I apparently just awoke from a coma. Seriously, I have missed so much. I guess I wasn't ready for such inspired genius. I am both humbled and elated at my discovery. Thx Kurt.
Also a little depressing 😕 ... How 🤔 ever far you are on the guitar 🎸. There is also so much more to learn ... It s an endless yourney. And my nature is I like to be able to finish 😌 something.
Attended a masterclass with this guy about 5 years ago when I was 19. Completely changed how and what I practiced and what I do as a guitar player and composer. He basically called everyone out for not knowing what exactly the major scale can do. He has a great ear and knows what’s he’s talking about but he always keeps it simple in the most complex way.
Guitar teacher here. You know this now already from experience but, so many people skirt the more involved major scale stuff thinking they know it all, but there's just so many ways to milk it you can never truly say you do. Barry Harris did the same, un-egoic verbal beatdown followed by demonstration of the difference between someone with true control. You hit the nail on the head with that last sentence, to kind of elaborate I think the route to that level requires a firm handle on fundamentals of permutation, from there you're making use of powers (the mathematical exponents kind) to compound your options, like a tree that grows from seed and bifurcates it's branches over time- If you know the major scale everywhere you can form any kind arrangement of chord and generate the rest of the chord scale by moving along the scale degrees. The part that takes the lions share of time is finding some way to manage all the branches and options you gather and put it to work making real music. That's a question I'd love to dig into Kurts mind on, but he'd probably just say it play it a bunch until you have one way to play it then keep playing it.
I saw him playing once with john scofield...I was blown away by them both. This guy has a perfect knoledge of his instrument, I can't even imagine the amount of hours he spent studying in his life...
I am a fan of Rosen winkel too, but after a solo of Scofield, I thnink it is difficult to not get pale after a few bars, dynamically and rythmically Rosen winkel being a genius still has got somthing to learn from Scofield, choise of note harmonic feel etc etc makes him already great player...
also listen to last tune of scofield-stern there stern trys to immitate scofield, it is realy strange to see him loose his style at that moment, I think Alan Holdsworth John Scofield and Alan Holdsworth are most renewers,
reminds me of the first time i watched jimmy page play guitar when i was super young... captivating... great reminder of why i started playing, thank you for the nostalgia kurt!
Thing is.... he ain#t doing much - he just being efficent and playing a song. No magic. Just conviction, love, and practice. End result: magic. Just play
I am consistently blown away or left speechless by Kurt. This is easily one of the most potent performances I've ever heard/seen. It's truly a rare delight when a musician has the right combination of heart, intellect, and transcendent technique like Kurt.
Highly technical stuff that only a handful of accomplished musicians can afford to experiment, and Kurt makes it sound so damn beautiful!! I like the Latin stuff he does with Caipi a lot, but also appreciate this type of inner space he creates with his music. Thanks for sharing this!
I never hear this fella 1 time before yesterday, i watch the way he patiently plays, smooth effortless beautiful guitar work, I knew I was going to emulate his patience, I had some weakness and pain big time in my fret hand so playing with the smooth, graceful finger work was perfect for bridging some major obstacles, instead of losing time being unable to play harder. faster. as I was doing at the time, I can rehab atleast my fret arm wrist shoulder, bicep, elbow.
Man, this pedal is almost another instrument in its own right. Even if I could play like Kurt (I can't), I still wouldn't be able to produce this sound... amazing!
Some of this comment section is just disgusting. This is expression that stretches tradition and honours it at the same time. If you want to hear “Stella” then listen to the fucking original. The harmonic and melodic information is there. If this is your reaction to this piece of art then stop calling yourself a jazz fan.
He's pretty active this month and next month though, touring Japan and China, to CA and on to Spain and Portugal. Often when I look he's often playing in some obscure club in Denmark or Holland haha and as you say often not that many appearances.
does anyone know of any other videos like this one? i want to hear more of this kind of playing - those chords at the start are so beautifully dissonant.
A genius. How he is not up there with Pat Metheny I do not know. I love Pat, but Kurt NEEDS to be recognized as an innovator, master, heart bender, soul reacher, and why not??????
Max L i guess it would be hell of a mindfuck since the pedal he's using just thickens up everything he plays. i agree it would be amazing tho, to have a transcription, but it wouldnt make any sens if not using the H.O.G. i do recognize some of the chord shape he plays, but its stricly from what i see. by ear, it's much more difficult.
***** grats if you can. i havent analyse anything yet. honnestly, id be surprised if it was all in one single key, for the first 10 minutes or so... yeah i guess that each passage has it's own key with some spicy stuff on top...
Juan2003gtr im a novice. ok haha. i guess its a matter of interpretation... ok here's an example. 3:03, G#7 and he's soloing on dominant mode - G# mixolydian 3:13, changes from G#7 to F#7 soloing on dominant mode - F#7 mixolydian. same key? i didnt know there were 2 different dominant chords in one single key. please man.. go ahead i'm all ears. oh and by the way, watch this, not bad for a novice right? /watch?v=f3RMv5bT6ws
Juan2003gtr You say melodic minor, if you heard a #4 and a b6 from 3:03 and 3:13 something's wrong. im arrogant?? so its not being arrogant to tell somebody he's a novice without actually knowing the person, as you expect me to agree... i have no problem being told im mistaken. the problem comes when im not being told why. i bet you'd feel the same way. at least do, and we'll spare each other some time. i'd like to hear you play buddy, have a good one.
Holy shiz............. I actually have never seen anyone play the guitar like that. I mean, it's kinda normal for me I guess since I focus on more of the traditional jazz. I'm learning about the modern ones now.
Probably won't be as good, but I think I finally found a use for that iStomp pedal I keep kicking around. Presently programmed for "Angel Choir." I think I can use it for something other than scaring the crap out of band mates, little dogs, and a housewife who thinks cooking involves voodoo and evil, rather than chemisty. 3:>

