  • Grande cuore , Grande Musica !!

  • truely amazing. piano sometimes doesn't sound quite in tune, but he plays well regardless

  • HE PLAYS THIS LIKE HE IS SINGING THE WORDS! I love his work. Hersch has produced a beautiful body of work over the years. He certainly justifies the space he occupies. Long life Fred!!!

  • Half a dozen changes brought tears to my eyes-just sublime.

  • simplemente...excelente !!!!!!

  • He's been dealing with a lot of shit, aids related lately. A man this talented doesn't need to step out before he has given us everything he's got. That wouldn't be fucking unfair. Get better you son of a bitch!

  • what style of music/jazz is this?

  • @THeEraSerr It's mostly called impressionistic jazz or jazz influenced by impressionism. Personally, I just don't care what people call his way of playing - it's in a world of its own. I've heard him live in Vienna with Nico Gori, and it was a highly intense experience, very special.

  • I herd he has ades

  • @Elmer1470

  • Fred is going to be playing at my school on or around the 22nd of April with fellow students, pretty excited he's awesome!

  • @lydian7999 I'd love to know how it went...

  • Beautiful*

  • The world need this kind of music.

    Genius!

  • Passion flower, Freds tribute to Strayhorn is still one of my alltime favorite recordings. This version of Cole Porters ingenious composition is sublime.

  • That felt like I just went 7 minutes without blinking or breathing. Absolutely stunning.

  • he's a genius

  • I read the NY Times article too and went to this video for a quick check. But I could not leave it. I was compelled to take a journey to my soul. Fred Hersch is definitely on my map of the inner self.

  • I read an article about Fred Hersch in the New York Times Magazine this morning (1.31.10) and although I've been a jazz fan for 50 years I hadn't heard of him. What a great find! Now I'm looking forward to a new player and his music! Wow!

  • Gorgeous.

  • so in love with this interpretation

  • i hear a lot of Kieth Jarrett in his touch....

  • I Found Fred Hersch , sometime ago , in a record with bill frisell, and it sounds great, then i started to learn more about Fred, and he is a great artist, and human being, that is more important,

  • Fred has the distinctive touch that describes his emotions, thoughts and ideas. The harmony is so deep, thick and expansive. He is he closest thing to the great Bill Evans but with his own stamp to the music.

  • I wonderful pianist that I have the utmost respect for as an artist as a man. He reflects a person with a big expansive soul that travels to magical places in the heart.

  • Universos,traslaciones,caidas,­oblicuo escuchar,espalda,manos abanicadas de los brazos,sala Casacuberta,por mares viajamos con mi amiga por ese ya inolvidable sábado 5 de diciembre en Buenos Aires.

    ¡¡Gracias Fred!!!!

  • Precioso. Un pianista absolutamente personal.

  • I was there too in the Village Vanguard. He was really amazing there...

  • So destinctive. You can tell it's Fred - and no one else. I love his rendition of "The Peacocks" which has a full 3 minute introduction. One of the greats, along with Dave Grusin and Pete Jolly.

  • poeta!!!!!

  • Saw him at the Village Vanguard recently, awesome.

  • Like Fred Hersch! not like Keith Jarrett
