So happy to have gotten to experience this from like a foot away. This was the first time they had played together. Really cool to see two such different and influential guitarists play together.
I'm just drooling over these two gorgeous hand-made guitars!! Beautiful tones, awesome responsive pickups... They sound this good even outdoors. But of course, it's JL and MM playing them. They are undoubtedly the creme de la creme of contemporary Jazz guitarists in their generation. Thanks for posting this!!!
Thanks to all involved. I am an old greeny that loves to see these young artists playing as one. The sharing of beautiful moments with love. Thank you.
this is amazing. I have never heard two guitarists follow eachother better than this, they are so free and each moment is full of swing and melody, it's the perfect rendition of this song! (All the things you are in particular)
Yeah I was wondering if this was the first time they had played together. I figured it was and thrilled to know that it is. They really do complement each other very well. It's an incredible pairing. I really wish they would put out a live album of their playing, but I'm really happy to just have this. Really good footage for this monumental meeting. Both of these guys are pushing the limits of modern jazz guitar and to have all of their first session together recorded is really amazing.
ThankX for this beautiful moment here... 1/ How my heart sings (Earl Zindars), 2/ Body and Soul (Johnny Green), Out of nowhere (Johnny Green). It's a big pleasure to see end hear those two guys playing such beautiful melodies that are traditionaly played in jazz since so long, they do it so well... Before writing unpleasant comments, go and listen what they are doing with their own music ! it's a jazz workshop here, jazz is a traditionnal music too ! They are tremendous players !
Kristen, to me, you seem to be missing the big point. These guys sound no less than like themselves, and that is what I look for. And them selves interact with each other like no other people, ever, on the planet. what they create is much like a fingerprint, unique, even for them.
Julian Lage is the seasoned guitarist here. Mike is a great guitarist too but Julian has such a dynamic approach to the guitar and telling a story with every solo, using dynamics in his playing. He’s quite amazing. Now his playing has grown even more to playing totally different than this in his own group. The thing I liked about is video is they both listened to each other to push the other on. Beautiful exchange here. Don’t get me wrong Mike Moreno sounds great, I’d like to hear him now! Thanks for sharing.
Before this video was another popular video of this that had hundreds of thousands of views, but was sadly removed. So this jam turns out to be their highest watched video.
when they are tradin' on all the thing tune i almost came,fluffing amazing moreno got one of most creative and mellow line ever for modern jazz guitarist,while julian got the most sweetest and vintage cool line ever this video is better than DOPE
The horn fills were excellent!! Right on pitch (for a dying goose lol) You can see it on Mikes face as to who is this guy I'm about to play with?. Julian looks just too cool for school. Hope he didn't lose something important there. I would call their lp "Fire and Passion". Now, who's fire and who's passion???
I really wish I understood jazz. It intrigues me more than it appeases my ear, although I still appreciate it for a while. Technically, I believe this is beautiful, skilled, and complex, but it's like the sound that these three factors make are not 100% what I find sonically beautiful. But jazz keeps intriguing me.
I know this might be a stupid question, but I don't understand why, at a certain point of the first tune they play, Julian Lage turns volume almost to zero while comping a la Freddie Green. I mean, would it be too loud otherwise? I thought jazz musicians traditionally kept the volume knobs at a stable value without changing them during the tune
Yeah most people aren't hip to this because they don't know the melody, timing, and harmony of the original standard in their ear. Therefore they can't appreciate what these guys are doing. Its called play, not work music.
***** Sure! But if you don't study music your gonna have a limit at some point. If you study the rules, then you can break them and make great music. And not everyone who study music is rich, at least not in my country.
***** I couldn't agree with you more. Jazz has devolved into an academic art. There's still some good jazz out there, but this is not it. This is pure craft, workshop music and not grounded in life experience or lived culture.
mannyaudaz I think Javier Ocampo 's comment was a bit to harsh. I do understand what he is saying though. This session is just playing, which I find is 'ok'. Would I pay to hear this on a night I wanna hear some good jazz. No, and I'd be upset if this is what I got. However its great to hear these guys' ideas. Personally, jazz in the golden area from the 30's to the late 60's is more my cup of tea. Also some guilty pleasures from Herbie's fusion/funk albums from the 70's along with Weather Report and anything Jaco.
***** If I'm not mistaken, ulian has had a great music level since he was around 10 years old, can you be too educated at that age? perhaps he as a big ass educational record, but you can't say he isn't good. besides, talking shit about people playing music, most of all jazz, and enjoying themselves while doing so, makes you sound like a 15 year old metalhead, which you obviously must not be
When I was younger I would react to this video like, "wow look at these two guitar players improv this amazing set together." Now that I'm older and have studied guitar for a long while..I just see the amazing guitar player on the right overplaying the entire time and Julian playing along. Both guitarists have a great sense of feel in the songs but Julian (without even trying) really carries the set and makes it easy to listen to. Very tasteful and aware of what is happening sonically. Next level stuff that is very inspiring and beyond the notes.
Maybe you need to study some more. To say that Moreno is “over playing” is naive at best. Do you not hear the emotion and creativity in his lines? The decades past of the jazz tradition? They are both top notch players. I love Julian Lage, and would even go so far to say he’s likely the most talented jazz guitarist on the planet right now, but I see so many comments like this on every video in which he’s featured. Maybe instead of subtly insulting Lage’s peers you might consider that you simply prefer his unique style.
Ryan, thanks for posting. Audio should be cleaned up and released as an EP. Just phenomenal. What's the set list? I'm too much of a novice to know at first listen.
2:14 - 9:01 = All The Things You Are
10:00 - 17:45 = Body and Soul
18:40 - 26:42 = Out Of Nowhere
11:39 a couple with a table

