Oh, stop you, genius and famous guitarists! For common people this intro was a bit too incomprehensible. so i could only agree with a good half of your statement. to be precisely, only about 5 minutes should be sculptured in rushmore.
@@ivanmoskvin7638 to be fair I think a vast majority of Julian lage listeners are not musically "common people"... but I did get the tongue and cheek 😉
Was there with my wife as well. Julian and the band were so damn good. And that venue! Got tickets late, so we were in the very back, but it didn't matter. It still sounded like we were wearing headphones, and could hear every detail.
what I LOVE about Julian's playing is that he is willing and able to go to musical places no one else would think of. In all honesty, for me, there are times I don't always love where he lands ( admittedly, a rare occasion) but HE is willing to try it and his technique (don't even get me started!) is such that he can go wherever he wants - whenever he wants! Thank you Julian - it ia alqays a joy to hear you play!
@@utube9000 no joke. I’ve been playing for 15 years and I feel like a kid messing with pentatonics compared to him. I’ve done some transcriptions of his music and it’s just so next level. Maybe if I had 3 lifetimes.
He is simply one of the greatest guitarists ever. I have never seen anyone improvise with such freedom. Beyond technique: music in free flow. Thank you Julian!
This sets it once for all: a musician plays to enjoy himself not for the public, an entarteiner does the opposite. Grea musicians plays for the joy of th emusic, they're "in the music"
Great stuff. I'm a big fan of the Benny Goodman Sextet recordings featuring Charlie Christian, and Julian really does it well here with this trio. I'm glad instruments like this are being played, and not locked in a glass case. These instruments need to be heard, not looked at.
Superb. Thank you. Truly. My dad played horns, particularly clarinet for all of his life. He was a Benny Goodman fanatic. When I rebelled to wannabe EVH, he was patient. When I grew up and returned, he gave me Charlie Christian and Rose Room to practice. We jammed it and that's the only recording I have playing with my pops. Thanks for bringing me back!
And in spite of his great skill and technical prowess in music, he is still a humble and kind individual. Julian is a great musician and an even greater human being!
That was just incredible, the clarity of Julian's melodic expression, the confidence in direction, the dynamics and the sheer exuberance shown, he's just on another level.
Charlie Christian had a tragically short life and he lived in a time where recording music was really in it’s infancy. Thanks to Julian Lage and others, his music will be played forever. This clip is beautifully done. What a treat!
My gosh. Julian is maybe the only guitar player that has the dynamics equivalent of an expert classical pianist. What a cool experience to be able to play that guitar.
Absolutely Beautiful virtuoso playing. Flawless and utterly original. I’m always amazed at the complete connection with his instrument he has..whatever the context.
Aside from the wonderful music he makes, I love to watch Mr. Lage play- he seems to be enjoying it tremendously. Occasionally he smiles as if he's telling a very sly joke and he's sure that we get it without explanation - I hope we do. Tremendous in every sense.
I really haven’t listened to Julian Lage, other than a few really experimental pieces. I’ve been missing something. Incredible playing. He obviously loves his work:)
I just can't get my head around it. He's our Django, our Hendrix, our McLaughlin. The ideas just fall out of him. I can't wait to hear what he does next!
This is 8 minutes and 23 seconds of the finest guitar playing I've ever heard/seen. Flawless.
before i read the comments i was thinking the same thing!! 100!!
Completely agree!

It's truly stunning. His facility is breathtaking.

My Wife and I were fortunate enough to be in the audience for this performance.... Yes, it was a beyond amazing evening!
I'm jealous!
We saw him in Pittsburgh, right before covid, small club. 3 piece band, blazing good.
Was there with my wife as well. Julian and the band were so damn good. And that venue! Got tickets late, so we were in the very back, but it didn't matter. It still sounded like we were wearing headphones, and could hear every detail.
Django would have liked this guitar instead of the Gibson they gave him back in those days !

Thank you Julian - it ia alqays a joy to hear you play!
1:47 when he turns the guitar into a frightening oncoming locomotive. Spectacular. Hats off to the rhythm section
I love seeing how happy he always is when he’s playing
I'd always look happy if I could play like that too!
I second that idea.

So grateful to the people who preserved this historic instrument. And also to whoever had the brilliant idea to arrange for Julian to perform on it!
Only actual player to do any justice other than Frisell
Wish he would have played through a cranked Gibson amp like Charlie. Smoking tubes.
I was in the audience at the Musical Instruments Museum.....Everyone should see this man play....He's something special.....
Yes the technique is mind-blowing, but the man has exquisite taste. Every aesthetic choice he makes is pure perfection. What a master.
Nobody embodies “the sound of surprise” like julian lage. Staggeringly great. Charlie’s rolling over in his grave…to hear better.
Charlie Christian must be proud to have so much talent playing his guitar. Last time I saw someone playing this relic was George Benson...
Very nice to hear Julian playing a big box archtop again, let alone Charlie’s. Beautiful.
This sets it once for all: a musician plays to enjoy himself not for the public, an entarteiner does the opposite. Grea musicians plays for the joy of th emusic, they're "in the music"
absolutely insane. Julian is a genius
We wants it. Give us our precious.
Thank you. This makes life worth living.
I love taking a break from learning my tunes to watch a living master. It's so joyful!
He’s in love with the guitar. That’s what I hear. Every note, chord, and sound he gets out of it.
Pure love!

