Nice work Jeffrey. One correction - George Coleman is playing tenor sax on Maiden Voyage, not Wayne Shorter.
Oops, yes that is very true. Thanks for the correction! Thanks for checking out the video!
Nice video Jeffrey!
Pat on the back for getting corrected by Andy LaVerne! I made the same mistake in college and got into a heated argument with the professor, all good.
Rhythm is the FIRST detail that I noticed in your Keith Jarrett transcription--I think that you can copy all the scale choices and harmony and NOT sound anything like the musician you are studying. Rhythm is the fingerprint for 90% of our favorite musicians--how they fill up a measure of time, where they start and end phrases, how they use subdivision, where they accent, what they articulate, etc.
In terms of Keith Jarret's rhythmic conception--I think that those 9-tuplets and triplets are embedded in his dance throughout the tune. I don't think that he picks and chooses rhythms as isolated events. Rather, they all exist in a multilayer poly rhythmic soup that characterizes Keith Jarrett's unique dance. The rhythms float to the top, like veggies in a soup--but everything simmers in the same pot.
I got introduced to the rhythmic fingerprint through studying Mike Longo's materials--Dizzy Gillespie's last pianist. Just some thoughts, love your video!
Haha that's the great thing about the comment section.
And yeah I agree rhythm is king! I also highly doubt Keith Jarrett is thinking "oh I'm gonna play 9 tuplets now". I tend to think about it like an impressionistic oil painting, but I like the soup analogy too. And btw I think you'll like the next video I'm working on cause it's gonna be all about rhythm :)
Nice video!
Thanks Peter!
Nice video :) tnx!
Thank you!
Keith is as mean as a sharks teeth
Indeed. Sharper than a samurai sword
