The "A" Train rendition @ 3:35 is absolutely monumental...Michel will live in our hearts as a musical genius for all time....

It's almost as if he knew that his time on earth would be short so he packed a lifetime's worth of music into what little time he had. And he did it EXTREMELY well.

Michel petrucciani is such an amazing and brilliant musician. His alchemy of cord, key, Melody, and rhythm are continuously ethereal. Each time I hear him play, I hear something new and fresh.

damn the 90 ies . what a great time ! Musicaly, Petrucciani was a gift from heaven . awsome energie and a intensity, which is very scarce around pianists today.

I have that live album of Petrucciani's; I was just getting to know him in around 2000. I happened to hear his version of Besame Mucho, which was played at the concert as well. I got lucky and was listening to a jazz station and was recording onto tape when played over the radio. Played the tune to death; didn't know what the song was until several years later and got the whole album. One of my favourites.

This musical period is the best of Michel (theatre des Champs Elysées the greatest album I’ve ever heard in solo piano !). I m listening this musical genius every day since ten years now… and it is still magic and new every time. Thanks Michel

When he started playing A Train and I saw that womans reaction 💯🙈 what a moment Incredible and he just nonchalantly explains it like it was nothing haha. Having physical disabilities or differences as he refers to it just makes it even more incredible

I got to see him on a few occasions in the 80s and 90s in San Francisco, Oakland and Saratoga CA. He was such an amazing talent and cool dude. I didn't know he was responsible for bringing Charles Lloyd out of retirement. That's monumental.

It is such a pity Michel died 3 years after this interview. Let's play his music and compositions forever like Estate, Looking Up, etc.

What song was at 22:03

@chambersofhourrors9393 2 жыл бұрын

Hi RazzerRaw, In the interview he talks about mashing-up classical music with jazz improvisation. Having Shazamed the exert it comes up with a Chopin Nocturne Op. 55 No. 2 and there are similarities to the theme but it's definitely Michel's take on it! Cheers

@@chambersofhourrors9393 Awesome pickup! I’ve been studying classical for years and the Chopin Melody didn’t cross my ear once, he’s truly remarkable at improvising. Do any other pieces like this come to mind ? I’ve been loving this ballad style. I’ve heard many of his Including his Besame Mucho, Flamingo, Hidden Joy, Night Sun in Blois, Would love to find more pieces with this style :)

This song is called "Lush Life" by Billy Strayhorn. I too love Michel Petrucciani's rendition! He often plays this song alone or in a medley. I also recommend Phineas Newborn Jr.'s version.

It is his from an album he made at about that time. I saw him at Sunrise Records in Fort Lauderdale in 1986. It was a small room and he was there for a benefit for another musician. Joe Sample was there and it was magic. Funny, but I can't remember if Red Rodney was there or if it was Ira Sullivan. Too many years ago. The place was packed and he came in on another musician's shoulder.
