- The Bill Frisell Trio featuring Rudy Royston - drums, Thomas Morgan - bass
Few musicians in jazz have had as wide a range of influence as has the guitarist Bill Frisell. His conception, part jazz, part rock, part country and part free improvisation, has changed the way music sounds. From his early work with the avant guardist John Zorn, through his own beautiful early works on ECM, and into his deeply felt explorations into Americana, it’s been clear that Frisell is a special, gestural player. His work with the jazz drummer Paul Motian and the saxophonist Joe Lovano, is a milestone in jazz guitar. And the trio he’s bringing, with Thomas Morgan on bass and Rudy Royston on drums, is special, with Mr. Morgan an improvising musician with no real peers. (Sound Engineer - Claudia Engelhart, Recording Engineer & Post Production: Rafael Alvarez, Video Director - Jerome Sabbagh)
Exhibition on display: John Little: Home Again, June 12 - July 18, 2021
I don’t know if anybody will read this, but there are an exceptionally astute and sensitive group of people commenting on this video. I recommend reading this comment section.
Jazz drumming like this reminds me of what an art is. Listen to how much can be done with such a small kit.
exactly!
Right! Rudy Royston is possibly my favorite drummer right now.
This is like Zen Jazz. Nothing is said/played that does not need to be played, and everything that is played is perfect for that moment, pearl after pearl, or drop after drop like rain. Truly amazing.
Perfectly stated
Define what does or does not "need to be played". The statement is utterly arbitrary.
@@chadrew6 arbitrary? hey, it may be a tad like, lame syntax, but, if one has ears and a mind with any wind in its sails ~per se~ ..it's perfect. McLaughable. lol
@@_Ramen-Vac_ My point was that there are no rules about what should and should not be played and one should use one's ears. And....your lame joke on my name used the wrong spelling of it...actually John McLaughlin's spelling.
@@chadrew6 precisely wrong. There ARE actual rules. Musical laws. Only they who know them may break them. That's simply why McLaughlin shall remain forever 10,000 x your superior. heck, mine ? 20,000 x mine. hahahaha.. because you're gOOd, and I stink. but you do not hear the harmony. just the -how fast can i noodle- thing. Zappa had a pass, even Zoot Horn Rollo.
Bill is what a musician can truly aspire to...sound and vision as one...no ego...just pure music snd flow and his teammates are in complete sympatico!😍
Simply another level. Words cannot describe the beauty they all 3 create. Bill is up there with the greatest.
Soy chileno .este trio es de excelencia ...tengo 75 año y he quedado eluminado de su musiica.
Su sumisa a la mente humana qué lleva a el espacio de la amor y el espacio y sentirlo bién y da un espacio para filosofiar....
Gracias señores para hacerlos soñor.
Rudy's sticks keep perfect time, moving the music with excitement. Flawless. Thomas's base outlines and grounds everything beautifully. Bill is his usual masterful self. What an iconic trio.
Excellent trio chemistry and performance. Inspiring artwork in the backround, too. This makes ist simply outstanding. What a great trio performance !

@@Edomsharp9 thanks!
@@richardphillips6661 thanks!
@@richardphillips6661 thanks for sharing. I love that documentary on Bill. I should watch it again. Great interview! You got some good stuff out of Bill!
i am an indian from the southernmost state of india, have grown up all through these 60 years on a staple diet of music - of various kinds - from the classical carnatic music of south india, to the hard rock and everything in between at one time or the other... the music that bill frisell makes is like nothing else, and yet is like (almost) everything else you have heard across the spectrum... ! and what i find as the cornerstone of everything he creates, is MELODY - which is the queen emperor of any/all music.
the *melodic* is that ultimate hallmark of a true music. bill's is a musical soul. hence the zen feel that so many below have so spontaneously felt and confessed here :)
Grace - indeed !!
god bless :)
I spent 2 weeks in Kerala & Tamil Nadu in '91, preaching the gospel of Jesus! Beautiful country & precious souls, love India! Lord bless you....and what a group!! ☝️
You found melody?
