YouTube - My Funny Valentine Song Keith Jarrett Trio

[@keith3355]

Can you feel this music deep in your soul as you listen to this master that takes you to places no one can? Keith Jarrett has been a treasure for so long; appreciate this master and his bandmates enriching our lives!!!!!

[@Erikolson99]

This video alone changed my whole perception of jazz

[@nesso011]

What is this man made of? this is so touching, just tears of joy. The world can be so freaking beautiful...

[@fastdeploy]

Luminous. Wondrous. Magical. There are times when I almost cannot get over how perfect this music is.

[@DrRodZen]

My favorite jazz trio. They make very theme lyrical and hypnotic. Can't wait to see them at NJPAC November 30!!!

[@jeffjames15]

I have no chance to see them playing anymore 😢

[@stevezurier]

One of the greatest piano trios ever in jazz. What else more is there to say. Just gorgeous.

[@truro007]

Jarrett has been around for such a long time and never been truly appreciated....amazing pianist.

[@SimonBelowpiano]

I love "My funny Valentine". And this version is great, too. I love it when keith jarrett plays ballads.

[@TakashiMASHIKI]

❤

[@nesso011]

I´m Breathless, this is just, Beautiful!!

[@bleger814]

so light. so bright. brilliant as a star.

[@backpain100]

I just can't get enough of that double bass solo. Simply a sensual performance from the jazz masters.

[@kevtopkin]

One of the most glorious intros ever!

[@christiankrueger9281]

No words can describe the magic.

[@stuorratcox]

Barbara and Nestor's comments say it all. His 1986 version is also out of this world -- but he lands on different planet. He makes both rare explorations. Can hardly wait to see him live Sept 2013 in LA.

[@chuckszmanda6603]

This takes me to a completely different world. The elegance and gentleness of this performance literally causes noticeably physiological changes in me. I love it.

[@bireli91]

Keith Jarrett the best of INNOVATOR.

[@dimsylsodium]

A magical introduction. A magical ending. The rest is simply mesmorising. I can't tire of this medley. Jack's playing is also inspired - no brush strokes for him; but what sensitivity!

[@85nedved]

This is magic

[@TheRobertEllismusic]

i loved his earlier version in the 80's of funny valentine......with same standards trio......

[@paconot]

He is making Love to that piano. What an artist!

[@chuckszmanda6603]

This is about as perfect as it can be. I feel my blood pressure drop when I listen.

[@smintfull]

Perfection!

[@russanthony8604]

He's just painfully aware that his last breaths are numbered; so this GIANT of a man/musician/jazzer gives you rare glimpses into his. Keith Jarrett doesn't know to give you anything else

[@Bluesrains]

This Is Soooooooo Beautiful!!!

[@vp702]

Music from God !

[@Lived2112]

beautiful

[@paniov]

I can only imagine what it will be like if Keith Jarrett, Charlie Haden and Chet Baker could ever play together...

[@htrizzle]

One of the finest versions ever , up there along with Bill Evans and Jim Hall versions , for me .

[@Pocahontass12345]

Fucking beautiful! I've heard it so many times and I' m still impressed Demn it!

[@alcinooc]

Fantastic!!

[@Pocahontass12345]

God thank you for Jarret

[@fonquee]

4:04 something wonderful happens...

[@twgirl1]

Pretty good !! Beautiful

[@tonmeister_reif]

AWESOME!

[@Guitarkungfu]

I would say that the intro is from his years of training and hard practice. The talent just helps.

[@thc00250]

I remember that legendary base man LaFaro.

[@RQLuib]

great pianist!

[@MissPudding-r5b]

Puro talento

[@mic270469]

se non è un capolavoro questo..

[@fonquee]

Heaven.

[@danielnatzke6733]

If you are a transcriber and Keith Jarrett-imitator: Find the transcription to his intro to this song from his "Still Live" album, then pair it with the intro he does here.

[@itvrielvs]

Shhh, Shhh i'm listening. :)

[@mateo2006]

@Bassko Yes. I thought so too. Peacock comes in 'pitchy' in a way that doesn't work for me at the onset but then moves into the beautiful.

[@ChicoFlavioRodrigues]

KJ is unique when he plays ballads. xF - Rio de Janeiro

[@Keef-n5g]

RIP Ronnie Paisley

[@PinkyPie000]

yeah or from hours of playing + the talent

[@malilacreuse]

aufait demain c est la saint valentin je dedie ce morceau delicat a mon epouse qui j espere appreciera excuse moi milesje prefere cette version

[@InspectriceGadget]

Of course yeah !

[@Juanchin74]

constipated...but beautiful!!!

[@jameseastope]

@lurion...What a beautiful thing to say...Good on you, your absolutely right

[@kurinakornel1]

Meditation!:)

[@TheEntity91]

@otavioandradas where do the thoughts come from? How does Keith Jarrett generate these thoughts, who gave him these thoughts? He has been endowed with an ability, and with hard work has made that endowment larger and larger. He has sewn many seeds, and is reaping his reward, but lets not forget that it was not him who gave himself the first seed to plant.