It would so nice to have Julian as a guest on Mike Moreno's podcast. 2022
Still amazing after all these years! Ears, open ears!
Two wonderful players, with ears, ears for what the other guy is playing. They melt together. Mike's rt hand is so light, it's mesmerizing.
Ive listened to this several times. These two guys are such kindred spirits they push each other to play better.
Fantastic! Thanks for posting that. The future of jazz guitar is secure with guys like these around.
I think Julian is one of the greatest guitar genius of the 21th century
him & Lage Lund, & Mike Moreno, & probably others
Agreed
why???
Wes,Jim Hall, George Benson, Johnny Smith, Grant Green, Jimi Hendrix, Charlie Christan
Dude 21st

Thanks to all involved. I am an old greeny that loves to see these young artists playing as one. The sharing of beautiful moments with love. Thank you.
Mike's playing ability is superb. I sometimes wish I can play the piano and listening to these two guys motivates me into wanting to learn
It's rare to see two virtuoso guitarist not trying to top each other.Wonderful
common in my experience.. especially among virtuosos - who have nothing to prove
Would love to hear an album with these two together.
this is amazing. I have never heard two guitarists follow eachother better than this, they are so free and each moment is full of swing and melody, it's the perfect rendition of this song! (All the things you are in particular)
Jeeeeezzzzz! ...Unreal!!! Glad to see Jazz is alive and well!!
Amazing playing! Moreno's tone is unreal
They're using the same amp, Mike in channel 1, the fatter channel.
@@cliffirddelbridge2810 cool! But they both have different instruments, fingers, attack and playing styles
Utterly compelling, I've watched this more than once, and I never cease to be amazed.
Pure shit.. Boring nonsense
Great playing swinging from two wonderful guitarists.
This version of All The Things You Are is unbelievable !!!
huge smile on my face, beautiful.

5:26 amazing motivic development and rhythmic displacement!!! Very original!
Nothing like drinking coffee while watching and listening these 2 playing ,improvising and mocking each other lines
Fking eargasm

Isn't the first song all the things you are?
@@NathanLevMusic Hi, yes as it is written in the third comment of the vid since 6 years :)
Oh MAN do these guys have game. They can boodle around my house anytime. Thanks for the share.
Oh man, I love Mike's chord choice while Julian plays the lead. Both are excellent nusicians
Both Guitarists are amazing.
Julian’s playing from 15:00 on is particularly exquisite.
Kristen, to me, you seem to be missing the big point. These guys sound no less than like themselves, and that is what I look for. And them selves interact with each other like no other people, ever, on the planet. what they create is much like a fingerprint, unique, even for them.
Clifford. ..like no other people on the planet !! Whooo..

