oh my god, can't you just let us listen to this beautiful piece of music without talking only about technique!?! AND without stopping the video so brutally just to tell us what kind of technique he is using. I'll tell you which is his technique: he just does what he wants and likes, and he does it beautifully without need to think about it

A wonderful pianist, I saw him live in Seatle in 1990, just by chance: I came out of the cinema, walked into a wine bar.....and there he was...., I was amazed by his playing. .... Today I have 29 of his records in my collection. My prefeered one probably being "Darn that dream", where he plays with his father Antoine at the guitar and his brother Louis at the double bass. Superb!!.

@Uomodelgiapp0ne It's like when you're in your car and your favorite solo is coming up so you crank it up. Just then your friend starts blurting out some stupid story about the shit his dog took that morning.

correction. whole solo.
ya, the Steve Gadd thing is too true...only Mike Brecker & Grover were as great foils as Michel for Steve!

@ElliotTheMoose4
Yes it's very difficult
I checked outBill Evans and he does it sometimes
but only a second and half
One has then to concentrate on the right hand again
and for avoiding going wrong there , one has to end that 'shit' at the left !
Do you play ?

@ankhaton I do and I was doing homework while listening and I realised "oh my gosh" this feel takes a lot more skill to accomplish than I first thought :)

@ElliotTheMoose4 - Yeh, do it for a minute and the brain explodes :):)
But it's worth the effect
Yet one does it you'r much less in the need of a bassist & drummer
If you want I make a kind of basic excercise
just with two fingers
next starting doing a children song or so with the RH
Although : I did many songs where I tried
they have TRIOLS or TRIPLET in the title
Good luck - it's worth

I agree with your estimate of the talent involved in the sequence described....but if you listen to the whole sole from the point isolated, you must realize that the structure has been laid down by the late and lamented Oscar, who was not ascribed the pure genius that was his due - simply because he was too whole -some -for some - who confused comfort in one's skin with not having chops AND credibility. BIG mistake.
Michel played larger than life - something both men had in common.

@BelSuave
yes in a way - - Oscar was so perfect that there was less strai - strenght
With Michel you see that he is really baking the croissant sur place
Making the cookies on the spot
