étonnant ce tapis sur le piano ! Quelqu'un serait-il pourquoi ?

pour amortir le bruit dans la chambre

God, jazz purists sicken me. This is fantastic.

I would prefer a thousand people with Vijay Iyer's unique sense of musicality than a thousand Bud Powell clones. Some people choose to root themselves in the lineage of the piano (like Mulgrew Miller or Bill Charlap) and some, like Iyer, have chosen to divert from linear history and draw from all historical influences simultaneously.

sounds dope

@JEdgarGroover So well stated---I prefer insights like yours to those of xGuttera Loungex "Jazz purists sicken me". Your statement is much more informative and positive.

the velocity, the fury. keep an open mind, this is fantastic stuff.

That was amazing

I love Paul Desmond and Joe Pass and The Poll Winners...and I think that this is fantastic. I celebrate the past and embrace the forward movement of music. Iyer is one of the individuals who is moving jazz forward. Hey, when Charlie Parker started out people said he wasn't playing "real" jazz. You always know the pioneers from the arrows in their backs.

To the jazz "purists": How many times do you really need to hear "All the Things You Are"? Thank goodness there are people doing new things in music.

@isaacstarling agree.

@Djangoblackbird Then I'm one example. I'm a huge fan of Chick Corea and Herbie Hancock (even some people told me that my playing was so Chick-ish), then I know Bill Evans, then I know Vijay Iyer when he was invited to one of Chick Corea's concert, and from a list of 100 most influential pianist. All of them play music. That's why I like them.