Thanks for sharing.
Mike has impeccable pocket, and Julian's great comping puts that to the test.
So great. Thanks for uploading!
Beautiful playing. It's all about the swing i guess. The swing of the guitar strap.
"Ready? Let's play".
No rehearsal, never played together before. Amazing ears.
7:19 the cameraman has an eargasm! hehe We feel you dude!
Yeahhh how he picked up that device and spreaded it througout the changes wtf ...
at the end of the performance they started playing like 1 person. i love both players. who couldn't?
Mike killed all the things you are amazing rhythmic ideas and phrases.
Before this video was another popular video of this that had hundreds of thousands of views, but was sadly removed. So this jam turns out to be their highest watched video.
man each solo is so different. Julian's solo on Body and Soul makes me drift away. so awesome
Great sounds by these guys, Julian & Mike Moreno.
Kinya
this is like a dream come true
Awesome! Thanks so much for sharing this!
the future of jazz guitar is here.
One of the best guitar duos ever!!
julian is a monster!! and he makes it look sooo easy
07:15
The best thing in the world...
That line was incredible
Thanks for share this nice moment!
when they are tradin' on all the thing tune
i almost came,fluffing amazing
moreno got one of most creative and mellow line ever for modern jazz guitarist,while julian got the most sweetest and vintage cool line ever
this video is better than DOPE
11:19 which guitar superhero am i love in with? oh sure i'll help move this table until i decide
beautiful, two masters at work! :)
This reminds me so much of the Billy Bean & John Pisano album Makin' It Again. Really nice playing, guys!
The horn fills were excellent!! Right on pitch (for a dying goose lol)
You can see it on Mikes face as to who is this guy I'm about to play with?. Julian looks just too cool for school. Hope he didn't lose something important there.
I would call their lp "Fire and Passion". Now, who's fire and who's passion???
confortable weather, wonderful guitar sound
I would buy the shit out of a duo album with these two. You folks at the workshop were a lucky bunch.
Amazing guys
I like the guy walking out the door at 8:00 minutes. He walks by like he sees this everyday and it's no big deal.
Super fine playing. Heavy hitters both
These guys are masters of geek shirts, especially Mike. He also wins with the best geek haircut.
…plaid?
Yes, Mike's hair has caught my attention before. The guy has a crazy cowlick
For the year this was recorded, these shirts were very popular on the Stanford campus. Total geek.
I love the passages after 7:08 where it goes a little outside.
Nice playing guys! Nice to hear a talented jazz local Julian!
C.G.T. Ukiah,CA
Wow! Beautiful playing!
Amazing!
Julian dropped something at the beginning of the video!!
I hope I can be as good as these guys someday.
Astounding
Bravi questi ragazzi , sono moderni e soprattutto conoscono la tradizione della chitarra jazz.
...Faranno strada!
Around 3:48, the face of Mike when Julian does the legato thing, haha
Haha and Julian's face like a half a second later "Yep, that just happened"
Melted
What legato??
LOVING IT!
these guys sound like they sit around playing guitar all day...
Graham Saxton I know right! nice stuff..
They do lol
Playing is too vague a word for what they do every day imho.
Can Stanford not afford two amplifiers?
that performace was great!
mikes tone is sooooo sweet
A phenomenal duo! These fellers ought to make an album together.
AHHHH! I can't get the sound to play on this; all I get is video. I really wanted to hear this. Maybe it's my browser. Shit!
What's the tune they play after Body and Soul? Starts around 18:42...
I really wish I understood jazz. It intrigues me more than it appeases my ear, although I still appreciate it for a while. Technically, I believe this is beautiful, skilled, and complex, but it's like the sound that these three factors make are not 100% what I find sonically beautiful. But jazz keeps intriguing me.
That was cool. Thx.
This looks like a cold open, like this is the 1st time they played together.
I know this might be a stupid question, but I don't understand why, at a certain point of the first tune they play, Julian Lage turns volume almost to zero while comping a la Freddie Green. I mean, would it be too loud otherwise? I thought jazz musicians traditionally kept the volume knobs at a stable value without changing them during the tune
@kristen name one cat who don't copy
Wonderful
Both guest artists doing some clinic, then they came out to jam a little bit, i guess!
And it's amazing indeed.
Are these guys teachers, guest artists or students there? Amazing!!
Yeah most people aren't hip to this because they don't know the melody, timing, and harmony of the original standard in their ear. Therefore they can't appreciate what these guys are doing. Its called play, not work music.

mannyaudaz Well, whatever this is, it sounds better to me than whatever YOU call "jazz."
great upload!!
Body & Soul

and Julian Lage is an amazing, masterful accompanist (as well as a monster)
wowa last song was amazing.. great solo by lage
Wow. This is great.
WOW ......just WOW
Ryan, thanks for posting. Audio should be cleaned up and released as an EP. Just phenomenal. What's the set list? I'm too much of a novice to know at first listen.
thanks for posting this!
Marvellous.
This is wild.
11:33 saving this for later
Just off the top of their heads lol, more collaboration mixes with Lage Lund and Gilad Hekselman, the 4 mix it up.
Muito bom****Brazil///Rio de janeiro ///
Nice, real nice guys.