This is just wonderful.
Two (or three!) icons collide.
I love seeing the joy that Julian has when he plays.
Julian is the most interesting improviser on guitar I’ve ever seen. The dynamics are incredible. So much feeling.
That was just incredible, the clarity of Julian's melodic expression, the confidence in direction, the dynamics and the sheer exuberance shown, he's just on another level.

it's not even 8 in the morning an you made me smile and swing, thank you Julian, and good morning from Zanzibar
so cool man. i spent some of my childhood there
My gosh. Julian is maybe the only guitar player that has the dynamics equivalent of an expert classical pianist. What a cool experience to be able to play that guitar.
I love jazz trios with guitar/bass/drum
Absolutely Beautiful virtuoso playing. Flawless and utterly original. I’m always amazed at the complete connection with his instrument he has..whatever the context.
So good. This is obscene. I was going to rave about his descending lines and have to call myself a fool. ALL of his lines are amazing:)
What an honor! So glad Julian had this opportunity!
Incredible to see and hear that instrument! Julian is a fine choice for the honor of playing it :)
This is MASSIVE! Got that slightly overdriven aspect of Christian’s tone down EXACT! WOW!!! 🎉
I was at this show and made a review of it on my channel.
That guitar waited a long time to get to sing it again!
Blessed by this!
Brilliant guitarist. I am sceptical about the technical impact of the guitar. Magic here.
Great museum! Several older Gibson ES 125s, amps, etc. Worth the trip for music buffs!
Love that Julian is carrying on this tradition, Charlie would have loved this!
literally unbelievable
Outstanding. Power trio superb.
I know I am going to like it!!!
We all rarely watch any entire video on yt... I did here and loved it !
thank you julian, dave and scott. can't wait to see you in atlanta
Wow! The Intro was from another planet. Love this Trio👍 Charlie’s smilin down 🇺🇸
What a weirdo! Loved it! Drums and bass all worked together quite lovely.
How blessed are we to hear/witness this?
Thank you 😎
Wow! The wonders never cease with this man. Scott and Dave were sublime!
Simply incredible.
What an incredible performance.
hints of 'you and the night and the music' on the first bridge, haha. wonderful.
this man has a natural gift!!
...+ untold thousands of hours woodshedding.
Very inspiring! We've visited this museum and it is special. They've several older Gibson ES models. Quite a collection.
Wow, that fired me up and improved my mood. And shout out to Dave King! You got the gig!
Such an airy and full sounding guitar in a master’s hands. Amazing!
I love that pick + fingers work
Aside from the wonderful music he makes, I love to watch Mr. Lage play- he seems to be enjoying it tremendously. Occasionally he smiles as if he's telling a very sly joke and he's sure that we get it without explanation - I hope we do. Tremendous in every sense.
Wow! That guitar! Those guitar players (Julian and Charlie!!
Beautiful.
I love the creativity and freedom of the opening
That tone is amazing
I really haven’t listened to Julian Lage, other than a few really experimental pieces. I’ve been missing something. Incredible playing. He obviously loves his work:)
Increíble el manejo de la Textura que tiene Julian en la Guitarra cada día esta un paso más adelante ! Niceeee
I love the joy he has in playing guitar
He's fucking insane; his playing and online workshops have revolutionized my approach. God I love Julian!!
At first I didn't recognize the tune... After the first minutes the groove started to flow... Impressive.
Incredible
Fantastic and the lighting/stage gorgeous as usual. Also, I've been practising and with a bit more work might produce a passable 2:25
Truly the most impressive parttt
Me emocioné mucho al ver este video. Julian Lage que gran guitarrista! qué ganas de poder verlo en vivo. gracias por este video que me hizo muy feliz
Incredible! Just Incredible!! Musicality beyond belief.
Artist

Beeeeautiful playing here. Thanks for sharing.!
one of the most special guitar performances i have ever seen, genius.
Lord-y good googly that's good !Don't miss the upright bass solo @6:35 !
WOW times 3 !!! ;-) Saw this trio 2 weeks ago in Aachen Germany (Jorge R. on bass) Phenomenal!!!
5:12 *chefs kiss*
Beautiful music; sounds gorgeous!
Charlie is smiling from heaven for sure.😊
yep!!!! 💯💯💯💯
such a great solo improv, there!
Nice!!! Amazing sounds!!! 👍🔥🎸😎
gibson ES 250 with famous C.C pick up . First electri guitar in the 1940's . Unmatched and
successful tool for genius .
I was at this show. It was brilliant!
Just masterful. Thanks for you and your trio. Really. Just thank you. ❤️
I think hes using a mid sixties Fender Vibroverb amp with the 15" JBL
speaker? Every guitar sounds great thru those.
SRV liked using them.
I just can't get my head around it. He's our Django, our Hendrix, our McLaughlin. The ideas just fall out of him. I can't wait to hear what he does next!
There's talent and whatever Julian does!!!next level 👍🏾✌🏽
Absolute brilliance!
Man, what an amazing experience, as always awesome. Masters!!
