Loved this performance....first impressions are precision timing and professional use of the jazz vocabulary....hat's off guys

[willon50]

RESPUESTA a casi todas las preguntas, jeje…

BATERISTA: Raul Serrano, de la ciudad de Mexico. Trabaja en el ITESM CEM, tristemente no como profesor de música :-( sino en el área administrativa. Es un buenazo!

Bajista: Ricaro Jiménez, también de la ciudad de Mexico. Trabajo en el ITESM también y es director de asuntos estudiantiles y profesor de armonía y bajo.

PIANISTA: no lo conozco, pero Raul me comentó que es de Sonora. Anhelo una clínica de improvisación con el @soruyoavila

[willon50]

THE ANSWER for almost all the questions, haha...

DRUMMER: Raul Serrano. Mexico City, works for ITESM CEM. It’s sad, but he doesn’t work as a musician or music professor, he is at administrative area.

BASS: Ricardo Jimenez. He lives in Mexico City and works also for ITESM CEM. He is the Dean of Students Affairs, and also the bass professor.

PIANIST: don’t know :-(. I’m a pianist too, and played with Raul, but would like to take some lessons with this pianist. He is awesome.

[mizzieblue]

[kvnlmn]

@ppo055 lol, it was around 0:45

[Beaverr14]

@ppo055 i heard it too. about :45-:50.



[LongLiveRock105]

@ppo055 What Beaverr14 said. Camilo does it in their studio version of this too.

[lobstertexas]

of all the versions of St Thomas I have collected ;) this is by far the best. I played this on tenor pan along with Mr. Camilo's track at my wedding.. good times.

TERRIFIC! What a wonderful rendition. I'm starting to play this piece at school as part of our latin unit :)

[srsplanet]

[dandruf]

el pianista es michel camilo

[mfowler5]

this is personally my favorite song for jazz i would have probably changed the drum beat a lil but these guys are amazing i would have a different beat but i would have never thought of this

[tkann1]

I really like the drum beat. This is how I know and love this song.

[Enjen81]

Pshhhh!!! Woah, words cannot describe with justice how much I love the way they played that :)

[stefan7331]

awesome!

[chriscorso1]

thruth in music says...I guess!

[akindofblue]

great performance, exceptionally tight. will definitely seek out some discs having seen this.

[DrummerInExile]

nice bit of miles' straight no chaser there : )

[kfdisawesome]

omg...

[IndioFreak]

I usually tell bad Camilo copies in the first 15 seconds; YT has plenty of them and their quality is equally sparse. But, in the understanding that playing along a Camilo recording is humanly IMPOSSIBLE, yours is an outstanding performance. Congrats.

[cesarodrigues1]

Jeepers...

That drummer must have a big car. And that piano player must have a lot of time on his...

[maranomarcelo]

Muy bien nada de envidiar a Michel camilo....Buen sound....le felicitito.....el eres buenisimo pianista......claro estilo de michel....pero no es facillllllllllllll ...excelente hermano

[Jurij88]

The piano really rocks especially in the beginning. I think what Rollins had actually on his mind when he composed this piece was the famous carribean instrument that we call MARIMBA!!! It's bright and easy!

[TorgeirFausken]

Exept for the marimba beeing a South African instrument, i completely agree with you!! =D

[Jurij88]

Ohh, didn't know that one...thanks!

[guitarslim56]

@TorgeirFausken, Marimba is fro South America, not South Africa.

[jPapa2008]

@guitarslim56 From Africa. It end up in South America because of the slaves.

[angelhcaro]

buen gusto sin excesos y delicadeza. m uy bien

[giacomo978]

Me encantó. ¡Sigan así!

Muchos exitos.

Saludos desde Lima, Perú.

[kooljsl]

jazz players borrow licks all the time during concerts

[pacoolea70]

Exactly, i know this guy and he is still a student of jazz and he has stated in a comment below (in Spanish)that he is first copying the solos in order to learn how chords and scales relate to one another so that he learns the language and hopefully be able to create his own solos some time ahead...as for the meantime great execution!!

[bobilleg74]

That's the best way to do it. It's like learning any language. You have to mimick first and then you understand. I really enjoyed this.

[sirskatealot066]

yeah man. the trick to becoming a great musician is emulating the styles of other great musicians, and using them to develop and create your own style. in doing that you will also build up chops on your instrument. for example, i may not be able to do the buddy rich one handed drum roll traditional grip, but working on it and learning has sure helped me with some sick ghost note patterns!

[pacoolea70]

He still is a student of jazz, he is learning the language, sometime ahead he will incorporate his own parts...he has stated it "...first copying in order to learn and then create something of its own."

[pacoolea70]

The concert is a Michel Camilo Camilo tribute, but as he states below, he is copying his stuff in order to learn the language of jazz and then create his own parts...there is nothing wrong with that.

[willon50]

Don Rul, muy bien... te risfas bro... un abrazo, willy

[pacoolea70]

The concert is a Michel Camilo Camilo tribute, but as he states below, he is copying his stuff in order to learn the language of jazz and then create his own parts...there is nothing wrong with that.

[epeoples]

As much as I enjoyed this great reproduction of Michel Camilo's piano part as well as the bassist, the drummer stole the show for me! Great stuff!

[Eyemayorist]

Muy bien... vakano!!! Bien reproducido, hermanazo...

[anievesdiaz]

Vaya amigo, ya dominas el estilo de Michel Camilo, tremendo por eso !!! Ahora tienes que crear algo tuyo y desarroyar tu propia personalidad. Palante

[soruyoavila]

Asi es, es la idea, primero copiar para aprender, y poder despues crear lo propio.

Gracias por tu comentario!

[erikimba]

@soruyoavila no creo que sea precisamente copiar sino mas bien interpretar, aprender, emular, no existe copia alguna es cuestion de naturaleza ni los gemelos son identicos, tienes influencia de Camilo sin duda, suenas parecido pero nunca igual, eso es bueno, me suena a ti, tocas muy bien hermano, sigue asi.

[soruyoavila]

@erikimba Muchas gracias por tus comentarios, te lo agradezco mucho.

[oldwarcraftgamer]

@erikimba pero a que te refieres con interpretar? :O.. o sea intentar encontrar razones por que algo suena como suena? :S :D

perdon q aun no estoy en un nivel muy avanzado =)

[erikimba]

@oldwarcraftgamer tu diste la respuesta hermano, no ver la piel sino la raiz, ademas llevarlo si puedes a otro nivel con tu estilo, imagina quieres pintar un cuadro de salvador dali, lo haces al punto de que parece el original, que sentido tendria? eres salvador dali? NO. eres mejor o peor? NO. eres unico y eres bueno? SI. te recomiendo esto busca piezas que te gusten que importa si no las tocas completas por ahora, busca partes que te gusten haz/deshaz, tranformalas ponle un PLUS/ tu estilo.

[mezzocollo]

ah, he's not michel camilo in this video. it's a tribute

[mezzocollo]

he is really good as a jazz piano player

but not the best. have you ever heard keith jarrett?

[caspar1]

I think Art Tatum is better than Keith Jarrett.

[Guirebo]

Hola , soy Gj musico de alemania ...que buena interpretacion, ya habia escuchado el disco por cortesia de Armando avila....ahora con los videos esta aun mejor!..conosco la musica de camilo.....adelante...muy bueno..saludos de hamburg

[loranwitteveen]
