Béla Fleck & Edmar Castañeda: Live at Big Ears Festival 2019 | JAZZ NIGHT IN AMERICA
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 3 окт 2024
- Béla Fleck, the world's preeminent banjo player, and Edmar Castañeda, a peerless master of the Colombian harp, share more than a penchant to pluck magic out of strings. Both musicians are keen listeners with lightning reflexes and the ability to pounce on any digression. They're both alchemists of style, unbound by the rules of genre. And each has a way of making virtuosity feel generous, disarming any look-at-me heroics with a spirit of welcome.
They had never played together before this performance at the 2019 Big Ears Festival. The concert, at Saint John's Cathedral in Knoxville, Tenn., features an equal portion of compositions by Fleck and Castañeda, as well as a flamenco-charged classic by Brazilian composer Jacob do Bandolim. The notes rain in cascades, or flow like rivulets, but always in service of bright communion.
This performance was recorded at St. John's Cathedral in Knoxville, Tenn., on July 31, 2019.

Quote "they had never played together before this performance..." Uh, what... I seems like they have been playing together for ages. The music is rather amazing, start to finish...
Just heard Fleck, Castaneda, and Antonio Sanchez at the Blue Note in NYC last week. It was the most extraordinary sound world created by these three masters playing their own wonderful compositions throughout. It was so off the charts great, I went back two nights later....a revelation....again!
Bela and Edmar great musicians. I saw Bela in Las Vegas years ago and love it. God bless this wonderful guys.
2 amazing players bringing out the best in each other
¡¡Me encanta este tipo de música y sobre todo la interpretación de cada uno de ellos!! Todo el amor que le tienen a la música y a su instrumento mismo se nota demasiado. Edmar no puede evitar que el sentimiento al tocar le salga por todo el cuerpo. ¡¡Increíble!! Él siempre alegre y disfrutando al máximo su interpretación. Simplemente maravilloso.
I've been a big fan of Béla Fleck for a long while, but it's a treat to discover Edmar Castañeda, who is (also) amazing!
likewise i discover Bela Fleck long ago through Toumani Djabate and now im fan of Edmar too xD
I saw Edmar with his own group more10 years ago in Westport CT, a very intimate setting. Thanks to the sound engineer for this top shelf performance, I was transported back in time before several forks in my personal road. Bravo Bela and Edmar!
Wow, this is incredible. I wonder if Béla and Edmar would consider recording an album together. This is great music!
I remember the first time I heard Edmar play...NPR Tiny Desk series...and it blew me away. Pretty sure I’ll have these goosebumps for at least a week after hearing this. Killer performance from two giants
tocar el harpa así!!nunca vi!!maravilloso!
What a treat thank tou so much for sharing!!! Sounds like the marriage of the 4 elements... So precious musicians and virtuosos 🌈🔥🌈
Such a feast for the ears, every time I listen to this!!! My god. So wish I’d been there in person. Btw, hate to judge the audience, but the quiet, polite applause was kind of anger-making. But could be they were just gobsmacked and stunned, just like I was the first time I watched this. On this Earth, it doesn’t get any better than Bela and Edmar jamming together
Holy wowsers!!!
Beautiful...and abstract
That dedication to Jaco Pastorius was Amazing 😻
Thank You Edmar !
Great Composition !
Amazing combination of 2 great players !!
Edmar could be 5th member of the Flecktones
I love listening to real music, Thanks!
This is unreal. The technical skills here are off the chart. Complex compositions and super execution. I saw BF with the Flecktones a few times and its such a great experience.
Thank you for sharing! Awesome!
This is fantastic, thanks for sharing these two musicians making beautiful music!
Both are unique musicians
do the 6 people who disliked this lack ears or simply lack a heart?
Not predictable enough perhaps
Freakin' DOPE. Keep on like this Edmar.
Bravo ❤
Amazing.
This is amazing!! I searched bass guitar first few minutes on the screen))
Same actually.
This is fellowship!
Saw this concert in March - I've followed Béla for years, but this was a wonderful introduction to Edmar Castañeda.
que bonitoo! y que hermoso panorama de la construcción
Wowee! Thank you so much for sharing this with the world! :-)
The best
Wow!
All the wrong notes sounds fantastiiik...love these souls
Incredible.
gratulálok! nagyon csodás koncert volt,különleges hangszerekkel-bravó!!!
Sooo gooood! I hear shades of Malian kora stylings in Edmar's playing. I wonder if it's intentional or if it's just natural way to play both instruments that way.
Amazing. Thanks for this!
This is Whole America
This is awesome
this is GREAT!
Awesome!!! 👏🏿
dope
👏👏💐
Oh I am in love with this harp. Someone please tell me there is an album or at least one in the works between these two.(the banjo is sublime as well, per usual)
Bugger~ By the 3rd " For Jaco " You could Swear that J.P's in the Room with the two of them Learning a Thing or Whatever... That's some Complicated Stuff to Take In ! I'll Buy the Album ...Bela Should Now Get Made a Yellow Banjo to Complement the Blue Of Edmars Harp ***** [ Five Star Stuff ]
google, sir, i think that's not jaco pastorius

finger circus.
Can I fit a harp into my Yaris?
23:00 nice arfajazz
This is one of those cases where I find something and immediately think I'll love it (I know me). And I don't. Another one is Esperanza Spalding. It's interesting how some virtuous playing and finest music sometimes just don't connect emotionally.
The Harpist is Colombian, but the Harp is Not Colombian, the Colombian harp does not exist. Venezuela has many harpists, it is harpist land. Some techniques used are from the Venezuelan harp.
Edmar Castañeda is from Barinas, Venezuela...
The technique comes from the Orinoquia, which is shared between Colombia and Venezuela. No need to add country labels here...
@@Sakarron Edmar no es Venezolano, nació en Bogotá, Colombia al igual que su padre Pavelid Castañeda
@@robertomarquez3533 Hablaré en mi perfecto Español,La Orinoquia no existe,la Orinoquia es un Proyecto GEOPOLÍTICO creado por los Colombianos en la impotencia de tener una salida fluvial al Mar a través del Orinoco,la creación Mitológica ha creado monstruos intragables e ilusorios para el Colombiano quien no tiene la capacidad para demostrar sus afirmaciones ¿Que es el Joropo?¿Acaso es un género musical llanero? NO,no lo es! Es el primer derrumbe de toda la mitología creada, no existe una LLaneridad,La llaneridad colombiana es de Colonos,personas desplazadas de sus territorios originales por la violencia que han sufrido por décadas,Los colonos provenientes de las zonas Boyacenses,Cundinamarca,Tolima representan el mayor porcentaje de la Región llanera¿Entonces?Que llaneridad o que Orinoquia hace alarde,lo cierto es que los colonos tienen su Música,música de la región andina de donde proceden.El Arpa de Venezuela y otros instrumentos que en su organología lo acompaña provienen de Venezuela,son conocidos en territorio colombiano en comienzos de la década de 1960.Tengo una pregunta para usted¿Como puede usted pensar que un género como el Joropo tiene origen en el llano, explique como surgió el género,que interviene en él?Mr.Castañeda emula,imita una pequeña porción de lo mucho que significa las diversas variantes de la música venezolana,lo que imita no es original de la música de los llanos venezolanos,lo invito a descubrir la escuela Arpística Venezolana.
@@RafaelMorenoSaavedra así como el Sr.castañeda no es Venezolano,tiene NACIONALIDAD,expresiones,diferencias, asimismo el JOROPO NO ES COLOMBIANO,el Joropo es un género producto del mestizaje Venezolano,ese lenguaje distintivo se expresa en recursos musicales.
