  • impresionante como tocan la verdad si michel camilo no se junta con musicos mediocres el sabe quien es bueno. me gusto super!!!

  • Perdón: No es Giovanni!!! Un gran respeto al percusionista pero con Hidalgo las manos y el sonido van en el mismo camino

  • Giovani Hidalgo (conga player)

  • TU WEA FOME CONCHE TU AMDREANAJAJJA

  • wow! i love it...well done..

  • who's the conga player?

  • If I was Music......I would marry this man !!!

  • Just magic!

  • Ay, music for the soul, it tastes really good!

  • wow, this is very fast

  • its funny how the title says music.. music is a small word for that !

  • Comparing Camilo with Rubalcaba is like comparing Horowitz with Rubinstein ...

  • It's Amazing!! As a personal opinion, Mr. Camilo is out of this world not only because he can perform like this, but because he "invented" it. Before, no one played latin with this kind of stride technique and soloing at the same time. Now if a profesional player practice 10hs a day, maybe in a year he can do it no only with this song but with many other, but he will be playing "Michelle Camilo Style". Now as latin jazz pianist I like Gonzalo Rubalcaba a bit more. What do you all think?

  • @MUSAsTrio i'm new to mr. camilo-- love this video-- but since around '91 (when 'Images: live at mt. fuji' came out), I've loved gonzalo rubalcaba-- he has an energy that borders on the supernatural, and a style that brims with verve and invention! TOTALLY love him!

  • El congo es perdidasooo .. espectacularrr

  • Arrechisimo!!!!! No entiendo las doce personas que no le gustan! BAH!

  • 12 people... maybe they dont like technical fireworks piano playing.

    Some guys hate Latin music, Latin jazz, etc

    But you know that?

    Thats not hard to Michell or Latin Jazz Musician like Blues is easy to Black people

    So That is not Technical playing to them. understand?

  • @MrSunofbeach all because youre black doesnt mean you can play the plays, and just because youre latin doesnt mean playing the blues doesnt come as easy. Camilo, Corea, Mehldau, and countless others can blues out their ass

  • i love that he always smiles XD

  • Hola michel vivo en los angeles mi numero 323-835-7751 william scott

  • Estoy sin palabras......

  • literalmente me defeque

  • maravilloso

    

  • pianista fantástico!

  • simplemente MAGISTRAL!!!

  • Chevere...

  • 12 pianistas se quitaron la vida después de ver este video!!!!

  • prodigio de hombre en el piano

  • This is great, but you should also check out Michael Brecker doing it on tenor sax. That video is equally great in a completely different way.

  • Musicalmente um monstro. Muito bom.

  • I now understand why there's been 11 thumbs down! I hit it assuming it was 'add to favorite' button myself

  • everytyme i see a pianist i remain impressed by the speed of his fingers

  • No entiendo como Michel puede hacer todo eso con sus dedos y encima Reir... jajaja... es un MAESTRO!!!!!

  • What is most pleasurable is that an American percussionist is playing a latin form, and a Dominican pianist is playing the jazz form, which one could look at as cross-culture sharing. Beautiful :)

  • @SebastienLoong word. But how does he get that strong latin sound when you plays one one note with both hands

  • @danieljones013 If you're talking about the percussionist, the instrument is obviously designed for that genre... but I'm not quite sure what you mean. :)

  • @SebastienLoong pianist. there is a technique where they play two notes at one time (one with each hand) and i dnt know the intervals

  • @danieljones013 Yeah I know what you mean. It's a jazz technique (I'm sure I've seen other jazz pianists do it) is it not an octave? But with the Latin sound, I think it's got more to do with the rhythms he uses. :)

  • Comment removed

  • @SebastienLoong It doesnt seem like an octave... im not sure wether it is parallel sixths, but im not sure i tried sixths and octives. I can play octives with one hand it doesnt sound close. What do think the interval is? He starts playing the technique at 3:40

  • @SebastienLoong If you pause it while he plays it it looks like the same note two octaves apart... one note in the bass cleff and the same note two octaves above that. What do you think?