@rangaveeravalli beautifully put
The Bill Frisell Trio with a very special guest: paintings by Abstract Expressionist master John Little (1907-1984) on the walls. Awesome! Thanks a lot for sharing!
Meraviglia
Thanks, I was wondering who painted those!
A quick Google search yields well crafted street scene paintings too. I'd never heard of him until now. As a painter and music lover, I appreciate this beautiful setting - the unfinished, rough hewn walls, the abstractions, and this insanely talented trio. Just dropped some hard earned money into Bill's pocket for some fresh vinyl via his website. Thanks for the artist's name.
Some incredible bait in the section. Woof.
The paintings are so gooood!
As a guitar player, the temptation to just let you fingers fly and fill the void with some flash is always present. Bill never succumbs to that temptation.
Unfortunately...
Fortunately and unfortunately both at the same time.
@@Noejjkkkj Only fortunately in my opinion, there are already way too many guitarists who plays like that.
Well he has the ability, anytime he wants. And sometimes does :) It's all about restraint.
Beautiful observation and very well said.
That drummer is insanely good. Amazing speed and dynamics!
Just saw him play with Joe Lovano and Dave Douglas at The Village Vanguard, they were all amazing!
Playing slowly, quietly and fluidly at the same time is the hardest thing
Amazing touch. And with sticks! A master class in how to play the instrument. Right up there with my favorites.
That's what I noticed first. I expected Bill's genius, but those sticks were like feather strokes on the soul.
After listening to this guy for over 20 years, it just hit me -- it's not about style, technique, rhythm, harmony or even melody ... it's about connecting to people. Musician to musician, and the connection they're able to create to the listeners. That's what the greatest musicians/artists are able to do.
This is so good it dosent feel like Jazz, it feels like breathing :D
great, great definition! That´s it!
That’s a wonderful statement.
Sure doesn't feel like music.
perfectly put!
I think this may help us everybody..
Wherever we are in the world..
And whatever we are doing..
Bill gives peace and remember us all to slow down..
Thank you for postin' it..
From Italy..
I loved the word “comity” (friendly social atmosphere : social harmony) which the host used to describe Bill and his music.
As a musician how restrained Bill, sticking to the sound and harmonics, never showing off, ever so slightly varying, just so authentic. The music sounds simple but is profound. One feels joy, and gratitude. I don't know if I want to cry, sing or dance listening to this 😂
That’s exactly right: one feels joy, and tons of it.
So mellow. So subtle. It's like I don't even need my meds today.
As a guitar player almost all my life, inspirations and idols came and went. But Bill stayed for good and he doesn't seem to ever go away.
Bill is such a unique musician. His delicate sound, the country colors, the harmonic vocabulary and the big bag of electronic tricks all used with such economy and taste. Saw him play live only once in the 90's and I was blown away. A true guitar hero.
“There’s a type of stillness in his music… Bill Frisell has grace.” Perfect.
Extremely delicate and intricate music. Feather light sounds charged with emotion. The more you listen, the more you immerse in its depths of light and air.
That artwork behind the band somehow perfectly compliments this style of music lol
"Bill Frisell has a unique ability to transform notes into emotions. His performance is a journey through musical landscapes ranging from jazz to avant-garde, and each note is like a sound painting that captures the imagination. His guitar mastery is unparalleled, and his music has the power to touch the hearts and souls of listeners. A true jazz legend."
Oh damn, that transition into what the world needs now is BUTTER
GREAT mix on this! Thank you sound crew!
indeed.
The drums reached out and grabbed my toes.
@Joseph Dejarnette
Absolutely! I believe that is the handiwork and expertise of engineer Claudia Englehart (listed in credits), who has been working with Bill for many years.
Just the bass and guitar filling up all that melody and harmony. Restored my faith in humanity. Beautiful brothers. Pretty guitar.
