Wooow :O First time I've seen one of my absolute biggest piano players write something on Ytube :)
You are one of my biggest influences when it comes to the piano and it is not easy to describe how much your work inspiers me when I play! I love all your work! Keep the good work up!
truly amazing. i agree, a CD should be made of pure improv. i show your music off to my friends and theyre amazed at notes on a dream, just imagine their faces when i tell them its improv XD
Should you make a record out of these improv bits, I would buy enough copies to build a recliner out of the CD-cases. Then I would lounge on your music while listening to it.
hey jordan i had asked you at a meet nd greet if you could play "space dye vest" you replied "its not on the set list" do you think you could post a video on you playing it for us? love this improve btw
I'd love to hear Jordan playing some Vangelis stuff. Vangelis has made the most beautiful pieces of music and Jordan's magic touch and improvisation would fit to them perfectly. Twenty Eighth Parallel played by Wizard would be divine!
First of all I would like to thank you for uploading these videos. But most of all I would like to thank you because of the magic that you create. Your passion and pure talent took me back to music, and this gift will carry me through the hardest times. So... Thank You!
i like so much every single one of your styles, doesnt matter if u are playing with ur crazy Iphone apps.. or just playing the piano.. i just admire U .. greetings from Colombia.. hope you guys (DT) come back soon.!
that hand motion at the beginning is him thinking. hmm, all the options i have on this piano...88 keys, a nearly infinte number of combinations...what to do...and in a split second comes up with this. genius
That's actually untrue. It would be more accurate to accommodate that number due to 10 fingers and the reach of your hands since you can't play 88 keys at the same time. Anyway, the point is Jordan is a fucking legend.
That´s a really, really nice improv... welcome to the calm, relaxed and always virtuoso side of Rudess.