One of the funniest comments I've read in a long time..
This remains the best thing I’ve ever heard somebody do on guitar
I study everyday. He is who I want the Aliens to meet
Like Ed But opposite end of sound frequency CANDY

Kurt is THE jazz guitarist of the 21st century in my opinion
NewBeck
I find myself back at this video when I need some inspiration. Kurt is just... Incredibly inspiring.
Also a little depressing 😕 ...
How 🤔 ever far you are on the guitar 🎸.
There is also so much more to learn ...
It s an endless yourney.
And my nature is I like to be able to finish 😌 something.
i can tell he knows some chords.
+Klemes67 I think he played every chord that ever existed in that song.
+Klemes67 Nice one!
+Klemes67 hm. yea. I was just thinkin the same thing.
Did he play the C one?
I chuckled

Cool-----Only Kurt is capable of music like this----adventurous, brilliant, new and old.
Amazing! Definitely one of the most beautiful and modern sounding Stella by Starlight's I've ever heard.
An original and creative take on the tune - and solo guitar in general. Using effects and technology to a brilliant musical end.
I saw him playing once with john scofield...I was blown away by them both. This guy has a perfect knoledge of his instrument, I can't even imagine the amount of hours he spent studying in his life...
He dropped out of berklee after first two years. He then toured with Gary Burton, who at the time was the Dean of Berklee. Lol.

I think he has passed 😔 the 10.000 hours formula, don t u think 🤔?
En un reportaje contó que a las tres horas de práctica recién calentaba los dedos
Imaginate
One of the most beautiful thinga I have ever listened to...
just perfect.
If you get the opportunity to take his Masterclasses....do not hesitate! Life changing.
reminds me of the first time i watched jimmy page play guitar when i was super young... captivating... great reminder of why i started playing, thank you for the nostalgia kurt!
LOve all these wonderful colours... creative, inspirational... Love it.
The opening chords remind me of early Weather Report (Zawinul) soundscapes, but with a contemporary twist. Fascinating.
yesssss
I'm looking for the ukulele tab of this tune, thank you.
I had it but i learned it so quick and easy i got rid of the it.
You'll need a dozen ukuleles for all those polychords
I feel annihilated every time I see/hear him play. This guy's not human.
this probably is the best video on RUclips right now
Yeah That's it!
Thing is.... he ain#t doing much - he just being efficent and playing a song. No magic. Just conviction, love, and practice. End result: magic. Just play
Naaaaah.
Great 👍? Yes!
The best 👌 on RUclips? Naaaaah.
I dunno did you see that one cat video
anyone else getting chills from this?
what a beautiful sound this is.
love kurt.

Before he gets to stella he is playing chords influenced by one of his heros allan holdsworth. when he utilizes some sort of sustain effect. Love Kurt
The most wonderful guitar player ever…
Thank you, Kurt.
I feel like I'm floating in the vast emptiness of space.

Apart from the amazing talent--I get more convinced--D'angelico guitars have got a certain mojo.
I always rewatch this video and it's always a great experience since 2014!!!
Man, this pedal is almost another instrument in its own right. Even if I could play like Kurt (I can't), I still wouldn't be able to produce this sound... amazing!
So glad I stumbled on this video. One of the best Hog moments I've encountered. So inspiring. Thanks. 😎🤓
i come back to this over and over. wish i couldve been in this room. hope a very hq recording of this is released at some point in the future.

