    Who knew, sitting in and covering Colbert's gig so humbly, that Jon is one of the greatest players on the level of Ahmad Jamal, and other jazz greats?

    • @susanwallace2258
      @susanwallace2258 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Wow! Ahmad Jamal. I haven't heard that name in a long time. I wonder if he's on TH-cam somewhere....

    • @Woody-2837

      I owned an Ahmad Jamal (vinyl of course) album. He was great.

      Exactly. He was just waiting on the Lord to bring him forth & expose him to the world. He's ANOINTED.🔥🔥🔥❤️❤️❤️

    The musician Jon Batiste is fantastic. His piano playing crosses Jazz, Blues, R &B, and some Gospel. His music is soothing, and uplifting. God bless you. Keep doing what you do best. The Love Story with you and your wife is so very beautiful. You’re both remarkable people. ❤❤❤❤❤Love

    You can really tell the difference between pop stars and those that really took the time to study their craft before going on the world stage. Nothing wrong with either, but it's so refreshing to see the latter in a world dominated with the former.

  • @NamelessAzn388
    @NamelessAzn388 7 ปีที่แล้ว +338

    My favorite part is when at 3:45 when he makes a conscious decision to play something different than where his hands were going to decide to play at that instant. That is the beauty of Jazz.

    • @gtruft7137
      @gtruft7137 7 ปีที่แล้ว +35

      I think he was about to make a mistake and he corrected it in his mind while playing in front of a crowd which is even more impressive

    • @conancat
      @conancat 7 ปีที่แล้ว +17

      Fabio Facchini I think it's the same chord, but he decided to play a different pattern than what he first intended... I think. Still, he's amazing and wicked talented!

    Love Jon Batiste! Can't get enough of this musical treasure.

    • @candygardner4440
      @candygardner4440 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Me neither!!! He's completely awesome inspiring. When he plays it sounds like angels dancing on the keys. I think he's totally inspired of the Lord. In fact I know he is! This is what the anointing looks like🙌🙌🙌 I hope I live next door to him in heaven so I can hear him worshiping the Lord and practicing.

    At 3:57, guitar dude aproves. I love it when other professional musicians are astounded.

    • @joytothewrld
      @joytothewrld 7 ปีที่แล้ว +9

      Sebastián Vélez me too! I recommend you go watch his piano "battle" with Simon Helberg on Stephen Colbert. At the 6:12 mark you'll see the drummer with the cowboy hat shaking head in approval! It's really cool!

    • @jansport0409
      @jansport0409 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      What a nice find. Thanks! I didn't know Howard could do that.

  • @Coltranized
    @Coltranized 6 ปีที่แล้ว +60

    That moment at 3m47s is striking: Batiste consciously calculating which voicing he was going to perform next. That's versatility and virtuosity, to be able to play any musical color you wish to, at any time, giving the music a breathing, quality.

    • @alcubierrevj

    • @krochelle2619
      @krochelle2619 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      He truly is one of those "light ppl" like Prince, Karen Carpenter, Brian Wilson, Donny Hathaway, Aretha, Jiminy, SRV, Whitney, etc. Such lights were commonly snuffed out bc they couldn't create freely in the 50s-60s, especially, so they had to go early...imo anyway.c

    - The articulation, the dynamics, the styling, the clarity, the musical sentiment, the GORGEOUS musical RECONSIDERATION (@ 3:45)
