Gran pianista Lyle Mays y de gran musicalidad e inspiración. "Stella by starlight" es uno de esos temas míticos que después de habérsela escuchado tocar a Bill Evans, se quedan grabados en la memoria del alma. Lyle Mays se reta a sí mismo ofreciendo esta versión. Precioso legado.
Incredible work! I think Lyle said this was his favourite standard, so this performance must represent the "jazz pianist" aspect of Lyle better than any.
@@finngrassietranscriptions5000 Boy, doesn't he... :-) I haven't heard this recording before, although I've been huge fan of Lyle's since his North Texas State days. I'm stunned, again, listening to this.... He never does anything gratuitously, but it's still just...dazzling. And this transcription work is almost as dazzling! How you made sense of some of that rubato feel stuff is beyond me (as is much of the rest!). Thanks so much for this amazing contribution to our conception of what he was doing and the possibility of expanding our own appreciation and playing.
A mind blowing job on that transcription. Would take me a year minimum. Congrats and will purchase out of sheer admiration knowing I’m unlikely to ever play it!
Man it's crazy! Thanks so much! Transcribing such a thing is such a hard job, appericaiate it a lot. He played in such a profound way. His colors of reharm and beautiful feel of the intro, and than becoming a jazz bibopish with a tiny flavour of even bluesey licks at moments, really it's best showing of the talent of this genius who left us so early. Good rest his soul!
Finn, I just discovered this Outstanding Transcription. Stella By Starlight was Lyle's favorite Song, and this Performance, in particular the Intro and His Solo are Absolutely Amazing. Thank You Again for the Transcription.

This is amazing and gets an immediate Subscription from me. Pure genius from Lyle (again) and you give visibility to his method and mind. Thank you. 🎶😊
Thanks a lot for this amazing work that you have done for pianist and musicans. I love Lyle, Bill and others jazz players because they put some great skills of romantics and early XX musicans in a jazz context.
Without a doubt the most amazing version of Stella. Just beyond belief..yet always sticking to Bill Evans motivic fidelity thing except perhaps for moments in the intro wow 1st listening. Amazing transcription. Humbled by all of it. Floored
That remains one of my favorite albums of all time, which I first heard around '76 or '77. An absolute classic, and essentially a Lyle Mays album with a ready-made big band to play with. And just glorious music.
I usually don't like that Keith Jarrett, Brad mehldau floaty ECM sound, but this is truly just magnificent... he should have done more of his own thing and less with Metheny-- Harmonic genius
Isn't it just? His harmonic approach is so interesting and has great emotional depth (definitely strongly influenced by European classical music) - he makes a hackneyed jazz standard sound fresh! The placement of the Latin feel change is also very tasteful and impactful. Thanks for watching !
Very cool transcription but some of your notational choices are highly questionable. 4/12 time signatures? Barline crossing tuplets? This kind of notation is not a good representation of the music. The pianist here is simply improvising in rubato time, they are not consciously and purposefully using all these esoteric rhythms in their playing. This notation makes the playing seem way more complex than it actually is. This is also a nightmare to read, and a disservice to anyone trying to get into playing jazz piano. A beginner who comes accross this video will think "Wow, I guess I'm gonna have to learn how to sight read 4/12 time signatures and barline crossing tuplets to get into jazz piano", which is very far from the truth. I would simply stick to 4/4 except where absolutely necessary, and I would never use x/12 time signatures or barline crossing tuplets. It doesn't matter if the played rhythm doesn't exactly match the notated rhythm, as long as the notes themselves are correct.
Going back on it I would indeed simplify the notation of the intro... perhaps you can send me a simplified version regarding making sense of the rhythm. I was too exact in trying to convey in a literal sense the fluctuations in speed and so on...there is a logic to it but I would agree that a bit more of a practical approach would be more beneficial
@@finngrassietranscriptions5000 Sorry if I sounded too critical in my previous comment, I want to say that you actually transcribing all of these rhythms literally must have taken quite a lot of effort and I respect that. And some of the ways you did that, like the afforementioned 4/12, are pretty novel and clever. I just don't think their use is approriate here.

My ears kept reminding me of Debussy and the like. Spectacular work, my friend.
Absolutely... he was heavily influenced by impressionist composers. Thanks!

Thanks for this transcription. This comment by Lyle at video start si about live performance from "Au Lait", not Stella.
Glad you enjoyed the video! I just really liked that quote of his, and felt that the sentiment was reflected in his performance here

Lyles most certainly was!
Also can you transcribe his solo on "what was" lab '75 one o'clock lab band ?
Hi Eric, I'm available for commissions via finngrassie@outlook.com

Holy crap... this looks like it took a bit of time!!!
Certainly did. Had to juggle it with my day to day work but got there in the end! Thanks 😊

Is this from a recording? I can't find an LP listing. Help!
Hi James this recording was taken from a live concert of the Lyle Mays Trio Live in Buenos Aires in 1992.
measure 246 bass solo 16th note line is missing :( 9:28
Meant to add glissando here but looks like it got left out on the final score !
@@finngrassietranscriptions5000 its a 3 beat 12 note long 16th note line
2:56
Does this come from a live concert or a album, Finn Grassie?
It is taken from a live concert in Buenos Aires, in the late '90s.

Quite possibly!
