The Dave Brubeck Quartet - Jazz Casual - Part 2

[a280zxxguy]

This is in 6, Not 5..

[jpschubbs]

I can hear the difference, but I couldn't explain it to save my life.

[oscarturanga]

What is 5/4? I don't get it.

[Hikowas]

@oscarturanga 5 beats per measure, each quarter note gets 1 beat.

[dcracker2]

I tried to count. Not successful.

WOW! This stuff is unreal. I'm a rock bassist convert who's fairly new to jazz, and trying to wrap my head around the rhythms in "Raggy Waltz" blew my mind. I decided to just forget about understanding right now and just enjoy. ;)

You can really hear the rag vs waltz from 6:00- 6:30.

[sjkdec18]

@janken919 The timing changes from rag time (2/4) to waltz (3/4). It also sounds like some Paul's solos are in 4/4. Just listen to the drummer!

SO AWESOME

[carcassette]

Lovely stuff- I don't normally like alto sax but Paul Desmond can make that thing sing!

[Bluesmen88]

Awesome, thanks for posting. Dave said it best when he said that in order to Jazz to evolve, time signatures must be challenged and experimented with.

[Warioda]

I bow to the vid and to you!

[milkear]

he's out of breath after the performance.

fantastic!

[Etcher]

This is gold.
