Funk Blues(G Minor) - Jazz Improv By Yohan Kim

[@paulgrem]

I'm an old guy who's been listening to piano jazz since I was 15. And now, 55 years later, I can say .... this is about as good as it gets. Yohan is a special player.

[@rey6179]

He really really is.

[@whitestealthable]

Agreed! He hits that jazz sweet spot for people our age. He has enough material to put out a CD. Not sure why he has not.

[@vasapianocovers6331]

@@whitestealthable Probably because big record labels rip off artists and take a lot of their hard earned money. Recording and publishing an album is pretty expensive ans requires a lot of logistics and time which artists don't have time for. That's when you go to a record label which will probably try to own you and your work. Hope this answet is helpful :D

[@nathan87]

Oh come on. I'm not gonna dump on Yohan, but this is noodling.

[@Williamk492]

I totally agree with you. I’ve watched this video about 50 times already but am still amazed every time.

[@restorationconcrete]

This guy is such a rare talent. His dexterity plus his ear make him incredibly unique in the world of jazz. Way to go Johan. Love it.

[@emmyraldx]

When a legend himself comments on someone's ability as great, now that speaks volume.

2:53 GODDAMN

[@joshuaaddai-naami1479]

Ikr! I almost screamed

[@NCloyd51]

Wow! I’ve got this on repeat

[@camloff]

I am 81 and this the best piece of Funk Blues ... my congrats YOHAN.

[@logistikenka5229]

I cant't stop listen... eventhough 7 times in a day.. All of his videos...

[@anamrake]

Those left-hand jabs synchronizing with right-hand improvisations.. wow!

[@ccesaram]

You are amazing. God bless your life. Love hearing you playing.

[@TheUKMikey]

1:23 is my favourite. Look at Yohan's face when he pulls off that difficult run

[@llllllllllllllIIlIllIIllIIIIll]

UKMikey nice

[@Yannick999993]

I think he is smiling because he messed up a little

[@paulatkinson9095]

The best keyboardist I’m impressed with his skills at such a young age There’s no ceiling to his talent

[@martialkenel7834]

For some time now, Yohan has discovered the jazz universe and, like in any style he has experienced so far, pop, rock, blues, funk, latino or even fusion, he's capable of bringing out his performances and his improvisations to such a degree of excellence that it makes him simply untouchable. For me Yohan, you are or will probably be one of the best musicians ever of the century. You are an extraterrestrial !!

[@trevormckinnon6696]

Real cool. You have a great feel for the groove. Pianists like Joe Sample, George Duke or Jeff Lorber would be so proud of you.

[@johnnisshansen]

he is simply fantastic

[@marilynd.7938]

Bravo. This young man is without a doubt quite a talent. An upcoming star on the jazz scene for sure.

[@rubandanmusic]

Scene or not, this man is a legend...! All the grooves are not just technical, they are tasteful and musical too!!

[@i-told-you-sodear1526]

I was mind blown by his chops at the piano that time stood still and nothing mattered but his musical world.

[@christianty7528]

how i wish i knew how to play the piano and get to this kind of playing skill. so much training and commitment behind such good vibes and soul

[@dahlias888]

wow, you're the real thing! Truly talented piano player/musician!

[@sandertangen1774]

[@JoeSneaker]

You were good as a kid. It's amazing watching you grow into the fine musician that you are today.

[@stephenphilpott6772]

For such a young lad, your skills blow me away everytime i watch your videos,, this was an epic jam, unbelievable funk, certinly a Grand Master of the piano. 🎹

[@stinusd]

0:10 the lick

[@27shogun58]

ahaha almost

[@ferdinandtorres8560]

[@Delight_band]

stinus damholt 99% all music like BIG licks 😂😉🎹👌🏼

[@allvegansaretall4157]

also at the end is the lick. Like very last lick is the actual lick

[@arieltabuzojr2434]

Came from work, felt stress and then this pops up to my youtube, I feel relaxed already such a good piece of funky music.

[@restorationconcrete]

That’s just stupid good! I never cease to be amazed by Johan. I’d pay big bucks to see him live.

[@disneybudgetinn3752]

This guy is too much of a good thing. I, myself, had decades ago imagined of improvising on the piano to New Wave music but had never got around to it although it'd been in the back of my mind, plus I knew it would be a big time consuming technical hurdle, but here Yohan, this incredible youngster, was able to bring his ideas onto the keyboard with no sweat, and I understand he does it just by ear, just boggles my mind.

[@mikeros92821]

He's got one of the best hands in jazz today!

[@High-Tower12]

I usually watch a video all the way through before I go back and relisten to my favorite parts. But I couldnt. This was so fire that I couldnt let it go. Truly one of the greatest of our time.

[@JarodWille]

I love whenever you play traditional jazz and funk like this!!!

[@restorationconcrete]

I never tire of listening to this kid! Crazy good. His ear and choice of chords and lines is so mature!

[@thenov1944]

YOUNG MAN , Would be a Better Choice !

[@kinoppy2]

Yohan, you will be the most popular jazz pianist in the world very near future!!

[@ronaldohenrique6229]

YOHAN KIM AT THE PIANO AND GABRIEL HENRIQUE SINGING, ARE THE BEST OF THE WORLD.

[@elisabethsiadous3]

Bravo you've really got groove, swing, sensitivity.... Wish you all the best and sending you a bit bonjour from France

[@honeysoi]

There is so much musical background and feeling in this piece. It’s amazing !

[@sevafarzaliyeva3110]

I could listen to this incredible musician nonstop . ❤ Bless you, Yohan.

[@MrYgor44]

Невероятная экспрессия невероятного музыканта, невероятно молодого и невероятно талантливого! Так держать! Спасибо, Йохан! Incredible expression of an incredible musician, incredibly young and incredibly talented! Keep it up! Thank You, Johan! 놀라운 표현의 음악가,믿을 수 없을만큼 젊은이와 믿을 수 없을만큼 재능있는! Keep it up! 감사,요한!

[@あ嘆きのぐっすん]

This is just my kind of jazz, which wanna listen to it while driving my car. I feel like driving the midnight highway.

[@Banderas777]

Jezu Chryste. Niech Bóg Ci Błogosławi. Muzyka przez Ducha Świętego. Super :)

[@TheNyhm1]

Not much of a jazz fan.........except when someone plays like this. This is excellent

[@victoryv7552]

처음엔 요한님의 연주가 좋다 못해 부럽고 타고난 재능에 원망스럽기까지 했는데 이제는 연주력을 떠나서 영상에서 보이는 요한님의 음악을 대하는 태도와 즐거워하는 모습이 너무 보기 좋고 즐겁습니다! 훗날 제 자식도 요한님처럼 연주는 못하더라도 이렇게 악기를 연주하며 즐거워했으면 좋겠네요ㅎㅎ 오늘도 최고의 연주 잘듣고 갑니다!

[@chobob1101]

진짜 어떻게 이렇게 잘치지?! 미친거같다....진짜 너무 잘친다..항상 연주 너무 잘 듣고 있습니다....유튜브가 있어서 다행이네요 이렇게 영상으로나마 연주하는것도 보고ㅠㅠ

[@andrewagner3854]

Not sure if it's intentional on his part...but there's a lot of joe sample flavor in his playing...awesome..!!!!

[@damubantu6562]

Yes, This is a Joe Sample improv influenced (conscious or unconscious) piece. Joe was so lyrical in his playing and Yohan demonstrates the same in this piece.

[@mixmusicarts9004]

I swear I see smoke and flames rising from the keyboard whenever he's done playing. 🔥🎹🔥