Thomas Morgan is such a melodic bass player. What a band MASTERS
Rudy Royston has a rubber band around the beat. So good! And this music as a whole is what music is all about ever! Revelation!
The first time I heard Bill was on an episode of Camine Guitars on TV. The thing that I was stuck by was his gentle nature. He played Surfer Girl on a guitar fashioned from a salvaged piece of wood from an old New York building. What he offered was something that reached into the soul in a way that could only be described as an expression of pure love. Made me an instant fan.
I've spent my life searching for a certain sound.I have spent countless hours and dollars doing it. Maybe I was in a record shop on rainy days for 8 hours discovering or watching performers on stage but I think I have just reached my journeys end with Bill.
I'm home now.
check out the ginger baker trio ramblin thats where i met bill through ginger
That transition at 14:28 holy moly what a switch! The use of that single distorted tone over the harmonics, brilliant!
Excellent & unique. I have to say that Rudy Royston REALLY shines. Man, what an elegant drummer. This is what it sounds like when ensemble members LISTEN to each other while they play. Very creative.
This music fills me with happiness. What a wonderful moment.
When I've seen Bill Frisell live, it has always been like watching an accountant walk on stage and then blowing everyone away with his guitar playing.
Amazing performance. Thank you, gentlemen! And many thanks to Claudia Englehart for capturing the pristine, dynamic sound! Shoutout to the video crew as well.
This is just beautiful (not in a kitch sense :) ) - great band playing, and fantastic players; drumming with tremendous clarity. Thanks for sharing this precious documentation!
So delightful. That drummer has some serious touch
Cool. I saw Frisell in concert and Rudy Royston absolutely stole the show. Blew the music wide open. Frisell was grinning ear to ear.
Fantastic! Frisell fan. Have heard him in Buffalo, NY and Newport Jazz Fest. Listening on Martin Logan Motion 40 loudspeakers, this is the best engineered RUclips concert I've ever hear. Warm, detailed upright bass thump, clear, round guitar, and crystalline, shimmering drum kit.
Bill and Thomas are a musical pair made in heaven, -both amazingly sweet personalities as well!
Beautiful ! A cherished moment of dream in those dark crazy times.
Thank you gentlemen.
My guitar hero. A Masterful musician, along with his band.
See Bill Frisell play at least once in your life. He is unlike any other guitarist that I have ever heard. His versions of
"Your Cheatin' Heart" & "A Hard Rain's Gonna Fall" are epic must-hears.
I saw him with a friend at Space in Evanston and never forgot it. He made me cry.
I like to say that beyond everything, Bill Frisell seems to be a great guy.
yea honestly his performances out in front of his or someones house during covid all wearing masks outside with everyone 20 feet apart it really rubbed me the wrong way but i guess if your in the main stream you have to follow the main stream guidances paid science is our enemy
@@jonathanfrieze8497 Go and pay a visit to your local hospital and tell them all about it.
@@jonathanfrieze8497 Why, why, why do you use an excellent concert to stir up political trouble? Can you not restrain yourself?
This makes me smile so much. The level of listening and group interaction is beautiful and not as easy as they make it look!
Grandissimi 👏👏👏🎶🎶🙏❤️🥁
Today is a great RUclips day. Bill Frisell is incomparable
They are many jazz greats that are incomparable.
@@chrisbatson3402 So ? xD I wait for the list
@@julos71 Pat Martino / John Coltrane / Miles Davis / Wes Montgomery / Charlie Parker / Bill Frisell / Joe Pass etc..
@@julos71 Grant Green, George Benson, John McLaughlin, John Scofield, Mike Stern, Sonny Sharrock, etc.
Love Bill.
@@chrisbatson3402 Thanks for the list. I will discover them with my Spotify ;)
Natural flow of sensations and textures. Great musicianship of this three gentlemans.
I love listening to Bill and his bands every time. This great trio here reminds me of another one with Bill on guitar - the Ginger Baker Trio.
Wow! You're totally right, just listened and it does absolutely. Thanks for introducing me.