  • @danieljones013 you're right. The rhythm and the feel that makes it more Latin sound.

  • the lead in after the intro sounds so much like Mambo For Roy!

  • sheet music !!!! somebody plz share it!!!!!!

  • !mira eso! unos de los enanitos de blancanieves tocando las congas

  • Michel Camilo "Mano a Mano" with Giovanni Hidalgo and Charles Flores Will Be At the 2011 Newport Jazz Festival on Saturday, August 6th!!!

  • nice!!!!!

  • 9 people quitted playing piano after watching this video.

  • @bilgez25 make that 10 haha

  • @bilgez25 I understand lol, i would give back 10 years of my life (if I had) to play piano like he does

  • @bilgez25 10 si me incluyes a mi...

  • @bilgez25 Make that 12 people.

  • @bilgez25 Maravilhoso vídeo!

  • @bilgez25: You mean more like 9 million, don't you! (smile!!). I saw Michel in concert at Lehman College (Bronx, NY!) with Eddie Palmieri - El Maestro! BUT, Eddie better watch out - he's the Old Master, to be sure, a legend also - BUT, El Dominicano, (the Dominican Flash), and his drummer, a young cat, took the audience on a musical journey not to be believed! The drummer went through about 6 pairs of drumsticks!! Watch Michel with Chucho and see what Latin Piano Heaven must be like!!

  • @bilgez25 And 5 more quitted playing congas. 

  • Michel you are GOD!!!

  • primeramente es: talento musical - estudiarlo y desarrollarlo al maximo - practicar y practicar - ver las maravillas musicales creadas jeje

  • 9 people they not known about good music

  • barbaroo barbaroo... fenomenal

  • Wish he'd perform in Atlanta someday so I can see him without having to travel far.

  • He performed in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, Spain on 24th May 2010 was great!

  • Michel N°1

  • he is one of the best !!!! tiene merito pero yo todavia pienzo que Chick Corea es el Padre de todos ellos.

  • Hahaha, Lord Camilo's hands bounce just about as much as the hand percussionist's. So visually dynamic!

  • alguem tem show em dvd de michel?

  • As Fábricas de Piano precisam construir um Piano Especial de 08 Oitavas para Michel Camilo. Bravo Mano!

  • THE MASTER OF STRIDES. amazing.

  • hes a great pianist but actually i´d call him master of latin or something, he s not the master of stride piano..

  • es el mazter de los mazter

    es un genio en el arte de la musica

    El mejor no hay duda

  • por algo es el mejor pianista del mundo en latin jazz, es inalcanzable!!, nadie jamás podrá igualrlo ni mucho menos superarlo

  • eso segun tú...

  • @elpianista11 concordamos en que actualmente es el mejor!!! lo conoci en persona cuando el vivia aqui en republica dominicana era mi vecino... mis primeras clases las tome con el... pero no te apoyo al decir que nadie podra superarlo, la verdad hasta donde tengo entendido nadie conoce el futuro, y cualquier cosa es posible.

  • Una esecuzione stupefacente. Ascoltate gente...ascoltate. Grande Michel

  • his left hand it's awesome !!!!! and obviously both but... check out at his montuno ......

  • 5 Latin Stars!!

    Your Invited to check out my melodica performance.

  • Ah, he is playing on a Bosendorfer. Good choice, good choice.

  • el de la conga esta perdiooooo

  • Erikisimo is right: that's exactly what Camilo is doing in his left hand.

    If you want to feel the tension of the tumbado against the beat, concentrate on the RIGHT hand, where Camilo nearly always plays on the first beat every two bars, just as the "clave" indicates. This becomes more obvious at 1:51 and 2:36, where he's actually playing montunos.

    Once you can hear the rhythmic tension between both hands, this kind of music will open up for you.

  • He is a natural.

  • la mezcla perfecta entre el gusto y la técnica. Prodigio.

  • Justo

  • he plays the piano like he has 4 hands!!! that's incredible!!!

  • either 4 hands or two separate piano players all together

  • Esta pasado de verga la neta, un doctor de la musica.

