Having just taken the You'll Hear It pledge, what I want to know is when are we going to get an Adam and Peter duo album?

[@povilasl5383]

that ending was incredible u guys played out of ur mind

[@codreanucornel5412]

you need to make an album out of these piano intro duets

[@kylebecker2550]

Peter’s playing when Adam thickens up the chords was absolutely masterful. That blew my mind

[@justie1220]

I think this video expresses one of, if not the, core tenets of music making; Conversation. Whether its the conversation between two musicians or the conversation between the musicians or the audience, this is the quintessential tenets of why we make music. It's a conversation being had in the moment, and just as in a conversation, if one person is not communicating effectively, it doesn't work. Thank you, gentlemen, for expressing something that I've been trying to understand and wrap my head around since I started seriously playing music.

[@adamtick]

That’s is about the Jazziest headgear this side of Monk!

[@Harry-nk9pd]

please make an episode about Erroll Garner 😃

[@lukeserrano62]

That’s the music of a beautiful friendship. ❤

[@DanielBarberMusic]

This is my favorite video I've ever seen from y'all! So masterful musically and conversationally. Beautiful in all the ways!

[@paulrodberg]

lessons of life, thanks for your teachings.

[@Michelle_Wellbeck]

My favorite duos tommy flanagan and hank jones chick corea and herbie hancock kenny barron and mulgrew miller friedrich gulda and joe zawinul peter and adam

[@flober1970]

Oscar and Basie

[@Michelle_Wellbeck]

Another wonderful duo! @@flober1970

[@GizzyDillespee]

Rankin and Bass

[@CWBella]

Adam and Peter have such complementary styles, both musically and in terms of personality. Makes for great and memorable music.

[@biwc-erie3618]

It’s time to record live. You guys are great I think because you love the music, the instrument, the journey to attempted mastery and each other. All elements are definitely present when you play!

[@yeet4837]

Under Current by Bill Evans and Jim Hall is absolutely the album to listen to after this episode. I swear everytime I listen to it I come back with improved phrasing and interaction

[@PianoDanny]

Nice, especially from Adam - some of the most fluent playing I’ve seen him do. (Peter always is too!)

[@ili626]

Enjoying the intros to these… through the outro.

[@alphaomega6062]

Some magical moments there in real time.

[@jakereosti]

I love the live musical experimentation, love this episode and I love the duo piano. I hope to hear y’all play more tunes in this format.

[@JonathanRouach]

Loved this. I almost feel like I'm in breach of The Ladies & Gentlemen Agreement, getting such good stuff for free. ❤

[@KonagaMedia]

Opening jams need to be your signature guys 👌 the edit intro music leading into convo your getting better … and that red hat 😂😂👍

[@anandaurora]

Fantastic session

[@all12keez]

That was beautiful. Thanks!

[@seancasserley271]

I was expecting more of a French accent. Great lesson

[@akoolstik]

This is a great topic. Thanks for talking about this. 🔥❤️💯🔥

[@giampierogirolamo7134]

Go in tour togethere guys! Come to the continent as well

[@karlderdelinckx]

Super! When you are improvising like this, from which moment are you aware of the keys and scales you’re in? Or are you just thinking chords?

[@yesto9676]

You are aware of all these because they are connected to eachother. But you know you dont have to think about the scales, probably just chords and a little about the key

[@saralynstevens3915]

My favs!!!

[@JL_72]

Amazing ❤

[@jakejakejak]

That's a great philosophy

[@blindteo5808]

Great episode

[@somerandomhomeboy]

Great show guys! Could you please tell me the measurements of your desk especially the length and height?

[@donm3986]

Great introduction!

[@oliver7763]

Just curious, ever play with another musician that just wants to show off so not necessarily complimentary to the music... For example I've heard blues solos that doesn't sound like music just a jumble of very fast and flashy notes... Great lesson in playing tasteful music

[@dskinner6263]

Seriously good stuff 👍

[@kostasjazz]

Ooooh yeah

[@nickrees4706]

Chordal? Quartal? 😊 the promised kiss of springtime that makes the lonely winter seem long ..2..3..

[@davidlerner1009]

Great music. I used to listen to Marian and her guests not only for the duet but for the technical tidbits they shared. Your show is the perfect balance of theory, tricks, information, and great music, especially today. What's the name of the last tune you played? I hear it a lot, but I rarely get the title? Also "You23 Are23" must be sung in 3/4. I forgot it was in 4/4.

[@timmoriz9355]

the tune in the end is stella by starlight i think

[@bensonsteve666]

Here I am literally praying to all of the Jazz Pianist gods that someone will tell Peter and Adam to do a react video to John Benjamin’s “Jazz Daredevil” album. Please please please!!! 🙏

[@GizzyDillespee]

Never seen nor heard of it, but I notice there are some confused looking thumbnailed reaction videos to it, so that's my next port of call😜

[@YoullHearIt]

Can’t do that! 🎹😂

[@adammaness]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/gKaue56dnahlq5Isi=N8x1VJZ3y5jDS8vs&t=3:20

[@daveincalgary1205]

Its recordings of someone who can not play the piano. Not sure what reaction you would expect?

[@Intense011]

what keyboard is Peter using? it looks similar to M-Audio Hammer 88 pro from that angle, anybody know?

[@OpenStudioJazz]

correct!

[@ashrackem]

ridiculoussss from 9:20 till the end

[@nilkilnilkil]

Haha perfect

[@EmmetFettig]

What is the intro music (not the duet but literal intro music on every video)

[@YoullHearIt]

Emotion in Motion by Peter Martin

[@pedroelalto]

Can the pianist unintentionally slow down a group with phrasing during fast tunes?

[@jsjsjsjsjsjs792]

Forgot the name of the song in the intro, can anyone help?

[@jordansasges5144]

All the Things You Are 🙂
