“Serious Imitation for a while” yes it behooves us to do this. It provides so much discovery, understanding and jumping off points for one’s own creativity.
a super insight into the musical mind of one of our greatest improvisers of today! when I'm in New York I always try to catch him live.... Thanks for posting!
Thanks for recording and posting this video. Joel is the man and very generous to share his wisdom. This is what the Internet is all about man, sharing and helping others - thank you!
This masterclass is so incredibly valuable! Joel Frahm is one of my favorite musicians and to hear all this advice from him is so useful and amazing! That story about Johnny Griffin literally made me cry because it was so beautiful
I'm so thankful to you for recording/posting that!
Same
Thanks for sharing - I love Joe's playing and I love him even more now as a teacher, what a guy!

Mvp for recording this and sharing it
This is a great video by a master musician
Thank you very much for this video! Joel is my mentor even though I've seen him just through youtube.
I appreciate this post. I heard the full thing. Lots of gold in here
What an amazing masterclass!
Joel's solos can be original but never "shapeless". He is not only technically very proficient but so musically exciting.
crazy creative.
This is gold
Thank you so much for sharing that ! 🙏🙏
Joel Frahm is a BEAST!
"Live in D flat."
"Start anywhere."
29:11-29:28 one of the most beautiful spontaneous melodies ever created
Thanks for posting this. Wonderful!
Thank you a lot
Awesome musician 👍
45:50 It's like using a new person's name. The first time or two using it has to be intentional. Invariably it becomes natural.
"Melodies and music is clay"
very insightful ....
man this is awesome! Anyone know the ballad Joel plays at 49:30? Know the tune but can't place the name.
Someone to Watch Over Me (Gershwin)
Jazzer Caster “Someone to Watch Over Me” by George Gershwin

how bout advice on importance of staying fit for longevity
Frederick Horn -
I know I’m not fit. Are you trying to be snide about my weight? I’m aware I’m out of shape. Your comment is unkind at the least.
Have some respect Fred!! The cats a master and I a tremendous source of inspiration to oh so many.
That's what you take away? Everything he said is mute becuase the man's overweight? Joel is one of the best tenormen of our times man! Sheesh...
you're the man joel. Learning from you everyday. Hope to see you in florida sometime soon!
He remarks about needing to work on his weight. You should learn to listen seriously. Its the first thing i tell my students
This is gold
