I saw him play solo in Santa Fe NM a couple of months ago. He went on a 15 minute exploration of Beethoven’s Moonlight Sonata. It was one of the greatest musical experiences I have ever had in my life. I have NEVER heard the piano played the way he plays. His passion, joy and love fill the room.

So much joy in this interview. I needed that ❤

[@pdoylemi]

One of the few great things about Covid was the way Jon was introduced to us during the Late Show as so much more than just a sidekick or late night band leader.

[@talesofcsoplahia]

He is a singer's dream! Imagine having Jon Batiste playing for you with the joy that he brings. Wow!

[@violoentvictor]

If I was a gaming company and saw this, I’d ask Jon Batiste to orchestrate my next game. It would be next level epic. It would be a labor of love for him considering he’s a gamer.

[@TheDevnul]

Jon reminds me there are truly beautiful people in the world.

[@cheryldian]

[@sassyx2048]

This Guy is really special i get it now took me a while but i get him. Music to him is a spiritual Soulful connection that you feel in your heart and Soul. He totally embodies the music he creates thats why his energy is unmatched. I liked him even more when i watched American Symphony His love for his wife and bis viz was spell binding captivating and inspiring no wander he creates the music that he does. He spirit his infectcious so natural you could listen to him all day. Kelly's vocal talent is unreal look how she just turned the bar up the melody the the tone the sound imagine what a duet would produce. It just reinforces real musical talent. Thank you Jon and Kelly❤.

Love hearing him talk about his artistic process!

[@viharkottakota1849]

Happy Birthday king!!!

[@davidhurtado2725]

1. "You can't let anyone steal your joy" is an all time advice 2. That he used video game music as his starting ground makes sooo much sense

[@marywelsh5548]

Proof that shared joy is multiplied

[@GiselleProctor20]

One of my favorite things in music! Richie Ray and Bobby Cruz did this as well with the use of Frédéric Chopin's Étude, Op. 10, No. 12 in C Minor in their salsa song Sonido Bestial.

[@EureillePoole]

what a awesome guy WOW!!

[@kentbrooks3227]

Kelly couldn't help but join in! I love it!

[@tarynlowery4570]

My heart

[@vincentgaglio5106]

I want one of those to learn to play.

[@WesTheMarketer]

He may be the most talented musician alive. My goodness.

[@NellieKAdaba]

One of the most talented, yes. He inspire me as an aspiring amateur musician.

[@deemichelle]

Saw Mr. Batiste recently at City Center honoring Judith Jamison; he's not only super talented but humble. A beautifully spiritual and wise man.

[@Hello.people.575]

He would make a great Preacher . He is very wise and likeable.

[@DancingOnGlass89]

I'm not a church goer, but I'd go to one if he was. (Our churches are a snooze around here)

[@debrahudson6324]

Oh no! We got a barrel full of those. Music is the healing balm for what ails our world. We need his musical genius to give us respite from the contentious and divisiveness of religion. He is divine as God made him. God did some of his best work on this one. Some families seem uniquely blessed.

[@KWicksable]

FABULOSO✨✨✨✨✨

[@SolCareMimi]

[@worldcitizen9202]

Lol. Funny how people are so impressed on changing the most basic of Beethoven piano piece into a little tiny improv (hardly) .... How about check out what this guy did to a Bach composition (not the famous Bach) kzbin.info/www/bejne/gJqohX-CqL2tfKs Don't get me wrong I love love love Jon Batiste

[@AlfredKhohliso]

[@viharkottakota1849]
