguffle]

Very different, but very complementary styles!

[@MichaelJPineda]

Emmet Cohen's "I Could Write A Book" quote stands the test of time

from Cedar himself!

Patrick Bartley plays with the kind of urgency and intensity that cannot be taught. Incredible! SOUND ALONE🔥🔥🙏🏽

[@mambojazz1]

Absolutely

[@davidruckle7064]

Big soul

[@qiitxxsmitj3491]

Sounds a little like David Sanborn

[@nickmeador899]

I don’t think there is enough said about how amazing Emmet’s playing is especially on this track. He plays one of the finest piano solo’s ever on this tune. Unreal creativity, musical elegance and touch. Russell is also amazing. Insane and the rapport between the rhythm section is crazy. But on this track Emmet really outshines. Hats off 👏

[@nateyboi4813]

agreed, he plays so great on this one!

[@christophegaudissart6551]

yes yes jazz is really my religion now when i hear that i m so sorry of all peaple who cant understand that with their ears....it s so wonderfull

The solo is completely mesmerizing and delivers in a way that hits you. Just incredible. I’m typically not the biggest fan of Bruce’s style but, wow, his solo just makes you float in this one.

6:02 Man this bass player kills me every time, always tight man I love his whole vibe just smiling the whole way. Love it

[@jazzy_tracks]

10:50 is the moment everyone dreams of happening to them during a jam session.

[@devindoherty184]

my two cents: russell dropping his low E to D at 9:35 is so killing

Wow!! Just noticed that. Incredible

[@Hazzarius]

same at 10:13 man it always catches my ear when I listen to this

This is so burning, I can't believe that Emmet's place still stands... :)

Wish my grandpa could've heard this. He got my entire family, 2 generations deep, into jazz. Forever grateful of that, and i'm grateful that y'all are putting out such incredible stuff. RIP.

Greatness No other words to describe how much this performance communicated to me about myself, my playing, life, fellowship, and love for my craft

This alto player is unbelievable !

When I saw Patrick take that huge breath at 10:42 I knew he was about to explode. God DAMN this track was burning.

Russell Hall

[@alamii_mi6623]

Patrick is my favorite jazz musician of all time man. Everything he does is so melodic and unique and he just has this way of occasionaly crossing the line in phrases from jazz music ust pure music. I don't know how to describe it, but sometimes he creates phrases that are somewhat simple musically, but fit so perfectly into the context of his solo and the players around him. Idk how to describe it, but it makes sense to me at least. His solos really transcend like in this performance and gain a deeper level of soulfully rich content that really reminds me how much I love jazz. I really take inspiration from people like him, and hope that one day I'm the distant future, I can possibly be a great jazz musician and can do something that is enriching and that I love to do. Thanks for this performance!

[@colinburgess7728]

totally agree

[@snoopy_next_door]

After watching this over twentieth time, I came to realize that this is my favorite live from Emmet's place video.

[@russellrivero6356]

Every solo is perfection

[@pyro_0074]

There are so many problems in this world, but when i hear this music, i'm feeling like i'm not here anymore. All my sadness an pain is flying away

[@romanwyatt9994]

Jazz is the healing force of the universe

[@russellrivero6356]

I have this rendition of the chart downloaded in my car and every time it just starts playing all the problems just instantly go away. It’s incredible.

[@dashgarnett8117]

I just realized that Emmet quoted "I could write a book"... THAT IS LEGENDARY!!!

[@zakbarbezat]

One of my favorite tunes. Cedar Walton was a bad man

[@zoodsquad6036]

10:46 the fact the drums lined up with the alto hits made it like 10x as cool, so good

[@DeepCrossing1]

Bartley’s solo is out there, it’s in there, he’s the full package

[@GlendonGross]

Bruce Harris' lyricism is commendable on this track, as well as his expert use of space! (and phrasing, which produces call and response with the rhythm section.)

[@russellrivero6356]

His solo is incredibly underrated in this rendition of the chart

[@bbkll224]

Emmets piano solo here is probably one of the best I’ve ever heard from him. Absolutely phenomenal. And Patrick Bartley - holy smokes he can absolutely wail - unbelievable! I can’t stop listening to this track!

