I've been classically trained for a little over ten years, and I've been dying to learn some jazz like this Just never found the right sheet music Until now
Jazz isn't restricted to sheets like classical music. It's more on improvisation. Some jazz musicians have a chord progression to play with, but everything above that is played on the spot
To Timmothy and Brent: it’s not lost on the majority of classically trained pianists that “true” jazz piano music is done by ear and improvised on the fly. However, it is no crime at all for them to want play music written *in the style of jazz*, nor for people like the Mad Arranger to develop and release scores in this manner. So if you’re trying to troll, give it up.
It's a proven fact that if he sits or stands still for more than 30 seconds without playing a piano, the universe would begin to collapse back into itself, essentially reversing back into the singularity before the big bang.

The nerves that move your hands are also connected to your face and mouth. When you're totally lost in the music, you cant help but make those awesome psychopath facial expressions.
Somehow Jacob Koller's videos never cease to amaze me. I really love the way he has his own unique style, but sticks to the trad jazz roots at the same time. It sound like something straight from a smoky Manhattan bar in the 50's.
I SOOO Love how you 'drag time' on the little downward motif..and then jump back into the swing.....smh....you're downright scary, bro. Congrats!! and kudos!! Like I tell my students when they see someone performing at your level..."Remember the work that went into getting to that point! No one gets it for free!!"...
Bound....I'd say **** happens, but this certainly was not ****. Thumbed up your funny comment. Wierd, it's truncating my first four stars to two, kind of blows the joke. ;-(
I had a girlfriend once who was a classical pianist. Her contribution to my life was teaching me the art of the sustain pedal. A good pianist uses it as a crutch. A great pianist uses it for its intended purpose. Bravo!
Alucard Vigilate Dismas at least you can play it on your phone I can only play this level of awesomeness in my dreams my phone isn't even worthy to play this
Commenting after listening to the first 27 seconds! I am in awe - your left hand doing something completely different to your right - my brain wouldn't cope lol! Going to carry on listening and be even more in awe!
Beautiful arrangement, love it! Little worried about your posture but I guess they do say an artist must suffer for their work! The result is fantastic. Great stuff.
When making music I would usually make the accompanying melodies and loop them.. This guy did that with his hands for 3 minutes straight..I thought this was a myth..I guess he is legend.. hahaha really amazing...definitely losing my self confidence
I love this arrangement! I was 5 when The Pink Panther cartoon show came out, and my parents took me to see all of the Pink Panther movies....so this song is dear to my heart. If Henry Mancini was here today he might just quote Lebowski and say "the Dude abides" 🤣 Jacob I've been following for quite a while and love all of your work. I think it would be spectacular to hear and see you and Doc K play a boogie woogie arrangement of Toccata and Fugue!
Normally I don’t watch all of most videos but I had to hear what was coming next . There was this level of anticipation that stuck with me the entire video
Well! You definitely play the piano better then I can, and I really like this peace, your arrangement is just perfect, thank you for letting us enjoying it.
Hello!! First time to leave a comment. Since this January I had became your big fan! Always you play amazing piano with super nice arrange. I'm looking forward to listen new uploads. I don't play piano but when I'm watching your play i would love to play! Thank you very much for every time entertain me!
Oh, man! What expression! Love it. So much funk. Right hand playing around the beat of the left; I hope my brain & hands can do that someday, haha 😁 Brilliant! Cheers, and ty!!
EVERY time I come back to this video I see/hear things I didn't before. I absolutely "dig" this arrangement. You make an arrangement that "kicks (your own) butt", and then work it and perfect it to this level. Love that, too. As Yoda might say, "True to his art, he is".
@@JacobKollerMusic Replying to a comment I made five years ago and you answered four years ago, for god knows what reason, I just heard one of the foremost concert pianists in the world say, in an interview, that if you are not playing a concert a little bit outside your comfort zone you aren't giving the audience what they deserve. Similar sentiment.
Excellent! Pink Panther,Peter Sellers, Henry Mancini fan. Most of all I'm a drummer and this is right up my alley. Tomorrow morning I'm going straight to the drums and playing along with this! Love it! It's going to be in my head all night. I'm hearing a bit of Billy Cobham/Steve Gadd with hint of Roy Haynes (and every other drummer I love) ... Lots of things to try out on this as a drummer. Man all those years practicing was so worth it. Being able to communicate and improvise through music is a beautiful thing. Thanks for the inspiration 😎
Jacob it is always a pleasure to see your colours through your covers. I know you don't take requests, but still i want to tell you about a song i found and right after hearing it the first thing i thought was "this song needs a Jacob cover". Is "Here comes a thought" from the cartoon Steven Universe. It has a very wide and loyal fandom, and that particular song is a favorite for many people. If you could get the chance to see its music video, you would find it really beautiful as many of SU fans do. Let the song speak for itself, it is truly a wonderful, lovely and beautiful theme on love, understanding and relationships.
Seriously, this is one of the reasons the internet was invented. So that we could sit here and partake in all this awesomeness! I have now put quite a few of your videos in my "watch later" folder, and they will accompany me on my morning walk tomorrow. Thank you, you unbelievably talanted human being! PS. I listened to this early this morning, and for hours on end at work I kept humming that funky base loop, real quiet, pretty much just as I was breathing in and out. I just kept doing it over and over and over, until I didn't even know I was doing it...and it probably sounded like I was having some sort of asthmatic seizure or something. :-D
@@MagnusMoerkoereJohannesen LOL ok. I thought you were a musician. If I knew I wouldn't confuse you with technical terms😁😁 I'll try to explain them briefly. Time signature basically determines how you count the notes and how many notes are in each bar (bar is the smallest section of a song) , if you pay a little attention you'll notice that the song suddenly completely changed its rhythm after almost two minutes.

That was amazing! (But the cyc needs another coat.) Being serious, I wish I could play like that... it is enough that somebody CAN. And I love that this actually stays very much with the feel of the original. Thank you. It is a pleasure to hear and see you play.
Einstein once said to Yehudi Menuhin after a recital, 'Once again you have proved to me there is a god in heaven'. I am not a religious man, so the closest I can come to such a compliment is to say that you, Mr. Koller, prove time and time again that some gods walk amongst us, and play the piano.

Either he's playing so good that he's distorting space-time, or he needs a better camera man.
This comment makes no sense
Brendan Swords no if you pay attention to the camera sometimes it skews and distorts
it's video stabilization
Went a little heavy with the warp stabilizer in post
Maybe some views on the actual keys might make it more impressing
The melody that comes in at 2:05 is so good. Such joy.
That hand independence is insane!
have you heard any prof. pianist, like, ever?If anything, he's sluggish.Sorry
Boy, you play extraordinarily well. And he's also super creative. Praise God for your talent !!!!
Thank you so much!
Incredible playing and arranging. So many influences...funk...stride..walking bass..and a healthy dose of Keith Emerson to finish with!

I've no idea why this piece is difficult, but I recognize a boppin', toe-tappin' tune when I hear one!
Why so difficult? Mad key signature changes, very complex rhythm and being technical in general.

I keep coming back to this, it is amazing
As a recording engineer, I have 2 questions. What brand and model is this piano? Where are you hiding the microphones?
Maybe there's a self-contained digital recorder hidden inside the piano. Or the audio recording was made separately.
Could be wireless mics in the piano.
Could be a mic set just above frame to the right of the picture.
It's a clever placement if it is, because there's no boom shadow on the ground.
This is crazy stuff. Congrats on being so masterful.
