Beautiful playing all around here. Thanks for uploading. Looking at the comments, it’s astonishing the proportion of hate and small-mindedness in the young jazz community. Maybe it speaks to the felt scarcity of opportunities in jazz that they feel compelled to tear people down.
Great opportunity, Aris! Nice playing. WMU does a fabulous job bringing in world-class pros to mentor students. Enjoy your time there! I'm a proud WMU Jazz Studies alumnus.
Great technical proficiency. I’m not sure I agree with his initial statement of the melody. It sounds like he either doesn’t know or doesn’t care about the melody and lyrics. A true lover of music and standards keeps the lyrics and melody running through his head for the phrasing and melodic integrity. It’s honoring the composer and the lyricist before you create your own melodies over their song. Having played with some of the best from Chrhistleib to Plas Johnson to Ricky Woodard to Bob Shepard to Bob Cooper and others, I find the bigger the ego the less musical the player.

I think he’s just changing the inflection and rhythm of the melody, it’s very sonny Rollins like. Are you inferring that is complex playing comes from a place of ego rather than serving the music?
This is such a ridiculous comment. 1. True lover of music understands different players bring different elements. You don't have to like what every player brings. 2. If you've ever watched even a single interview with Chris, there is no ego. 3. Comparisons between the greats is pointless, and is only how amateurs think. 4. The amount of work to play like this is astronomical, so to think it's not intentional is again outing yourself. You don't have to like it though.

You are wrong
you are wrong
overrated player,James Carter way better than him.
Delusional commenter
@@mrlegitomaki1651 go and listen to james carter first
@@ongtengkee9225I have. James Carter is spectacular in his own right (for different reasons), but Chris Potter is in a league of his own.
@@emmetfettig9196 Carter stunned a lot of older sax players,that is enough.
