I heard Bill Evans play in a small club in Hermosa Beach, Ca. a few times. Mr. Ivanov, you recreated his touch brilliantly, sounded as if Bill was playing it himself. Thank you, you took me back 50+ years.

My father played piano and since I was 5 years old...played this piece for me. I learned it on flute at 13 yrs old. My father died 10 years later. It is my piece of him. My piece. So appreciate your keeping it alive. I am no 59 ....my whole life is wrapped in this song.

I’ve probably listened to the original recording 50,000+ times. One day I played it on repeat all day nonstop and it was the most serene day ever. The articulation in this performance is immaculate. The timings, phrasing and flawless touch produces the tone that only Evans could do. I’m speechless. This will be the definitive performance for many. I would bet if one were to play both side by side- this artist was 99% spot on! Bravo!

It has amazing power, and I deeply appreciate your ability here to play this in a way that evokes the spaciousness I hear in the original. You place notes like crystal flowers in space and they keep blooming, blooming until I'm overwhelmed. Bravo!

Evans led a complicated and troubled life. Very sad. However, who can doubt he would be happy to know his that work would make it to the classical concert hall, for the enjoyment folks who likely never bought any of his records, and likely never even knew about either him, or his music? I'm sure Bill would thank you for it, if he could.

@johnfreund4456 10 ай бұрын

I’ve been playing this song for years, mostly as a meditation, and played it public a few times. I never transcribed it, but I studied it. I wouldn’t dream of learning to play it note for note as it’s not that kind of piece, and it’s unlikely that Evans ever intended that, or did that. I looked for another interpretation by him for a while in hopes getting an idea what if ANY of it was set. Long ago I gave up looking and just I settled on opening with the ostinato, then the RH "G-D" and then just going from there. I just NOW found this from 1978: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/jqqTedGHmdGxXWg.html And he doesn’t even do the G-D. And there it is: The ostinato is the only thing that’s set. Sometimes I take a nod from it’s re-interpretation as Flamenco Sketches and modulate it, and I almost always leave the pedal down for the entire piece and let the piano do it’s thing. That being said, in the same way any piece of music is up to the listener or interpreter once the creator puts it out there (and so we’re free to completely reform it), learning the stunningly beautiful improvisation from 1958 and doing it as homage is also, perfectly legit and Ivanov does a lovely job. I can’t decide if his choice of thumbnail image was a nice touch or taking the homage too far! ;^) So @stassav4, I know what you mean, but I certainly would not say it that way.
