i was lucky to be at this concert and i haven't forgot a second of how i felt. it still feels the same. i told my friend, "i don't know where we went, but we're back now."
As a musician, every time I listen to this, I am absolutely mesmerized by this musical piece. The synergy between Brad Mehldau's incredible piano sensitivity and depth and Mark Guiliana's captivating drumming is truly extraordinary. The album 'Taming the Dragon' takes me on a musical journey like no other. Beautiful and inspiring!
Finally, Mehdlau out of his comfort zone.. and he is BRILLIANT... I have waited so long to hear him do something different.. and he just ROCKS the show now.. I can't even describe my feelings regarding the drummer.. man... he is a miracle..
Um the first time I saw Mehldau play was with Scott weiland with Daniel lanois at the rainbow in the late 90s. What I’m saying is I don’t think Brad is ever OUT of a comfort zone. Btw backstage Lanois and the rest were all “Holy shit the keyboardist!!” So they were just being exposed also!!
Mark Guiliana is by far my favorite drummer of all time. In my opinion, every performance of him reaches a level of musicality that is very hard to match for everyone who sits on a drum kit. But this piece of music has such incredible tension; man, I love it!
They're beasts and we know that. But let's give credits to the amazing video director who did a fantastic job which matched perfectly the atmosphere: Alex Chaloff.
this is the music which represent the best our cosmos not just our little solar system i feel the enormous volume of gaz that can create a sun and many others
I've been a Mehldau fan since ever and I went to a Mehliana concert in CCB (Lisbon, Portugal) without knowing what I will be listening and it was mindblowing. Totally unexpedcted. Since then I listened to this version hundreds of times...love the video, the sound without the synth of the recorded version and the small crowd... a classic.
My soul drives the wave. my heart beats with pure euphoria, my mind races with excitement and joy and my hands tap in and out with the beat. But ...Can someone please tell me if Mark Guiliana is human? and if so ...How? and what?? Like, Every time I get to that 6:00 minute my whole life comes to a stop.😭😭😭😭
I can keep coming back to these live performances of songs off the album "Taming the Dragon" by Mehliana (posted by Nonesuch Records) and be certain that I'll find myself, again and again, enlightened and impressed by the amount of creativity displayed by the tandem of Mehldau and Guiliana.
I love what Brad does with this tune. The composition has a strong minor feel, but he plays around enough just outside of the tonal center of the track to make it interesting.
Right before 4:33, I love Mark Guiliana's few second musical lead up to Brad Mehldau's stank face of awe and appreciation. So badass and glorious to get, in real time, a genuine musical reaction from Brad. Guiliana tickled Mehldau's musical intellect. So fascinating!
I heard aoither track on Jamie Cullen the other week . Its fair to say this is going to be the best jazz album in the last 30 years. God I love this xxx
Glad the comments are so resoundingly blown away as I am! This is just plainly some of the greatest playing ever captured on A/V. staggering execution, masterful creativity, intensely intense! I love how brad mehldau's stinkface (prince's term for what happens when you're in the pocket just right) NEVER leaves his face! Just! totally! Awesome!
Just found this song recently. I noticed it's hard to try to listen to the melody and the drums at the same time, but if you focus on one at a time, it's really great. Deciding when to switch your focus on to the melody or the drums provide a unique experience every time.
This is still nowhere near getting old, and I've been rinsing it for nine years. Absolutely incredible.
same.
One of those pieces that finds a particularly compelling nerve and drives it to the dendritic end.
For a while I listened to it every time I worked out. 250 plays of this set, wish they would release more of it!

We need Nonesuch to release the live recordings yesterday! This is too good to be relegated to RUclips.
a whole Mehliana live release would be fantastic
Finally, Mehdlau out of his comfort zone.. and he is BRILLIANT... I have waited so long to hear him do something different.. and he just ROCKS the show now.. I can't even describe my feelings regarding the drummer.. man... he is a miracle..
Miracles do happen....and in this case, Man, they are gifts galore....
agreed, this one is hard to compute

Alex Chaloff should get a raise, fantastic recording of this awesome performance
this just makes you feel something words dont describe

Now this is music people. This level of playing is on such a high level.
super agree
the music doesnt need to be super complex like this, can be 4 chords in 4/4 and be a masterpiece
@@juanquiroga8933 not really if you heard thousands of songs like that...

Con que saltas chaparrastrù! a la gente solo le importan los musicos. Si por alguna razon alguien quiere saber el nombre de los creditos, los busca.
I was lucky enough to be at this very show, and it was ridiculously awesome.
Brad's lines are killin. Mark sounds amazing. So inspiring.
100% agreed.
Flowing urgency. Love it.
this is the music which represent the best our cosmos
not just our little solar system
i feel the enormous volume of gaz that can create a sun and many others
So wonderful
So heavy and so smooth and groovy at the same time.. Two geniuses, the drum solo is out of this world
Peace Sister Music 🎶 Thanks for sharing. Be encouraged in your creative expressions and peace...
Mark Guiliana is such a bad-ass. Jeez listen to the groove and detail of his playing.
I've been a Mehldau fan since ever and I went to a Mehliana concert in CCB (Lisbon, Portugal) without knowing what I will be listening and it was mindblowing. Totally unexpedcted.