[@sriramramamurthy4006]

Wow... no words. Monster solos and playing from all. I especially enjoyed the melodic, lyrical trumpet playing.

[@alonsotorres5001]

Killin tune and killin players! Man Patrick Bartley ain’t come to play! That man had something to say and he was GONNA say it

[@camleee]

I love the exchange of looks at 5:07 between Russell and the drummer once he realised he was on his own

[@bbkll224]

Also - the lead in to go back to the head at 12:04 is PERFECTION!!!! It’s like you’ve got this tune on fire and it’s being gently put out but is still putting out light. It’s absolutely divine as the listener.

[@russellrivero6356]

Beautiful way to put it, jazz just makes you feel a certain way

[@William_35]

You can also see it in Invitation from the randy brecker episode

[@fortnitegod6987]

That rhythm section of emmet, joe and Russell has to be one of the best in the game. Some of the best ears for all of them. Trying to match repetitive rhythms in their solos you can tell all of them were listening so so well

[@mangogyfufi6453]

That William tell reference was killin

Emmet and Patrick yet again prove that they are legendary players of this generation! Also was that a William Tell Overture quote at 3:04? Pure genius!

[@danielporter5514]

Man, what a great piano solo. So many different elements- strong melodies, quotes, aggressive chordal motion, great vocabulary, and SWANGIN LIKE A GAWD DAMN MUFKA. Truly great work emmet. Thank you!

PS Emmet, your solo was one of the most joyous ones I have ever heard.

[@mothma]

Most impressed with the Emmet Cohen and Bruce Harris' solos. And the accent on the drums to to end the piano solo. So simple and beautiful. Joe Saylor is one of the best jazz drummers today!

[@joetumolo7550]

Boys and girls this is what is called music and those are what we call musicians. Talented as hell musicians

[@brianmessemer2973]

Folks, we've found it. The absolutely smoking hot jazz ensemble of our modern time. And so young to be at this level, them being cats around age 30 I'm guessing. I hope they continue this collaboration well into the future. Jazz just got a lot more exciting 😱😱😱🔥🔥🔥

[@KnzoVortex]

Honestly my mind is thoroughly blown, I don't know what's wrong with me, but I have not heard such groovin, musical, high octane but captivating soloing in a good while. Every note in phrase from Emmet just progressed and continued the momentum and narrative forward, so integral and connected yet so vivid, distinct and alive, and Patrick just burning through those out keys and in keys with so much force. Something about this was different than what I'm used to. Every phrase from these guys seems so deeply intentional, not a moment of predictable playing yet still so narratologically potent (by that I mean it all feels so apparently purposeful, it resonates, just feels _right,_ ) just real real mastery over their sound. When musicians attain that kind of control over their tools, there's some other dimension that comes out of the music, just grabs you and enthralls you in a way you just can only get from someone who truly has control over that. It's a phenomenon I don't usually have the blessings to come across often, It's something I usually only find in the real super greats of Jazz, Miles' Four and More, John Coltrane in his modal prime, Bill Evans (...basically everything he did really). Not to be controversial, but to me this is something I struggle to find in most of hard bop and jazz in general, most musicians just don't have that same level of depth and masterfulness and it comes across, but when someone does, it's really powerful. So thanks for being so good, in short.

[@William_35]

I'm telling you, every solo from Emmet has this aura you're describing that I've rarely been able to find elsewhere, and I often see it in Patrick Bartley's playing as well. To hear them play together is really a treat.

[@teelurizzo8542]

I first discovered this tune as the opening track to the outstanding Eastern Rebellion 2 (1977), w/ its alternate title 'Fantasy in D'. 0:18-20 = exactly, quoting 'Firm Roots', closing track from eh same album.

[@cynthiaobryant6001]

was just listening to the original in remembrance of the Maestro Wayne Shorter and then your rendition of his composition popped up and I believe he would have been so proud of each of you fine musicians and the amazing artistry with which you expressed your emotions through this tune!