[@squoocher]

good point!

[@drumsNdroms]

quand la musique devient profondément spirituelle...

[@TheRobertEllismusic]

@rmac1042 i cannot separate music from personality ..to me they flow out of each other

[@TheRobertEllismusic]

@mateo2006 Sure i agree.....bass players are awesome.the ones that played were Oscar were impeccable.Ray Brown..etc...maybe in that trio, gary gets overwhelmed by the others intensity..bass plays a crucial role in a jazz trio.i've played in them they can cause the trio to soar or sink.or even more demanding,think. I met Oscar Peterson once- a solo concert.got to go back stage and hang.wow..what a nice man.-wownever forget his kindness and genuine humanity..he remembered my first name at parting

[@nocchiare]

A Technical question: What do you think about "Song"? Is it the final extension of "My Funny Valentine" or is it the new melody of the first chorus (played on the chord change of My Funny Valentine). My opinion is the answer is the second one, because Jarrett incorporates "My Funny Valentine" inside his composition ("Song") and it starts at the second chorus, Let me know, Ciao RIno

[@jazzman785]

Did you see him at UCLA as well? Great performance..

[@billevanstime]

@Lerneotine please search and listen on you tube " Jarrett umbria jazz 2007 ". I was there....How many times your idol did he play with Miles Davis? what is his influence in the jazz story? Like Monk? Like Bill Evans? Like Art Tatum ?

[@klaasdesomer]

3:07 was Gary playing the beginning of Mike Stern's 'Chromazone' or what?!

[@ppjjazz]

@otavioandradas Sure! So, you don't need to worry about questions that do not exist!

[@123must]

also Jack and Gary are among the best!

[@gouldenshow]

high priests of humanity

[@arnaudbouchet4477]

Ca c'était le morceau fétiche de Chet Baker, difficile de l'oublier avec tambour mais sans trompette.

[@kradomirchoukroutov6362]

+arnaud bouchet Et le chorus de George Coleman sur la version de Miles???

[@123must]

and what about the Massters Gary Peacock and Jack De Johnette?

[@tal8631]

Does anybody know where can I find the music sheet of the piano ? Best, Tal

[@cartbaby]

Yes, what dvd is this from?

[@slanecastle57]

I certainly do not understand the race/species comments,only that KJs music is soul searing.....

[@TheSecondNature]

@otavioandradas man your comment is amazin! shows that there's not just dumb ppl in the world ;)

[@TheEntity91]

@otavioandradas I understand why you asked the first question about why Celestial entities are associated with good and bad with human distortion, and I will restate my claim that man can do good through his own efforts, i.e, Keith Jarrett's work ethic. However, besides the work ethic there was something given to him something more. I study music in school, and compose, me and my peers always talk about how for me i hear music it comes to me whether subconsciously, for them not so much.

[@whatisupdoc]

bonjour, hello an other version of "my funny valentine" deejay/tp

[@MartinLlorensCaminotti]

2:55 Keith it's tryng to say no to gary????

[@TheEntity91]

@otavioandradas I'm sure KJ would tell you that whether or not his compositions are great are not to everyone is neither hear nor there. It is the way they come about that are, to me, the proof of God providing him with a gift. Finally, why God gave KJ a great talent and chose to ignore the starving. He did not ignore the starving. His blessing is with those children as well, however we as man have free will, so we can create horrible situations for ourselves and offspring (i.e, Joseph Kony)

[@Bozkicksyourface]

@Lerneotine But, playing music isn't about being extraordinary, it's about creating something. Music, after all, is experienced in a way that is supposed to provoke emotion and imagination.

[@vanea99]

@OdinOurSaviour Something is wrong. He is Gary Peacock, a respected name in the jazz world. But here (and there) he sounds strange. Maybe because he was at first a science man - microbiologist, I believe :)

[@QuestionYourThoughts]

där spelar de i videon?

[@twangbarfly]

You may feel KJ is overrated - I feel some things like Köln have been hugely overrated, and I agree that it is a marketing phenomenon. But that's business for you. I'm pleased that he has been so successful so we can hear more of him, and I am pleased that the funds have allowed Manfred Eicher to bring lots of other great music to our attention through ECM. I am happy that this has been achieved through marketing at KJ's expense, even though KJ might prefer the money for himself!

[@DavidHartley88]

Directly from Jarrett, yes...but he's actually borrowing it from Santa Claus.

[@pfmfan38]

Right, sorry, but I was misunderstood. I just thought that the sentence "Respect Keith Jarrett, man." was addressed to some other comment. I have removed mine now. I, too, believe Jarrett is one of the greatest.

[@htrizzle]

Btw who the hell dislikes this?? This is when you know that humanity has a problem .

[@ppjjazz]

@otavioandradas Yes, people must react to what seams wrong for them. What I was saying is that we must not be so offensive, considering ourselves greater than the others, "the owner of all truth", saying that someone's question is illegitmate (and it's a question hold by the whole human race since we have notice!)

