Kurt Rosenwinkel interviewed by Pablo Held

[@Jazzbuff1970]

Pablo Held is a gifted musician, but he is also an accomplished interviewer. He allows a comfortable space for his interviewee, and isn’t afraid of brief silence for collecting thoughts. He is listening without interrupting, yet responding with tactful backchanneling. Pablo’s empathy along with his vast knowledge of music is of great advantage to his interviews. These interviews are invaluable documents of jazz history. Many thanks, and keep up the good work, Pablo!

Wow thanks for the kind words!!

This is the deepest Kurt interview I've heard. Maybe you can bring him back for part 2 soon. Thank you Pablo! For those who aren't clear on what Kurt is talking about from 1:25:51 to about 1:30:00, by "sabotage" he's means he drastically re-tuned the guitar and fundamentally destroyed what he previously knew about the fretboard (The new tuning was the incredibly different Bb G Db Ab Bb Eb instead of standard tuning EADGBe). If you're an advanced guitarist you can appreciate how unbelievable this is, especially while you listen to Zhivago or other songs from The Next Step album.

Thanks for watching!

[@briansilcox5720]

Cycle 5 has a very “Pablo-esque” feel to it.

[@tiesergrote]

I agree with you so much about 'vine' .. i feel like 'the unquiet' by matt penman has a similar vibe, especially kurts playing

[@konoharf]

For sure, even the artwork is probably made by the same artist, there are other albums one of them from Mark Turner with the same artstyle in the album cover. Great albums! Also great interview!!

[@jarediledundee]

I too smiled when Pablo mentioned 'Vine' because I've always thought the same thing. And you're so right about 'The Unquiet' having a similar magic. I might also add 'Kris Bauman Quartet', Joel Frahm's 'Live at Smalls with Kurt Rosenwinkel' and of course...my ALL TIME FAVORITE Kurt side-man appearance...'Dharma Days' (I've probably listened to that album 8 million times)

[@danielorts1512]

Great stuff as always! Thank you, you are both so inspiring! Where does the audio of intro/outro come from? I know it's East Coast Love Affair, but don't know that version.

“ alligators in lava … lavagators”.

[@PabloHeldmusic]

I like that

[@Remi-B-Goode]

by the way i know exactly what he meant, i m always stuck in this one (or two) way of playing a theme :'( i will improve that i hope!

[@HUGEFLYINGWHALE]

Great interview! Also, 56:00 is hilarious

[@PabloHeldmusic]

haha, I know what you mean

[@tonyedwards4067]

wishing you can do an interview with the amazing Igor Osypov in the future...
