Jon Batiste Teaches The Blues

[@charlesramos9563]

He doesn’t only teach us the blues, he also wants us to feel the blues

[@Rachel-sv9pq]

Saying someone is a national treasure is casually thrown around a lot but Jon Batiste is legit a national treasure

[@denaro572]

I've never seen a person having more fun then him while making music. He is such a gem!

[@jimbeen6796]

The only person that looked to be having as much fun IMO was Eddie Van Halen.

[@EliasGitterman]

MORE JON BATISTE PLEASE!!!

[@mattosso7676]

I second this! I'm an atheist, but hearing Jon Batiste play piano makes me want to shout AMEN!

[@johngleeson7919]

His passion for music is infectious

[@robsonclark9678]

Lisa has that too, but ya Jon is a spiecal person :).

[@johngleeson7919]

@robsonclark9678 💯

[@gszuhai]

One of the most talented, but definitely the most laid back guy in music industry! Very entertaining, always!

[@drpacman9996]

He had me at heyyyyy yeahhhhh. When I saw he’s got an album called Beethoven blues at the end…… I’m all in!

[@antonioogando4705]

A monster this guy !!! Spetacular!!! Simple, friendly, it shows the art of the piano in an easy and enjoyable way to see!

[@janemarbach2549]

I saw him at the Paramount Theatre in Denver as he walked down the aisle I actually got to touch his pink silk suit....still havent washed my hand! Touching greatness!!!!

[@ricoeurkhino]

“You gotta go there to know there” 🔥🔥

[@nerds4knowledge]

His joy makes this lesson so engaging!

[@josephbrian455]

Hopefully a "Jon Batiste Teaches Gospel" video to follow.

[@TKay-q1u]

Gospel usually is blues based, right?

[@Alice-fr1ef]

Thank you so very much Jon Batiste. It's a blessing to have you share your knowledge of the Blues with us. We are so very thankful to have this chance with you teaching us.

[@EliasGitterman]

His energy is contagious!

[@elim481]

Everyone would be good at music if Jon Batiste was their teacher

[@ultramet]

NOLA in the house !!! #1 music city in the USA! ❤

[@glossaria2]

You feel that *in your soul.*

[@ParadNorthProd]

This guy IS music.

[@jamminb8589]

Your energy is inspirational, your understanding is almost unfathomable, thank you for taking the time to translate this for us mere mortals.

[@suomi35]

Jon calms my soul.

[@ItsMe-fs4df]

That train thing? 🤯 So clever, and such a great explanation. I get the feeling he speaks fluent music and is trying to translate it into English 😁😁

[@JackWc22]

He's such a gem!

[@mariofernando6776]

Can listen to him a whole damn day!!!🤯🤯🤯

[@adriana7633]

I am so astonished..! I wish I had just 1% of his talent

[@tinawalker4180]

Thank Jon Batiste!!🎉🎉🎉 I’m inspired to dust off my piano and to start playing again. 😊❤

[@sbulelontokozomathobela7284]

Hi and how are you ? Please have this man back with a longer version because damn he is teaching somethings else. 😫🔥❤️

[@Howard423Turner]

Momma that boy got his own thang! 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉❤

[@davidbalan6571]

Jon Batiste is known for his role as bandleader and musical director for the Late show with Stephen Colbert from 2015 and 2022, as well for his numerous Grammy Awards nominations and contributions to furthering music education.

[@romerort]

Great explanation, thanks!

[@12barsoul]

That was pretty cool. Thanks, Jon.

[@evarsingersongwriter6228]

The Best🎉

[@sedrabrown1]

This is dope

[@FiveFigsDigital]

Wow!

[@king2871]

I have been waiting on this! This was amazing!

[@dahalofreeek]

"We learned this scale when we were young children." Not all of us are gifted prodigies Jon. I think I learned my first blues scale when I was like 16.

[@jackwilloughby239]

Maybe you could answer this for me since you played Fur Elise? Is the Beethoven 32 Variations in C minor an Eight bar Blues? I appreciate the Batiste Blues Scale. I accidentally found it myself one day just trying to add all the chromatic notes to the Minor Pentatonic. By the way, the Jerry Lee Lewis "Last Man Standing" piano book has some legit piano transcriptions along with the vocals. Not a bad place to start. Cheers, Jack

[@ray_maestro_]

Ray Charles. Yeah! 😊

[@joeldcanfield_spinhead]

He just blows past this like it's nothing: every major tech revolution changes music. When trains changed the world, the blues sounded like a train. Nowadays, music sounds like computers. Astute observation, sir.

[@samuelmiranda-cf6gx]

He feels the music like Ray Charles style....

[@joeyfarrell4399]

Any other audio nerds know what's going on with his voice? Hearing some weird artifacting stuff

[@ocb2112]

I need to visit my therapist after this

[@JaysonSantos]

I thought I sucked at the piano. Now I'm sure.

[@GASNICABRUNATNA]

I'm having Plants vs Zombies flashbacks

[@nexuseclipse]

Waay to much soul in this man. I could watch this a 100 times and still not catch everything he did here.

[@shakeelsunny803]

❤❤l

[@jrobtrader]

Blues is easy to learn, impossible to master

[@worldcitizen9202]

He is making a meme of himself ...

[@DiegoTruth]

What a great pianist ! His shouts are so annoying though, I wish he would stop doing that.

[@maniacalrage]

Na it's just part of him & I love it!

[@Omifeem01]

Same here It keep the flow 😂❤❤​@@maniacalrage

[@ezzobra3537]

You must be such a boring person

[@vspatmx7458]

Shouting hurts my ears.. Not interested..

2# the blue note. 4# to

[@fabichaz7830]
