Imagine being 16 year old playing at Tblisi Jazz fest, with Chick Corea playing next to you telling you, "come on!". Holy shit

[@OS-yg9fr]

i don't have to imagine. when i was 16, chicks told me to come on things all the time

[@alw9316]

imagine being able to play well in a performance with chick correa RIP the god

[@MichaelV_piano]

RIP for Chick.

[@Kurama52]

I asked Brian Blade if I could help him with anything when he was setting up to soundcheck at Skidmore College. He asked me to grab his cymbals and thanked me when I returned with them. I hadn't heard him play before the show but afterwards I realized it was me who should have thanked him, what an honor! He has an unbelievable sensitivity when he plays, wow. I was working that show but he even asked my name with gratitude. Means a lot that there are musicians like this, thank you Mr. Blade.

[@OS-yg9fr]

well i kissed him on the lips without asking, so i win.

[@MsNavroze]

It is the greatness of Corea to recognize, invite and play with younger musicians

[@cbmuzik3000]

Chick is a humble guy to sit beside a young kid who's burning those keys up...but Chick had so many years of fire music what does he care at this point but to make sure that kids are interested in jazz? Love this guy!

I have absolutely no words. Amazing! Corea always blows me away.

[@TheMojoTribe]

that synergy is immense... the way they articulate off each other and transition lead was beautiful let alone their creative phrasing. I loved the direction of the music; the way it developed was so sublime. watching it I felt immersed and in tune with where they were going.

[@TheMojoTribe]

ah i presumed this was wholly improvised not over changes, that would have been post-human i suppose. still so impressive

[@Group2Matrix]

I worked for Chick as a monitor guy many years ago with his Electric band and he always blows me away. Chick is tha bomb and always will be. Much love and respect for him and his band.

[@wadecottingham]

could not stop watching/listening. fascinating jazz for the entire set. a great great jazz video on so many levels. LOVE the smiles on McBride and Blade's faces during Beka's solos, I think they smile because Beka's got it TOGETHER and is on fire to play. Thanks so much for this wonderful post. just downloaded beka's new CD, been waiting for it.

[@GSWCarr]

You can see here that Beka is light-years ahead of the game in terms of talent, but he still has a long way to go at the same time. The sky's the limit for this kid!

Man this kid is really going to be big, I have been listening to Chick my entire life and have never heard anyone that can duplicate his songs, note for note, add notes and copy his technique.

[@cybermonk2678]

He has become Absolute Monster Already. I am from his country, working in Jazz Club and he plays with us time to time. He is incredible, I think, as a performer he is one of the greatest in history already. I've been quite subjective here but music is subjective. I will link one of his performances with Stanley Clarke band down there, so Enjoy.

Who cares about the theory behind the music. The audience does not care. Its so filled of emotion. You hear it in the notes he plays.

[@rickperlstein9988]

Use your ears, dude, his phrasing and inventiveness is outstanding.

[@rickperlstein9988]

Where is he "running up and down the scale" in his solo at 14:20?

[@DangerousPOSSE]

around the 14min mark Beka is absolutely KILLING it. amazing

[@rickydraper]

This set is wonderful! You can see that Beka has studied Chick's style (as well as other jazz greats)... And for his years of study, one of the master's, Chick Corea, shows a true appreciation and admiration toward Beka & symbolically the younger generation of jazz musicians!! long story short.. I'm jealous :|

[@StephenSpivack]

damn he's fucking amazing. they play so well together

[@timkjazz]

[@jimtakahashi4638]

Such a heart-warmer on a rather chilly Autumn night (here in NZ)! The greatest trio of today + a brilliant young talent from Georgia. Yes, Georgia … this area of Europe seems to be rapidly developing in many aspects including music. I’m reminded of the great jazz guitarist, Ryo Kawasaki, who has been living in Estonia for years. There must be something great happening on the east side of Europe.

[@357CLOUDY]

Thanks for the upload! Awesome music...Kinda sad these jazz fest don't take place often where I live unless its at some expensive vineyard in Cali....America NEEDS this music yesterday. This music will stop any rioting and cause more inspiring... If I were a Mayor and something bad went down in my city, I'd be on the phone calling musicians and erecting stages imploring all that would to come listen while in mourning. Into the night...

[@МішаЧижик-е7ф]

Молодець.

[@rancorlutner4186]

What an incredible performance by a 70+ Chick and 16 year old Beka. But can there be any other kind by either one of these two musicians? At the time of the performance, Beka was only 16 years old and still kind of Chick's musical Mini Me, but the his own musical voice was flowering and has only grown vastly stronger. Someone mentioned how frightened they would have been if they had been Beka, but Beka was leaping to get up on the stage and play next to Chick, who I consider to possibly the worlds greatest living musician. It was a performance and a master class with Chick for Beka, and an opportunity to jam with McBride and Blade, 2 other growing legends. Just can't say enough, so I'll go back to listening to the Corea/Gary Burton album I just bought.

Merci.

[@componentwear4461]

Beka is simply stunning

[@ThePlankRocks]

Four amazing musicians there. Beka is astounding. It also says a lot for Chick Corea. How many world class musicians would do that? Two great jazz pianists playing side by side so you can't spot the join of their lines when you close your eyes (at least I didn't). Many years ago I was admonished for using the phrase "the great Chick Corea". Well I guess it was the wrong word back then (I'm late mid-fifties and was a school boy when I first listened to him). I've got loads of "his"* albums ranging from the sublime to the "um, I think I'll just put that one at the back somewhere". *"his" in quotes because most of "his" stuff involves other musicians who are in no means in mere supporting roles. (Wish I could express that better. As a great leader he's a great supporter.)

[@michaelbrickley2443]

ThePlankRocks, He had supporters and he has done the same. God bless his heart and soul

[@22082208ful]

Great take of the song with an even greater personnel. It's easy to see Beka is having the time of his life, watching Chick play those lines right in front of him.

Yes this guy is young and no one is disputing this. I am saying give credit in all places. As I said before there is a lot of great talent right here as well that needs to be seen and heard.
