no one would deny your improvisational skills, and your precision is pretty much unparalleled. I do have a serious question though, since you commented that you just played whatever came into your head, do you feel you've reached a level musical where you truly CAN play whatever comes into your head (realistically of course)? As an aspiring musician and pianist specifically, one of my long-term goals is to reach the level where I can think it, and my fingers will create the sound for me.
Jordan, do you have any sonatas or concertos or general solo piano pieces written? This level of music idea and composition cannot be forgotten with time....
Good, but I'd love to see something slower and more "held back" from you. Don't get me wrong, I love the technical playing, but not every piece needs it, you know? Some of the parts in here were just beautiful, and others were... well, noisy. Always more to learn though. =)
I send all my love In the air of dawn Watching the sky I let all my mind to fly The space disappears Open myself to me The probably wish I want to find In the air of the dawn I listen JR Always love when he plays)) JR My greetings!
Thank you Jordan for all of the improv you do! I cannot name one musician that gives us new and incredible music almost every day of our lives. Keep jammin' on :]
This is a true story: Last night I had a dream that my dog died, we buried her, and then I went to sleep (in the dream). When I woke up in real life, I was sad because I thought my dog actually died. I watched this video, and started to cry. Then at 2:05 I heard barking. I looked out the window and saw my dog! happy day :)
Jordan, when you come to Guadalajara, Mexico, on December 9th, will you play Outcry? That song is just crazy inspiring to me. Thanks. And, if possible, make sure John throws some picks at the third row :-P...Kiddiiing...
@Freezaen Want to experience Another Day with the Trial of Tears One Last Time as you fill your Hollow Years and step outside your seemingly Lost Not Forgotten soul and Solitary Shell while you experience These Walls in your own rendition of a Glass Prison, The Root of All Evil, Wither and collapse? Your Shattered Fortress would simply become A Nightmare to Remember as Jordan, in his State of Grace, begins the ambient and mesmerizing intro to Octavarium.
