Yoooo... Samora's solo on The Walk completely blew my mind... I have no idea how he could even imagine moving the song in that direction. He took a really repetitive and confined melody, and completely transformed it. Simply beautiful. Love the whole band; everyone's outstanding, as always.
I wanna say this performance is what made me appreciate jazz. At the very least this group/Scott. Wasn’t there but certainly on the bucket list to experience this live.
wow! In the last number, in the drums and percussion it feels as if they were a stampede of angry elephants 🐘 that are going against something and the voice with great fury and authority of their leader is heard letting them know not to stop for anything , in this case Scott's trumpet sounds like that leader of the elephant herd 🐘🔥🔥
@@lagrandefille Art is beauty. Just think of the flute players beauty as the first layer of beauty and the least important. And the music keeps adding on filling in the frame.
Agreed my man. This is definitely a unique sound that I’ll will be listening more to from now on. I’ve never heard a jazz hip-hip fusion that retains both the complex narrative from jazz and flow from hip-hop to the decree that these artists do.
Honestly…Christian Scott brought me around to Jazz. Not that I was ever against it. His stuff is beautiful and intensely emotional. Like walking through a dream. Makes me think about how most people can identify the same color in general but they experience it differently. However it is seen it’s incredible.
A jazz fan from the 1950s, when I look up my heroes online all too many of the have two dates following their names. Can the music survive? I ask myself. Yes! And beautifully so!
You wouldn't believe how big jazz is around the world. Tokyo has a scene, Copenhagen, Munich, Paris, NY, everywhere. Jazz will never die. Check your nearest jazz festival, there's probably a jazz jam session too to watch amateurs play with professionals.
I was at this show! 4th row. Absolutely incredible performance. So cool to see these musicians nonverbally communicate with each other through their music. The amount of trust that they have in each other is unreal.
After Elena is showcased (1:06:45), it's like the Second Line funeral crescendos. The spirit of "Last Chieftain" seems to cross the river and ascend. The entire tribe wants to go atral with him, but must fall back. For now. I was moved!
Listening to Christian Scott's music brings me a unique kind of joy, and listening to him talk has a similar affect on me. He is so clear in his thinking and completely genuine. Refreshing to see
Raw~Trina, Christian Scott taking the world by storm, straight out of Louisiana. Converting water into rhythm, no levee can hold. Causing a flood of sound across the lands, uniting us all.
Thought Miles and Coltrane were kings... Well, indeed they were. But here, Scott plays something so fresh, so new, so spiritual, sth far beyond words, with such an amazing touch I can't believe.
When I first learned of this young brother [probably last year 2017]... I initially got the impression that he was Afrikan [perhaps largely in part due to the name - Christian Scott aTunde Adjuah]. I didn't know until very recently that he's a Berklee alum from New Orleans. | He pays homage to Dizzy Gillespie with his upturned horn bell, but he's really got the chops to flex in the "Jazz Major Leagues."
Hearing the song where the opening piano touched a broken place in me and honestly made me cry so hard. His music is really healing. I thank THE MOST HIGH GOD for blessing you and allowing you to operate in your gift. Thank you for your contribution to saving people who feel lost. Thank you for giving back to our community. Thank you for keeping jazz alive and recreating it. I'm a new fan and I can't help but think of the theory that Einstein and Coltrane used the same physics theory. When I listen to your work in particular that comes to mind, and it makes me feel interconnected to what was and what is and what will be. It's all through the grace of God. God bless you ima hit you up and find a way to send you a hand written letter.

