Beautiful, Fred. We spoke after your concert in Oslo. You have such a depth to your music. Thank you for sharing your story too. There can be a lot of stigma in the jazz community
Fred's playing is how I got introduced to the music of Joni Mitchell. His cover of "Both Sides Now" I found so beautiful. I had no idea he'd been through all this. What a story.
It’s the music, yes, which helped him express, connect, share experiences, learn, move on -, but lord, what an indomitable spirit this man has… I hope he will be making music in 20 years time. And if just for himself. 💛 Thanks for the honesty 🙏
Beautiful. I am so grateful for the artistry of Fred Hersch. His albums are truly a balm for the soul and as a jazz musician myself, inspiring on many levels.
Hi , I’m a classically trained pianist and I write short piano solos…I went through septic shock and coma for 3 weeks too..I know what you have been through and applaud you for dealing with it through music . I found you through Rondy Charleston, I thought Emma piano when she was young 😊
Hey Fred, I heard your music for the first time in a small mission library in San Francisco. The solo pieces youve played that day were so beautiful! Before every piece you've shared very intimate details about when you wrote them and how special this music was to you; the deep connection between the music and your immense struggle. I was in tears, deeply touched. To this day I listen to your music and try to learn as much as I can from it. Thank you for staying with us and all of your hard work. You're truly unique and I along with many others will never stop appreciating what you've done for the jazz community. thank you.
Mainly jazz is the music what many people hate, cause they heard that jazz snob stuff with no heart and soul. But Fred Hersch bringht there a lot of real emotions and beauy just like Michel Petrucciani did. That's the real jazz and art. Usually there is something tragic story behind it like it was with Michel also, who suffered that genetic disease "osteogenesis imperfecta".

I remember listening to Fred at the Angry Squire in NYC. Marc Johnson and Adam Nussbaum completed the trio. Fred played so well.
Wow... Absolutely remarkable testimony