@@mosstet Falling off the roof was the album called, with Charlie Haden on bass. Was voted as one of the best jazz albums that year.
Bill Frishel forever young and best performing his music. Bravo!!!
So positive , optimistic , different kind of reality than we all live in these days ....and that makes Bill's music that much more unique.
Some musicians make you groove; Bill Frisell makes you breathe.
Real art played by real artists , thanks MASTER!!
Well, Rudy Royston is a new favorite drummer, Ill probably listen to this 500,000,000,000,000 times over the next few decades
7:55 the groove starts heating up a bit, and they are all so Zen, with such economy of movement and no hammy stage manner. It's so great to watch people playing at this level of control. Rudy certainly seems to be a magician up there--what you see and what you hear almost don't make sense, he's so cool.
Nicely said! Really a treat to watch
Beautiful! Love Rudy too, so creative, subtle, non intrusive. What a vibe!
The decorator of spaces - Maestro Bill
Bill is like a glass of good red wine....stunning musician, awesome guitar player....
Rudy sounds great on the drums. Great touch. That Canopus kit and cymbals are harmonious as well.
Great drumming, amazing drum tuning and wonderfully sounding cymbals.
AGREED
BORING and UNmusical.@@Poppafunkband
Outstanding on all the players parts. I can't believe what a great touch the drummer has with his sticks. Perfection. Most would have to play with brushes to accomplish his understated but playful feel.
A master class in intonation. All three players. Wow.
People have already said it, but Rudy Royston is such a sensitive drummer. He's playing with sticks, rather than brushes, but he's coaxing all of these various rim tones out of the snare and toms, plus somehow getting a light touch on the cymbals. Just a tour de force.
Really liking the guitar tone here. Almost like a 60's hippie rock tone here and there.
Bill has taken a step away from his beloved Telecasters and picked up one of the incredible Collings C-35's. Just amazing guitars- they're the darlings of the US guitar industry.
1 + 1 + 1 = 1000 with musicians like these three- understated perfection, but breathtakingly fresh & exciting at the self-same time, just heavenly
Age is just a number...go Bill.
"Strange Meeting"...inmense sound....infinite colours...L❤ve that song.
Ho potuto ascoltare, più o meno, lo stesso concerto lo scorso mercoledí a Lugo di Ravenna, ed è stato realmente fantastico. Grandissimo!
I was able to hear, more or less, the same concert last Wednesday in Lugo di Ravenna, and it was really fantastic. Great!
Such a historian of defining/reminding us what is Americas folk art/music.
Agreed. People think Dylan exemplifies Americana. My opinion differs.
Just wow! The chemistry between the three musicians makes for such an exciting set. Bill Frisell bridges the gaps between many styles of music. Thanks for posting.
painting with sound....wonderful!
Strange Meeting is one of my favorites... Love it! Seeing Bill in Philly next weekend..
Sweet, different, well played, quaint effects for a reason and with great effect, playful, smiling, funny, entertaining, wonderful, unique, masterful. And I mean all three musicians! This is just the time when one should use the word fantastic. I would say both transcendental and exciting, both poetic and funny. Relaxed and present in the moment. It may just not get any better. This has a lot of Thelonius Monk in it, some Baccarach, and blue jazz, and Debussy, and even some Zappa and what not. This guy knows all and more about the guitar and how to use a loop pedal, in his own originally sweet way. I hear sounds I never heard before, and they make me smile! Top genius!
Heard them at CGI Rochester International Jazz Festival last night in the Temple, an old auditorium in downtown Rochester with sun pouring through 10 feet high stained glass windows - very cool.
I absolutely love this. Every single player is amazing. Thank you for being!!!!!
I don't know why but this youtube video is the best Bill Frisells performans to me. I can't stop watcing/listening it again and again.
Bill Frisell is an amazing player who evokes mood with his melodies. Thank you for this as the audio is impeccable.
Wild and crazy Bill ! All those gadgets and tonal electrics ! A very softly presented jazz trio !