Full disclosure: I am absolutely obsessed with this concert. I listen to it multiple times a week. It's not just the music that I love; it's every detail. Christian's introduction is wonderful and thought provoking, the cinematography is excellent, the sound design is top notch, and the band's outfits are fantastic. I especially love Christian's gold necklace and bracelets, which serve as an apt reminder of black royalty. Also, let's give credit to the Pinderhughes! Both of them are superbly talented, practically masters of their respective instruments, which is hard to fathom when you think about how young they are. Not to suggest the other band members aren't just as excellent, because they are, but I think some of the solos played by the Pinderhughes duo really highlight their musical acumen
My Brother, you breathed into that 🎺 in the US and I heard it all the way here in the Southern most part of Afrika. I heard you my Brother, I feel you. The music is Spiritual for sure Brother Atunde Adjuah. Haven't enjoyed such good music in a while. 👊 Sound the 🎺
@M C I see where you're coming from man, but I also want you to understand that most white jazz musicians I know have a healthy respect for the roots of the music and the black musicians that continue to play it. I don't want to go into a play by play of my favorite white jazz musicians vs your favorite black musicians, it doesn't matter. As long as there's respect for the music, it just doesn't matter man. I'll concede though, when there is a LACK of respect for the music, your position makes perfect sense.
@M C damn right, and peruvian and Colombian and so on and so forth, whitewashing everything. But hey as soon as you're noticing you're racist not them for stealing. Reprobate mind? Sounds about white.
"If I can show the marriage between their cultural expression, then I'm showing the marriage between their cultures, and these people - because this is the idea that I hold close to my heart, which is that all people can get along together, and be together." Christian Scott Atunde Adjuah, 2018.
interesting... I thought the groove was good, but the notes seemed slightly too random for me. I think that's what he was going for though, maybe my musical understanding is just not advanced enough.
Miles Davis was on the verge of creating a new form of jazz before he passed. Christian Scott's music is that new form of jazz that Miles was on the verge of creating, or maybe even another level. AMAZING!
@@lagrandefille She's still relatively young. I think she's like 23? Either way these are some great forward thinking musicians to grow up playing with. Not that her skills aren't already incredible.

I want friends that can appreciate this
EXAAAACCTLYYYYYYY! I would HAVE to love them!!!
Agreed. So hard for me to find friends who thrill to music like this. I find it intoxicating.
Right
That’s crazy! This is what I love about New Orleans! Even with all the bad, the good far outweighs it!
Me Too
This is half a decade old already and it's still the future of jazz
Half a decade seems a short time.
Elena...such a gem..wow!
I'm an old school lover of jazz, it's good seeing these young cats taking it seriously.
He's one of the last, sir

Yes so much. Christian Scott and his players are tremendously talented! There music tells a heartfelt story.

Legend
What’s the first tune that played in the background during the intro?
Tomas Ponce | the reckoning, it’s another tune by him
The piano solo in "The Walk" it's amazing!
The look the gave each other after the walk. They knew they did something special there.
Samora killed that solo on "The Walk"
I was hypnotized by the drives he took, absolutely knackered me into a hypnosis !
I genuinely cannot get over this... It is too celestial.
Watched it 3 times alone tonight.
I love how much each member is into each other's solos
Elena Pinderhughes on "The Coronation Of X. aTunde Adjuah" it's too dope for this world
Yoooo... Samora's solo on The Walk completely blew my mind... I have no idea how he could even imagine moving the song in that direction. He took a really repetitive and confined melody, and completely transformed it. Simply beautiful. Love the whole band; everyone's outstanding, as always.
So true about Samora and the walk
Yeah just a beautiful solo the harmonic language and vocab he was killing.
Incredible talent
Oh, I love completely, amazing.
oh my GOD this solo. had a stank face this whole time.
One of the best performances I have seen in my life. Nothing else I can say because I am speechless. Bucket list to meet this genius. ❤🎵
I wanna say this performance is what made me appreciate jazz. At the very least this group/Scott. Wasn’t there but certainly on the bucket list to experience this live.
The Incredible thing about the Chief is his creation of Stretch Music. Modern Jazz embodied by the Greatest of our Time.
Chief Adjuah. Salute.
That flute player has got some major chops!! The rhythm section lays down a nice groove and she just flows over it. Very nice.
Yes she does. Such a shame she's not a regular with the group presently I believe.
Come on somebody!! Too much talent on one stage!
Have you heard of Humble G. Fiddla? Look him up on TH-cam?
wow! In the last number, in the drums and percussion it feels as if they were a stampede of angry elephants 🐘 that are going against something and the voice with great fury and authority of their leader is heard letting them know not to stop for anything , in this case Scott's trumpet sounds like that leader of the elephant herd 🐘🔥🔥
that flute player is so beautiful i want to cry
my profile pic is a pic of an elephant 🐘 Agreed my friend!
but why the hell a female musician should be first considered for her appearance and "feminine" qualities, are the male musicians evaluated like this?
@@lagrandefille Art is beauty. Just think of the flute players beauty as the first layer of beauty and the least important. And the music keeps adding on filling in the frame.
i was just looking for this comment
You got a problem, a Trump problem
All of his band members are just so talented
This is genius.
Never seen hip-hop and jazz blended together like this before.
If u are still interested u should listen to Snarky Puppy's "Binky"
Agreed my man. This is definitely a unique sound that I’ll will be listening more to from now on. I’ve never heard a jazz hip-hip fusion that retains both the complex narrative from jazz and flow from hip-hop to the decree that these artists do.
Search for Chris Dave, he really helped to spread out those beatd from J Dilla on Jazz.

