NYU Steinhardt Jazz Interview Series at SubCulture in New York. Dr. David Schroeder interviews legendary jazz saxophonist, composer, and NYU faculty member Mark Turner.
Love this guy and his playing. Just amazing. Hung out with him in London about 15 years ago. Very much into meditation and self-improvement even then. I can't say enough about his approach to life, music and the horn. One of the greats of all time.
Interesting interview. I've met Mark a few times at a friends house, but naturally the conversation isn't/wasn't about practicing. However, I'd loved to have asked about transcription. I've transcribed quite a bit and what I notice each time (in a way), is that everything they actually play, you can, and probably do play already. This suggests it's not what you play, but how you play it - timing, and placement of ideas.
Mark sounds sincere and honest. He comes across as intellectual and professorial in his demeanor and responses; that which is, of course, a very good thing. I have got to revisit his music - the earlier years.
Inspirational. But at the same time horribly frustsrating because of the fact that he really just wrote down Coltrane's solo by only with his ears. Not everyone can do that lo. Good interview though.
His record "Dharma Days" really is a milestone in my musical journey.
Respect 😁👍🌞

I always get such a serious vibe from Mark's music, so it's great to find out he likes a good laugh. Really informative. Thanks NYU !!
Finally a Mark Turner interview!!! :D thanks so much!
"I just listened to it and wrote it down"...

agreed, i have often been surprised to find that a lot of my favorite solos are just extremely clever combinations of mostly simple components.
Mark is a great player. Always creative. Glad to see this interview!

“I figure I’m going to do what I need to do to make music satisfying “
All sax teachers: keep your fingers on the pearls at all times!
Mark Turner: ...nah
Adam Savage on tha mic
"...how he processes information" @18:11 "...rational" @18:42. This explains everything... :)

If you can play the horn in your head it's actually not difficult to find the notes just something you're listening to

GRADEVOLMENTE MEDIOCRE.
cosa intendi scusa?
legendary ? Hyper boring, no doubt !
hope that was a joke
@@marselmusic not a joke. Most overrated sax in the world with shepp et david murray.
__ Man are you kidding? He's the most innovative sax player of the 90s, he's right up with Marsh & Coltrane
@@mrgabifour4 Man are you kidding? He's the worst and less innovative sax player of the 90s, he's never right up with Marsh & Coltrane
@@rinahall Whatever man, to each his own
