For your information, Brad Mehldau plays 'My favorite things' for the first time in this performance, but it is omitted from this video.
1.My favorite things - x
2.Bittersweet symphony & Smells like teen spirit - 00:00
3.Waltz for Jon Brion - 16:29
4.Teardrop - 22:35
5.Dream brother - 31:18
6.This here - 40:14
7.Things behind the sun - 49:21
I think genius like Brad Mehldau intentionally showed a unified organicity in this performance, and as evidence, all improvisation styles are similar.

Does anybody recognize those chords at the very end of Bittersweet and Smells like Teen Spirit? Just before the applause Brad plays these familiar chords. For the life of me I cannot remember the band name or the song but it is a beautiful song from the 90's. There was a music video that had close-ups and sped up video of nature, animals, etc relative to the song title. I can not put my finger on it.

Every time I come across a Brad Mehldau video I haven't seen before, I end up watching the whole thing when I meant to check it out for a minute or two. The man puts on a good show, and he knows how to phrase, holy cow each song is a complete journey on its own.

Mehldau has performed around the world at a steady pace since the mid-1990s, with his trio and as a solo pianist. His performances convey a wide range of expression. There is often an intellectual rigor to the continuous process of abstraction that may take place on a given tune, and a certain density of information. That could be followed by a stripped down, emotionally direct ballad. Mehldau favors juxtaposing extremes. Brad Mehldau Official Site

Brad is a great talent. One may surprised as a jazz musician he was a heroin addict for several years. Thankfully he put it all behind him. Now a married family man with 3 kids he’s a great father. He interviews well, great wit and sense of humor. Speaks his mind very effectively.

Since this concert popped up several weeks ago I have listened to some of it every day, and each day I am moved by Brad's playing. I have not felt this way about contemporary music since Keith Jarret's Bremen/Lausanne in the '70s. I am not much of a jazz fan, but his ability to take different genres and create something new and moving in his improvisation just strikes me as divinely inspired. I know that is a lot to say but the energy he brings out in the music seems almost too much to handle at times in its beauty and depth of feeling. I look forward to hearing more of his music, past and future, and I feel fortunate, and grateful, to have discovered him. (Thanks Rick Beato for your great interview with Brad.)

If someone ever said could you introduce Smells like Teen Spirit, from Nirvana, right after you just finished Bittersweet Symphony by the Verve.. Only Brad, right? Seen him a dozen times. I remember when he was demoing Bittersweet in 08-09. He'd play it right after Paranoid Android, usually. At the time, it was like, "WTF is this?" Wait, is that.. Yeah, I think it is. Later, there'd be a song. That's what seeing Brad live is. Wish I was here for this performance, as it was another one that was amazing.

Keith Jarrett and Brad Mehldau are GOD of Essence of Music and Piano Music. They surpassed Bach, Beethoven, Chopin, Liszt, Brahms, Scriabin, Ravel, Rachmaninoff, Prokofiev, Kapustin, Art Tatum, Thelonious Monk, Oscar Peterson, Bill Evans, Michel Camilo and Gonzalo Rubalcaba. I can confidently assert this.

@tomsplitt4853 3 ай бұрын

It's always a tricky business to compare musicians. Comparisons to Keith Jarrett are understandable but misguided. This guy does not begin to approach the emotional and musical breadth and depth of maestro Jarrett, nor the heartbreaking lyricism, color palette, subtle grace or masterful pianism. In the void left by the maestro's unfortunate absence from the concert stage, we must take comfort and joy in his peerless recordings rather than elevate mediocre pianists to fill it. It's not Mehldau's fault, he is being who he is. It's simply that who he is is not in the same universe as Keith Jarrett.

I wonder what makes Diana Krall technically proficient and educated enough that she only plays real music covers to real music loving crowds. Or what behooves someone to go to a video of an artist he doesn't like to spew his displeasure in the comment section.

@danielbeier9965 Жыл бұрын

Brad studied piano and composition at the Berklee College of Music, I really think this qualifies as education. And if you're a player yourself, you should recognise the technical proficiency after the first bars of bittersweets symphony. It's very hard to split the right hands playing between the melody and accompanying like Brad does. But I'm sure you can do this easily 😉