The chord progressions in this song are amazing!
And 2:23, just wow...
I don’t how many time i cameback here play it again,
It is a rare recording that changes everything. This is onesuch. Pure ecstasy.
It's actually Nonesuch. Sorry, bad joke :)
SEVEN is the new EIGHT
Preach son, 7/4 has groove
You're soo right! Not only to hear but it is very nice to play in 7
@@lukasjouck5070 I still play in 8 and everything seems interesting ahahahah
7 is the new 4
Going deeper ... Love this sound layering opening up new pathways.
sublimely astonishing.
Wow. What a great tune. Love the rhythms, really nice. Takes me somewhere crazy and cosy at the same time.
Mark is surely from another planet🎉
My soul drives the wave. my heart beats with pure euphoria, my mind races with excitement and joy and my hands tap in and out with the beat.

simply monsters of music...I like it!!!
Was that a king crimson reference?
two masters of their craft, creating on the spot...what else could you want
the drumming is just superb this time it really got to me
so much better than the album version
album version slaps too tho
Indeed. I wish they would make an official release for this version. It smokes. So much soul.
Such a full, beautiful sound. Really diggin this duo.
I love what Brad does with this tune. The composition has a strong minor feel, but he plays around enough just outside of the tonal center of the track to make it interesting.
Its kind of a major/minor feel
No smoke screen.. no light-show... Just music.... At it's best.. amaizing...

Missing of my life .....you play this music....Thanks so much ♥
This joint is killin with the mood
It could be every music. It`s basically Jazz, but it could be a rock, ballad, and ... might something beyond music itself. Brad is such a good man.
Clearly one of the best Videos on You Tube.
You know you are spiritually connected to your instrument when you don't need to open your eyes to play it.
The drums are unbelievably beautiful .
the mix is unreal, the music...no words, am I in this world?
I could watch this all day
Brad always seems open to experimentation. And it works! This number almost has a 'Doorsy' feel to it.
Exactly! This tune reminds me of the Doors.
Good spot! Now that you say it I suddenly see it as well.
Just awesome!!!
The sound of the drums is just so crisp.
This right here is one great piece. The mix is just absorbing.
Inspiration. Beautiful music
Love it. Brad and Mark, thank you SO much for the motivation and inspiration and all. Thanks. A lot. Please keep going.
Both are exquisite
That's stuniishing, I can't listen to this song without moving all parts of my body.
Pure magic
this is what jazz needs to keep up in the new media world. dope
The music is of course fantastic, but I gotta say that the atmosphere of the room and the way this was filmed is really cool.
couldnot agree more for this kind of music it's only suiting that it is filmed this way
Fuck no, live music has never good angles, only variations of musicians superimposed..irritating
Beyond the threshold of possibility. Magic
Massive we need more of this in the world !
j'adore! il est un de mes pianistes préférés.
Always great.
i never get tired of these vids
Absolutely astonishing!🙌
Exceptionally good music and musicians!
Maravilhosos! Viva a musica de qualidade!!!
perfection.
wow, just wow...so much coordination....and also quite-groovy.
i love the mixing too. with all that cymbal play
Really tanks. Love you
I heard aoither track on Jamie Cullen the other week . Its fair to say this is going to be the best jazz album in the last 30 years. God I love this xxx
Those two guys are magicians! This is outstanding!
Magnifique !!!
Omg! The interplay!! :D :D
THE AMEIZING BRAD Mehldau
❤😊
fantastic, music of the highest level
man that snare sounds sick!
The whole kit I’d say. Mark is as great as crafting timbres as is at composing rhythms
Magnifique, merci pour le partage de la revue DJAM
Reminds me of a humid, summer night riding through empty city streets.
me hice adicto a este tema lo estoy escuchando 5 veces al dia, y voy por mas, es Excelente !!
Would be great to have this LIVE version as an album available for audio streaming as well.
Such a departure from his earlier stuff....love his style. Those roaming legatto bass lines are absolutely genius!
great duo so dynamic
Glad the comments are so resoundingly blown away as I am! This is just plainly some of the greatest playing ever captured on A/V. staggering execution, masterful creativity, intensely intense! I love how brad mehldau's stinkface (prince's term for what happens when you're in the pocket just right) NEVER leaves his face! Just! totally! Awesome!
Just Amazing!! Can't wait for this album!
7 years later, I still love this album. Sounds as fresh today as 2014
Suena como un nuevo ciclo en la vida. Gracias !!!!!
The generational bridge between Mehldau and Guiliana isn't that far apart, yet they exist in the same musical time: 7/8.
Muchas gracias
awesome project :)
Mark and Brad together, such heights!
Nothing short of amazing
Wow love it amazing
Mehldau, who I always knew before this as an acoustic grand piano player, comes outta nowhere with the most stacked synth rig of all time !!
Just found this song recently. I noticed it's hard to try to listen to the melody and the drums at the same time, but if you focus on one at a time, it's really great. Deciding when to switch your focus on to the melody or the drums provide a unique experience every time.
Moc pěkná prácička
Mark Guiliana is killing it on drams ... so dynamic
🫠
OMFG!! Great sound
outstanding
Just love this composition ,so effective
Genius.
Mehldau is the guy who’s moving jazz on and at a fast pace
still love it!!
Oh my god, this is so epic.
0:55 game of thrones!!! love this guy :)
