What I love about watching Julian play is that he is so observant. He's always watching, encouraging, and complementing everyone whilst simultaneously knocking it out of the park himself. What an experience!
Each member of this band is the consummate professional. No one is stepping on anyone else's toes and everyone's playing just enough for everyone else. Great chemistry between all four.
great tasteful playing all around. saved this video to watch again many times

I Came to listen to one of the tunes via the gear page.... the guitar player posted one of the tunes. So happy to see there are more! Such a gift you guys had playing with Julian. Lovely playing by everybody, kudos!
Well done Jakob. Your melodies are really faithful to the songs and you have lots of musical ideas to create forward motion. I hope to develop this even more this year, and get the use of triad subs feature more in my vocabulary.
@@jakobaumaier4428 I'm still taking a listen once in a while. This is for sure one of the most fun performences of this standard I have heard! Maybe because of the simplacity and minimalism physically and musically!
Man this sounds good for the simple set up. Drummer doing a great job keeping momentum with just snare and ride. And obviously Lage is killing.........
I agree with your follow up comment; I’ve always found that when I’m playing with musicians that are highly skilled, more so than myself, they make it so easy to play along with them. Maybe because they’re able to each carry the music in their own way it feels like floating. I think also some of their ability is bound to rub off on whoever they’re playing with
@@benyoungblood4770 okay I'd agree with that most of the time, but I've sat in on jams with some killler players that really have some chops and taste you know? But constantly call tunes out that are freakinngg hard. Like wanting to play cherokee suuupppeeerrr fast or really hard bop heads (hahaha maybe that's not awful but hell I can't keep up)
My adrenaline was off the charts and it was not easy to keep it together I was also sick that day and hadn't really practiced jazz in a while. I had kind of given up on finding the time to playing a gig together and then: boom. I'll never forget that day an I'll be forever grateful it happened.
So what was the story behind this, exactly? He just walked into a restaurant randomly and had his tele with him?! This is great! Did you guys chat with him afterward?
Pat Martino and George Benson are still alive, along with Angelo Debarre, Bireli Lagraines, Jimmy Rosenburg. Guthrie Govan too, now that I think of it.
@@cjgreen4331 There are other great guitarists out there but where Lage shine is that he is equally stunning using electric, jazz and acoustic guitar. And read his biography. He was a child "prodigy". Seeing his level at now 33 years old, who knows what heights he will reach...
@@francoisnuq3304 Gypsy guitarists like the rosenburgs, Olli soikelli, and especially Bireli mastered bebop and gypsy in their 20s, and that requires the use of both acoustic and jazz guitars. Martino played with giants like Don Patterson at 19. Not downplaying Lage, cause he's bringing back melody to jazz improv, something that's sorely lacking nowadays, but the title of one of the greatest is a big claim, it has no meaning if it's used on everyone that deserves more recognition for their skills.
@@cjgreen4331 the tittle is not used on everyone. He has skills but more than that, he plays "right". Somebody who don't listen to jazz could listen to him and love his music. It's the same for Lagrenee and Benson. Listen to what he does. It feels very natural and the technique is not overwhelming. And to me ears, it sound new, fresh, smart... though I understand everybody can have his own thinking about that :-)
I’ve had to come back for a second comment. 😂 This is just wonderful. Julian is not only outstanding, but also comes across as very humble and clearly just loves playing. And well done Jakob for encouraging whoever it was to be quiet. 🙌🏼🙌🏼 I would love to be good enough to have Julian sit in with me.
Thank you! Julian is exactly those things. The amount of love spread during the gig was beyond. The disturbance was actually caused by a student of mine who has a tendency to misread situations. And believe me, the voice telling me I have no business playing with Julian was looouuud. I just decided to ignore it, find all the courage I had in me and go with it. I just listened to this for the first time in half a year. I didn't play horrible but I didn't play great either. The main thing I got from it was: Take care of the people around you and be supportive encouraging an nurturing if you can. If you can't, take care of yourself first.
I have one of Gregor's albums through my brother in law who plays sax around Vienna, what a surprise to come across this video! Lovely playing all round
The line at 7:07 is pretty crazy. When they go to Dm7b5 - G7 - Cm7 Julian plays something completely different. But I can't figure out what he's thinking there... does anyone know?
Sorry I misread your comment. Over the minor 2-5-1 after, I'm not entirely sure, the notes are from a Gb mixolydian scale coming down, so I guess he's super imposing Gb7 over the Dm7b5. Then playing a Gm7b5 arpeggio up to get sharp 9 sound over the G7.
@@beng3672 Thanks! Yeah I guess it makes sense to play a Gm7b5 over a G7 if you look at it as an altered chord. But super imposing a Gb7....? I don't see how that works lol. But it sounds good.
its absolutely due to his evolution - he was a monster doing straight ahead stuff when he was younger! hes making different note and playing choices recently and the artistry just might be better for it
Completely agree - tons of jazz guitarists cram as many arpeggios and bebop licks into their solo as they can, Lage is one of the few who keeps ideas melodically interesting, yet simple enough to not be cluttered. Not to mention his outstanding comping. Just a masterclass all around.
Unglaublich! Was für eine tolle Geschichte und was für ein Geschenk-für euch UND uns! Vielen Dank!
What I love about watching Julian play is that he is so observant. He's always watching, encouraging, and complementing everyone whilst simultaneously knocking it out of the park himself. What an experience!
The feeling when Julian Lage was playing close to your home and you had no idea about it...
Exactly, how could we not even hear about this... lg klaus
You mean the feeling of nothing ?
@@GeorgeGogaladzee no, the feeling of missing out on a moment you'd have enjoyed to see in person ;)
EMOTIONAL DAMAGE
Each member of this band is the consummate professional. No one is stepping on anyone else's toes and everyone's playing just enough for everyone else. Great chemistry between all four.
The guitar player with the glasses has an unbelievable vibe! Love it
Julian's Tele sounds fantastic!! And what he play's: HEAVEN !!
So G.D. Beautifullll !! Hmmm !!
So nice from Julian to tell the bassist to take a 2nd chorus. Also amazing that the second guitarist ask a guy to chut
Excellent! Julian Lage is the guy who everybody's watching, of course, but Gregor, Martin and Jakob are no slouches either! Kudos guys👏
I MISS THE JAM SESSIONS
Damn, I need to start eating at THAT restaurant! Great job, guys!
Thank you! The Restaurant sadly no longer exists. It will forever be a wonderful memory though.
So beautiful. Musical gold.
i really enjoy julians playing here, the drummer also left his message clear
How can people talk through this? Even if you hate "jazz" you can't ignore the great musicianship here. Would say they're lucky to play together.
Damn you are badass to play with Lage. subbed. Super impressive the collaboration and mutual support going on in this video
Oh man, Julian always amazing!!
AWESOME, great musicians!!!

