  • I'm a jazz pianist myself but this is so cool!

  • It's the evenness of tone that's amazing to me-- how each tone matches the others with such clarity. This is something that good woodwind players spend a lifetime trying to do. Michelangeli was a strange, impassioned genius. No wonder that most pianos he found while on tour were not up to his excruciating standard. Could this be one of the reasons he cancelled appearances so often?

  • @DafniElissa If I may make a suggestion then:

    I made my "transfer" from classical to jazz through Nina Simone's love me or leave me.Jazz is something we all should embrace. It is awesome because of its variety.

  • @MrZekervan perhaps I'm a bit too conditioned by my personal hate for jazz! :)

  • @DafniElissa Jazz is a state of mind. It is incomparible. If you want to call this jazz, if it's in your state of mind to call it jazz, it is.

    + it was composed in the ragtime-era (around 1909). One could call it jazz.

  • Debussy is NOT jazz, guys.

  • close your eyes and imagine this as multiple pianists on multiple pianos... the fluidity of all the voices is just amazing. I feel dirty for not having heard of this guy during my playing years, but he gives every pianist something to look up to.

  • He knows exactly what he is doing.

  • @thepingsound What do you mean 'but?' This IS jazz.

  • Wow.... some of the sounds he makes on that piano sound impossible for a piano.... I don't know how he does it. He's a master all right, and not just a master, but A Master.

  • Amazing voicing and pedaling. I've learnt this piece before, but this video really makes me rethink how some of the lines should be played...time to learn it a second time!

  • waw!