[@lmagee1948]

This is a test of the Google+ link.

[@NAMEEMAN-m7v]

sorry i say this but in some way keith jarrett let's remind me 2 kareem abdul-jabbar :p but he's 1 of the greatest pianists ever ;)

[@arielgtuy]

@lurion I'm sure you meant "species" rather than "race", right?

[@TheEntity91]

@otavioandradas Then we make the same error. Please answer my question. Where does it come from, are you implying that Keith Jarrett has generated it himself? He is obviously different exceptionally so. In my opinion it is due to an incredible work ethic and a undeniable talent. I choose to attribute the placing of this talent to a divine being, God. If you decide that he has given himself this talent, or that this is the product of his had work solely, i beg to differ.

[@twangbarfly]

@billevanstime Again, these are your opinions - you can dress them up all you like and try to support them with biography - what I'm saying is keep the life and the music separate. Which is why I mentioned Bill Evans - I LOVE Bill's music, as I love Jarrett's. However, in my view there are hints of genius in his music, but that is just my view, others may agree or disagree. Some say Beethoven was a genius... Like others, I find much of his music boring, but mine is not the only viewpoint.

[@billevanstime]

@twangbarfly I don't insult anyone. Please digit " Keith Jarrett Perugia" on "search" you tube and you have your answer.

[@MultiJaylea]

CLOSE..

[@TheEntity91]

@otavioandradas I did not address the atypical starving African child bc i want to separate the issue whether God is all good, and whether a part of Keith Jarrett's talent is metaphysical. They have no bearing on one another, but i have answers for that as well, just want to hit one point at a time. Whether KJ is a prolific composer is not one I am debating. What i am debating is that he has a gift, talent, for music. Music is in his head. This is not of him, nor his is it due to lineage.

[@billevanstime]

@pianoman7256 Right. Bill is dead 30y ago...I'm developing forward Paul Bley , Brad Meldhau and the italian pianist Enrico Pieranunzi. I don't love pianobar music.

[@TheRobertEllismusic]

will gary peacock ever play in perfect tune.....? it must be hard to control that mammoth bass ..keith is good..but damn he forces so much......too much would make one sick....the song is beautiful played in it's original simplicity......keith is always chipping away at something more esoteric....nice when achieves sweet melody.....check out rob ellis beethoven improv on utube if you want soulful improv...unabashed self promotion...here peace take care peace.i like his 80-s version of valentine

[@JLorz84]

There's nothing he cannot play

[@Marybainsfort]

ALL good creativity comes from God. Are we so arrogant as to assume that it comes from our mere, meager, mortal selves ?

[@twangbarfly]

@MCalixte89 Yes, I know all about the Koln concert, the sickness, the poor piano... - the irony is that I was replying to someone criticising Jarrett. Read the conversation. 9 out of 10 people who know of Jarrett know him only though this record, and in that sense I feel it is overrated, i.e. in relation to the rest of his output. I simply mean that there is MUCH, MUCH more to KJ than simply the Köln concert! FYI I admire KJ's playing greatly and have dozens of his CDs (including Köln) :-)

[@TheEntity91]

@otavioandradas People are not silly for truly believing in God, it takes courage, it takes humility to know that life is far more than what I will ever intellectualize to be. How many times in history has man through sciences, through math, oh so confidently believed they had it all figured it out, for only years later to be disproved. Just because we cannot mathematically, or scientifically explain Keith Jarrett, or even if we could it does not remove God's presence in him, to me.

[@rmac1042]

@TheRobertEllismusic Keith Jarrett's ego is frightening. I do not excuse his antisocial behavior, believe me (though his course shenanigans may have ameliorated since his chronic fatigue syndrome episode). Thank God I can get beyond Keith's irritating personal peccadillos and just surround myself with the beauty of his sound and fertility of his imagination.

[@frody8pie]

@otavioandradas FYI, the only thing KJ cares about is... KJ.

[@TheEntity91]

@otavioandradas I'm done doing this YT, no disrespect, just that this isn't the place for that I believe it takes away from the beauty of the video that people came here for, but please reply, and if you want to continue the conversation we can exchange emails, if not, wish you all the best. God bless.

[@TheEntity91]

@otavioandradas Please understand, Adolf Hitler and the very disturbed student are not talented, they are disturbed. They are many notable pianist (i,e. Alfred Brendel) whose parents were not musicians, many poor pianist whose parents could not afford piano's when younger. However, these pianist have risen to the top and, again with hard work and talent, have become amazing in their craft. Keith Jarrett has something that not even genes could provide. If that were the case, where are the rest?

[@twangbarfly]

@billevanstime How long did Monk play with Miles??? The fact that you are a musician does not give any extra weight to your position - you are simply expressing your personal preferences - which is fine, but is not any reason for insulting KJ and everyone here who likes him. We're not comparing rock guitarists :-) I love Pieranunzi but I wouldn't put him quite in the same class as Jarrett. Mehldau neither. Just my opinion. Anyway, why did you "waste" your money on seeing Jarrett in Umbria???
