Oscar Peterson- Bach's Blues

[@mhoracsek]

Many many years ago going home in hot summer afternoons, I often heard Peterson's music from the 4th floor good loud by tape recorder.......it was my father who was listening his music. Thanks him forever introducing me to his brilliant play! And - of course - the man, who uploded it! Marianna

Meu eterno mestre, sem igual . Linhas melódicas com as duas mãos que ele criou, nenhum dos mestres do erodito escreveram em suas obras. Meu grande inspirador.

[@MattMcCarrin]

I'm a huge fan of Bach - Probably one of the biggest there is - but Oscar can hang with Bach all day.

[@frankrault3190]

Is Peterson referring to any of Bach's pieces in particular? I don't hear it.

[@al17co05fa92]

@EyMeng Yes, I think so. In every video I know he plays on a Boesendorfer. I love those instruments!

[@newscrews11]

@Easleytee Someone once said the difference between a clever guy and a genius, is the clever guy is what you could be with shovels of talent and application. The genius comes from another place, you can't replicate what they do

[@ludovico9vonz]

maravilha.

[@helgeaaen9962]

Genius!!!!

[@cs1017]

so good :)

[@sagalat]

Masterful. Still The Gold Standard

[@TakoGoksadze]

Urgently added to favourties!

[@megamoe2000]

No, but the Bach's Blues is included in The Bach Suite, that he wrote for Bach's 300th birthday

[@diamondgirl4everable]

those who marked dislike don't apparently appreciate good music. sorry for them.

[@ArnellCarmichael]

man he could play

[@elaph2755]

From here because of Tae TAEHUNG comment 🌚✨

[@kolossol1]

@thenamesfrancisco because he's Oscar Peterson, he's a badass, and he can call it quite what he likes, lol.

[@muiravenue7182]

WOW

[@alexdesslin]

très sympa !

[@julienmermel369]

Genial! Je prends mes affaires!

[@mariusherrmann5383]

5:22 🤌

[@savedbythemerv]

@jakedam hahaha so true

[@MI24CL3]

@Easleytee He didn't say geniuses, he said musical geniuses and by that he of course meant they were creative and talented in the way they played, because behind the playing lies a lot of theory and expertise in the way to manipulate notes. So yeah, don't be faultfinding.

[@RazvanFilipCipca]

@Easleytee what is in your opinion a genius?

[@Martindupingoei]

@al17co05fa92 I completely agree

[@Marius1988Roma]

Please tell me the name of the Quasimodo on the drums

[@trojanowl]

Martin Drew

[@Pianofy]

Why is it called Bach's Blues? It is based on a Bach theme?

[@lilisimos]

No one knows music like u do

[@Joooo94]

@DuoDejaBlue Peterson himself said he thought electronic instruments were part of the way forward in music. Don't be so closed-minded.

[@S_Muljaja]

Anyone know who's the drummer and what cymbal that is?

[@whippja]

Rex0680 Martin Drew,died a few years back

[@ZionGuySupreme]

Rex0680 looks to be an original 80's Sabian HH 22" Ride, logo on the back.

[@colourfulwithaU]

@Easleytee Uhmm...'brilliant' and 'genius' both denote extraordinary intelligence. In what way is Oscar not a genius pianist?

[@jacquesmonnier1041]

Msgnifique blues mais je ne reconnais pas d influence de bach...

[@yvespenhoat6775]

Il n'y en a pas

[@Andreeeiiii]

kinda the same tune from monty alexander its also great /watch?v=de9aSShl0CM&feature=related

[@9VBGI]

Oh really? Too Canadian is he? Well that's a new one for me. It's a 12 bar blues not a prelude and fugue. (Like it's Jazz - gottit?). I have said this before: Better shut your trap and be regarded as an idiot - than openen it and prove you are one. He 'Plays too stiff'. Sounds like the Pea Nut U. music appreciation program

[@metacosmos]

to play stiff you just take the music from another country and play it according to the written sheet music but without soul.That was the way Oscar peterson played jazz.

[@anthonyhilton6049]

I do indeed. I do indeed. And a few hundred others from The King to beyond Bird; from Monteverdi to Copland; from Joplin to Emmy Lou and Ladysmith Black Mombaza to Dire Straits. Like Duke said: There's 2 kinds of music: good & bad

[@sadoldpedant]

I'm a huge fan of Oscar Peterson, but this is not him at his best, and it has nothing whatever to do with Bach.

[@mikekeyes6102]

I agree - I can't detect any connection at all.

[@axiommt6285]

I really love Oscar Peterson. It's a shame on this recording that mixing (mostly the balance) is awful as the sound of the bassist, it sounds like a cow...... bad sound engineer.....

[@thenamesfrancisco]

why does he can it bachs blues? i thought he was gonna bust into a bluesy ass fugue

[@metacosmos]

Oscar peterson was too much Canadian to play jazz or Bach with softness, he plays too much stiff.

[@metacosmos]

Jazz belongs to the US, in Canada they only imitate, in an academic way , what the US jazzmen do, so did Oscar peterson.

[@MafateCorbeil]

+metacosmos ure so ridiculous man xD

[@metacosmos]

Oscar peterson was an academic player, not a real creator, you must be yankee to do that.

[@reynoldsmathey]

+metacosmos What a troll you are! Jazz is beyond any distinctions of nationality (other than it's origins), and Oscar Peterson may be the finest jazz pianist ever.

[@metacosmos]

he was not, he was a very academic player, he had learnt a lot from the US jazz players but he was not an innovator or a creator. he just adapted the Us jazz art to the Canadian way of life, as it happens with all the Canadian popular music which is an adaptation of the Us popular music to the tastes and way of playing of the canadians.