The first time i heard this, i was 17 and asked my manager if i could start working an extra day a week so i could get a H.O.G
The first time I heard this I asked for a HUG
And then your manager tell you " why you need to buy hog just go to a supermarket"
Did u bought it?
DUDE I finally bought a HOG and it's 90% because of this video. Been eyeing one since I learned they existed
Very impressive! A voice completely of his own. 🤗👍
Almost 30 years of working & still inspired and inspiring... I think he's a genius, like Scofield & Metheny
Absolutly incredible
Really an enormous guitar player.
I wish to see him in Barcelona soon.
one and only Kurt R.
This improv demonstrates that music goes much beyond scholar theory, scales N such
I love that sound m@n
I wish he had did more concerts. Its like every time I check there is only a small amount of concerts.
He's pretty active this month and next month though, touring Japan and China, to CA and on to Spain and Portugal. Often when I look he's often playing in some obscure club in Denmark or Holland haha and as you say often not that many appearances.
that was beautiful! nice job kurt!
These chords are like sudden bursts of contrasting immiscible colours
i still keep thinking about this
Very nice conclusion and solution!I like it !
Clearly, he has won Stella by Starlight.
Kurt is the best!!
He's crankin' on those chord changes.
nice rendition of a classic!
stunning!
It's tougher to play all chords without the resting through a linear solo. I just love it.

Incredible.
We can say that Kirt is not really human, godlike is the appropriate word to describe him
out of this world
reminds me of the old joke: Rock guitarrist plays 4 chord to 4 million people, jazz guitarrist plays 4 million chords to 4 people....
There's more than 4 people there. And he only has about 20 chords in here.

PLAIN GORGEOUS

Holdsworthian! Kurt is the master!
can someone do a transcription of the harmonies in like the first 6 minutes
Max L i guess it would be hell of a mindfuck since the pedal he's using just thickens up everything he plays. i agree it would be amazing tho, to have a transcription, but it wouldnt make any sens if not using the H.O.G. i do recognize some of the chord shape he plays, but its stricly from what i see. by ear, it's much more difficult.
***** grats if you can. i havent analyse anything yet. honnestly, id be surprised if it was all in one single key, for the first 10 minutes or so... yeah i guess that each passage has it's own key with some spicy stuff on top...
Juan2003gtr im a novice. ok haha. i guess its a matter of interpretation... ok here's an example.
3:03, G#7 and he's soloing on dominant mode - G# mixolydian
3:13, changes from G#7 to F#7 soloing on dominant mode - F#7 mixolydian.
same key? i didnt know there were 2 different dominant chords in one single key.
please man.. go ahead i'm all ears.
oh and by the way, watch this, not bad for a novice right? /watch?v=f3RMv5bT6ws
Juan2003gtr You say melodic minor, if you heard a #4 and a b6 from 3:03 and 3:13 something's wrong. im arrogant?? so its not being arrogant to tell somebody he's a novice without actually knowing the person, as you expect me to agree... i have no problem being told im mistaken. the problem comes when im not being told why. i bet you'd feel the same way. at least do, and we'll spare each other some time. i'd like to hear you play buddy, have a good one.

aaaargh this is so bíutiful it hurts
Holy shiz............. I actually have never seen anyone play the guitar like that. I mean, it's kinda normal for me I guess since I focus on more of the traditional jazz. I'm learning about the modern ones now.
Wow so cool.
This guy's good! ❤
This is why I love jazzguitar :)
That's divine
KR is a beast.
Beautiful :-)
You know these moments where you miss out on something very important almost five years later? Yeah
Very nice
8:27 to 9:00 or so is beautiful. So heavy
Awesome
great player!
killin' Kurt..
Sounds like Holdsworth & Metheny having a nightmare/seizure.
It's quite beautiful actually.
This really touch me
What a lukewarm round of applause after that incredible playing. kind of makes discussions about pick ups and amplifiers kind of silly doesn’t it
finally some good camera shots at long last.
Whomever had to dislike this, well that's their choice....but they are probably either his creditors or ex girlfriends. Just sayin' :-)
not enough sex....
Otherworldly!
Siempre lo veo. Y pienso que mucha gente no sabe que se puede lograr esto con una guitarra
Other worldly
Incredible
KURT!!!!!!! 10/10
Wow that is some low action string height!
How does he get that tone that sounds like a keyboard almost? It's astounding!
It’s more in the dynamics than the timbre
Electro-Harmonix Harmonic Octave Generator pedal
@@javiceres it's an effect for the organ-esque tones. That timbre on guitar is impossible without effects.
E.g. 0:55 etc. The chords and chord being froze with the pedal.
It's also in the video description the pedal and effect that gives the draw-bar organ like tone.
I believe in UFO's
+Leonardo Montenegro I met Kurt once and I asked him if he was an extraterrestrial. He did not say no...
I asked Kurt what his favourite Brand is. He says Russell
This is the best comment ever, in Internet history. Thank you
UFO were a British heavy metal band.....
Is that a D'Angelico EXSS I don't think so...? Cause mine is.
Is his pickup selector controlling the pedals or does he just switch them normally? Thats so cool dude dang.
su música es universal
what effect is that? i must own it!
Tour de force!