A drummer that truly listens, beautiful!
But he is not having eye contact with his partners...
@@GuillermoCarrasco He's listening. Would you say the same thing about Art Tatum?
@@GuillermoCarrasco That's because he's focused on making great music. Eye contact is necessary to know when to transition when something is unclear, like when you add someone to the mix or are playing a composition you haven't practiced or even played as a group in a long time.
The telephone is an example of having a conversation without seeing the person.
@@newyorkfilharmonik110 Maybe you are a Frisell-first-timer. He was obviously trying to make eye contact as always.
@@GuillermoCarrasco I didn't say he didn't make eye contact, someone else did. I was trying to establish the fact that eye contact is not necessary to make music if you're familiar with the music and musicians.
Chill with Bill... & friends. Always works for me.
That was a very nice slide into What The World Needs Now.
Absolute gold, start to finish ❤
This drummer is GREAT 😊
I can't add anything to the already plentiful comments. This is the best of the best Bill combos. I love trios; I love this trio.
The trio came to the Blue Mountains over here in NSW Australia and raised the roof. This is sooo good. What a lovely sounding recording, well done who ever is responsible!
Hi Bruce, do you know a trumpet player from your region called Bruce Johnson? Really nice guy, he was my PhD supervisor some years ago. Best...
I don’t know him. Is he from Victoria or New South Wales?
@@brucereid6465 well, that I don't know. Does the BM stretch to Victoria?
Here’s the answer to the question, “does the Blue Mountains stretch to Victoria? For those who don’t know Australian geography, Victoria is the state south of New South Wales, where Sydney and the Blue Mountains are situated. The Blue Mountains is a part of the Great Dividing Range, a series of mountain ranges, ridges, and plateaus. The Great Dividing Range is also called the Eastern Highlands. It is the world’s third longest mountain range. Starting from Queensland’s Cape York Peninsula in the north down south to New South Wales it bends westward to Victoria, finally dissolving in the Grampians. That’s 3,700 kilometres of rugged mountainous terrains and highlands.
@@brucereid6465 Thank you!...
Drums add such a thoughtful texture to Bills ideas.
Exquisite ❤
I'm amazed by the way the picture behind describes the music.
yes i just thought the exact same thing!!!
Blissfulness and pure.
Bill Frisell kept us going during the pandemic, in all of his explorations and styles. Been listening to him for over 25 years, but listened to him extensively during 2020, 2021, etc. Saw him in early, March 2020 at the Boulder Theater with Harmony. A few month before that with Julian Lage. Then the world shut down. He did a bunch of shows ( streaming only ) at the Village Vanguard during the shut down period. But, really glad I stumbled onto this show. Seeing this trio in a few weeks in Denver. Will be magical. This is a terrific show. Thanks for uploading it!
I didn’t use to get Bill Frisell, now I get it.
With this outstanding concert my week began. Frisell is my favorite guitarist since I discovered him on the ECM label. Thank you Maestro
Thomas Morgan is a very much underrated Upright bassist! He is a silent killer! Great performance! Greeting from Sri Lanka!
Agree with you 100%, i will be in Sri Lanka in january/february
Greetings from France (Olivier DBassist/Surfer)
He's been the perfect complement for Bill since they've met. Hand in glove, kindred spirits
Olivier Bouisse that’s good to hear. You are most welcome to have a great tropical experience! Have a wonderful stay!
Joe Shmoe exactly. Their KEPX session is also fantastic! Their instrument conversations are above and beyond!
He is not underrated
Amazing. The music, the feel, every note...everything is just sweet and perfect. Bill, Thomas and Rudy: thank you. Really.
100 minutes, flow like creek water. thank you!
telonious monk of guitar
Very peaceful, mindful music.
Thnak you so much for uploading this concert ! This trio is so Zen ...
Frissell magic!!🤗
What else can you write in capital letters... I've probably watched/heard this concert 20 times... an ear massage at its finest