I love Martin Kleibls playing! He likes a challenge. He has his own youtube channel now if you allow the plug
fantastic playing!
what Jazz is all about. thanks for sharing.
Beautiful my favorite guitarist soulful
I like how basist watches how Julian plays
This is one brunch I’m sorry to have missed.
this is great all around...love the ending...
Melodisch, groovy, professionell! Respekt
Fantastic, great band.
We want more....
Love.
Something might be coming soon...
Must be hard to keep it all together when such a monstrous musician is sitting in.
Maybe it also fades away because the music feels so good :)

Nice to see your group play so freeley I wish it was like that in my country

nice bass solo
that is some beautifully tasteful playing from the bassist. damn
3:37 sounds like a goat joined in. Amazing playing by all!
perhaps that upside down star had something to do with it
Man that tele is just nice
wow. just wow
Beautiful
So the arguably greatest guitar player on the planet casually plays in small austrian restaurants ?
Pat Martino and George Benson are still alive, along with Angelo Debarre, Bireli Lagraines, Jimmy Rosenburg. Guthrie Govan too, now that I think of it.

I want this drummer :D
Amazing players, i wish I could see what Jakob is playing
A real storyteller!
nice!
Tolle Band! Und Julian sowieso ;-)
thanks a lot for share!!!!!
0:45-2:45 for my reference! Awesome playing
JAZZ ! ❤
Yess!! wuhuuu!!!!!
we want more
Sorry, thats all I can give you. We'll do it again next year and I'll try to make another Video. I'm glad you like it though!
완벽한 순간이네요~~

Very good!
Yes

Its over a 2-5-1 to Eb maj. He's playing a Bb augmented arpeggio up two octaves which he then resolves to Ebmaj with a naughty maj7 line.

A George Benson trick
Yeah... yeahh☺...

Imagine going to cracker barrel and getting this performance
Whatever those drumsticks are they give me great tension But I like it

The guitarist with the tele kinda looks like Trevor from GTA, but an actually good person
Hahaha!

Hallo Jakob, vom Julian kannst du auch Freundlichkeit und Fairness lernen!
VG Wolfgang (ES 165)
Somehow Julian is the least jazzy of the great jazz guitar players. Kinda like Shaolin monk, makes walking up a vertical wall look not that hard.
its absolutely due to his evolution - he was a monster doing straight ahead stuff when he was younger! hes making different note and playing choices recently and the artistry just might be better for it
Completely agree - tons of jazz guitarists cram as many arpeggios and bebop licks into their solo as they can, Lage is one of the few who keeps ideas melodically interesting, yet simple enough to not be cluttered. Not to mention his outstanding comping. Just a masterclass all around.
I didn't know scott can play guitar.
God Lage is so killing
why does he have to be yeahing every line of the solo?
why did you speed this up?