That bass solo on West of the West tho... absurdly and utterly DOPE, from the beginning to the end!! Also love the funk vibe
Beautiful music, beautiful Elena playing beautifully the flute
I am still amazed...I've been listening to Mr. Christian Scott all morning, and I have one word to discribe this young amazing artist...Amazing X 3.
AWH RIGHT!!!
This is a musical masterpiece. I got the message loud and clear.We must listen to one another.Hear the calls of HUMANITY. Then LISTEN.Yahhhhh!
The music is so spiritually elevated, It heals, it profoundly does. Thank you all.
Corey fonville amazing jazz drummer his beats representing the modern jazz music these days
MR SCOTT PLAYS WITH A BEAUTIFUL BRIGHT TONE👊🏾
such amazing musicians. Elena's soloing is out of this world.
Every time I listen to this, I have something new to appreciate about it. This concert is unreal man
You can be cool, but you'll never be as cool as that bass player.
Challenge excepted
thats what a bass player would say ;)
That's my man Kris Funn. I remember when he started playing when he was in 9th grade. Just a monster.
@@sretaksonmi I used to play the trumpet with him and his brother, his dad was my first teacher, it makes me so happy to see his success
That solo man was ... god damm !!!
This music is...this music is extraordinary!...takes me to a special place where ALL is well...God bless Mr. Scott and the band!
exactly..it makes me cry....It makes me miss that special place......or to remind me that it does exist after all...
Honestly!!!!! 💥💥💥

They are making intelligent, deep, cool, fun, and exciting music. They are all awesome. But I'm digging the girl big time. She's amazing.
How? How am I hearing this for the first time!!! My faith in humanity and music has been restored. Roaring 20's, let's go!
Travis Russell oh it’s roaring alright Lol
Who needs a grammy when you have that jewelry. 😎
And the trumpet, and the band
I love this group! I was starting to think that jazz hadn't progressed any since Coltrane, but I see it is going forward again!
i love the faces the percussionist makes
too bad we cant actually hear him
I'm so glad my ears were blessed to hear this. Love it so much.
They all played splendidly but really, Samora gave me goosebumps. Woah... 👍🍻
31:00 is pure gold
I think Diaspora is one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard. The Walk is a close second.
The walk.... The ouch faces I pulled during Samora's solo and the stunts Scott displayed are borderline martial arts. Epically beautiful.

christian's re-entry an hour and 9 minutes in is mindblowing
This entire performance is unreal.
the WALK is true Fusion... love it, so many styles in it!
Christian Scott Has Always Impressed Me! Guy has skills
I think I love the Bassist and Drummer Flutist ...The Whole Ensemble
30:57 I wasn't expecting that 👀👀🔥🔥🥵
He mentions Polish folk songs as a source of his inspiration. Being Polish I am more than proud and feel privileged
We must Unite! Stay blessed.
wow that first solo of ellena...i'm breathless entranced taken away so....no words possible
She’s amazing
It was surely high falutin'.
"The Last Chieftain" is a beautiful piece of music that should be enjoyed by everyone from all corners of the musical spectrum
Samora's solo on the Last Chieftain...so melodically and rhythmically inventive...such power and passion...one of MANY highlights.

I cannot stop replaying 35:02. Samora went off! Even Christian had to give him that "gotdamn!" look!
OMG so true!!!