  • I saw him in Blue Note Tokyo in April. Man... it was beastly

  • he is the men....amaizing

  • this guy is awesome... there are not to many pianist that can play like that...

  • why does this seem sped up?...it just looks like it...but really good gotta check him out

  • Comment removed

  • Michel Camilo will be performing at the Blue Note in New York from April 21 thru April 26, 2009.

  • DUDE I'm going to be in new york! Man I'm definitely checking the gig out yo. Thanks for the info!!!

  • @Redondomusic He will be performing once again on April 23rd 2010 at the Blue Note in New York

  • Es el mejor pianista que existe en este mundo. Vaya maestro !!!!!!!! Vaya fiera !!!!!!!! po po po ...

  • genious

  • its like theres two pianists.

  • his stride piano is amazing... he plays the chord on the first beat then the bass note... i've been playing jazz piano for over 20yrs and cant work how he does it and how it works... but it does

  • lead note - bass note - chord.

    i don't understand how u figure that he plays the chord on the first beat ? He doesnt.

    It's an awfully hard technique but amazing result - he masters it brilliantly

  • no, ur wrong, even if you cant hear the chord on the first beat from :50 onwards you can see the position of the left hand... he does play the chord on the first beat.... in fact, lookin again at his left hand ur wrong again, its harmony, fifth, root - with the root falling on the second beat of the bar

  • nah, still don't agree - remember the picture is delayed.

    find the beat and u'll hear it, no theoretic explanations needed - and furthermore, it wouldn't make much sense playing chord and then bass note right after - especially not in a bossa !

  • i cant think of many styles when playing the chord then the bass note would be standard, doesnt make it wrong tho. you're also wrong about the style, it may be called blue bossa but this is no bossa style - far from it - its more of a conga style. the percussionist is not playing a bossa pattern and the bass lacks the root and fifth on the 1st and 3rd beat

  • bleh, thats true - it's usually played as a bossa tho, i was sleeping when i wrote the comment ;D i dont understand what u mean about the bass lackin stuff.. (:

  • the bass isnt lackin at all, just what i meant was if it were a bossa the tempo would probably be a lot slower with the left hand playing root on the 1st and fifth on the 3rd beat.... you might be right about the stride playing tho, its difficult because the vid is slightly out of sync with the music, i think - like you say - the bass note is played on the 1st beat but played an octave higher, after the chord, the hand then drops the octave to play the fifth

  • bleh, still disagree - imo its easy to hear, that lead note (5th or 4th or an actual lead note), at one, bass note at 1½ and chord at 4.

    But we're never gonna agree anyway (: So lets end it here ! :p

  • gret convosation guys.... had me on the edge of my seat, really enjoyed reding it.....

    id love to see you two play together i recon speak would fly ( in a good way)

  • I can put this conversation to a LEGITIMATE end. its in 2/2. But lets just agree on 4/4 for ease of explanation. the standard afro-cuban stride (which of course he is playing) is MEASURE 1: Beat 1: Bass Root Beat 2: chord (usually 4 note close jazz voicings) Beat 3: Dominant of the Root Beat 4: Root MEASURE 2: & of 1: Chord & of 2: Dominant (dotted quarter) Beat 4: Root so basically: 1, 2, 3, 4 [] _ &, _ &~3, 4
  • The bass is playing Tumbao - It is a leading pattern wherein the the 5 of the next chord is played on the 2& and the root of the next chord is played on 4.

    The bass part is always looking to the next measure.

  • Michel Camilo will be performing at the Blue Note in New York from April 21 thru April 26, 2009.

  • Virtuoso! Camilo is in his own class! He's great!

  • Muito bom!

  • Michel Camilo's left hand is one of the most dexterous I have seen in any pianist. His ability to jump up and back down is beyond belief. Besides, his coordinationg and independence of the right hand makes you think he has two brains: one for each hand...

  • El master del Latin Jazz!!!!!

  • los wns felicez weno qien no lo estaria si tocara asi xd

  • I don't have the words! Just great!

  • violento
