So glad to hear them together! Loved Herbie in the 1980's when I first discovered him...found Gulda later, if you can believe it, as I was classical pianist for a short while.
This is of course Herbie´s territory,having played this tune regularly with Miles, he is particularly relaxed and self-assured, unlike on "Night and Day" from the same concert. However Gulda contributes to the music in original and unortodox fashion and is able to hold his own even here. Amazing musician!
Very imaginative jazz! I think the "swing feel" was not so important on that interpretation,(although Herbie swings a lot and Goulda swings a little bit less). The most important thing is these guys playing with harmonies and rhythms like kids discovering new toys! Great moments, thank you for posting
Fantastic! What a great song, and it was my first time hearing Gulda and I LOVED HIM. Nice camera work, how many cameras did you have!? Surprise ending-really sweet and informative too. Thanks for sharing.
Unlike "Night and Day" clip where Gulda totally dominated the proceedings, here he and Herbie actually made some music together. And, might I add, Gulda is still the only classical virtuoso that could swing and speak the jazz language.
Hi Rick, thank you for your comment, not sure what you meant by "herbie was playing within himself" perhaps you meant "playing with himself?".....(:)).Seriously, Herbie should know "all blues" by now having played it zillions of times with Miles and elsewhere. I think he probably called it and Gulda probably called "Night and Day" Given that most jazz people have never even heard of Gulda, whereas Herbie is an idol to most younger jazz musicians, I find it funny that Gulda beats Herbie at his own game. I cannot imagine the disaster if Herbie had to play a classical piece with Gulda. Sorry, I know it's not a competition, but I can't help comparing them. Cheers!
Gulda est un grand pianiste....classique. Son improvisation est assez peu créative, beaucoup de clichés blues, mais çà swingue quand même pas mal. Sur le plan de la créativité, il y a le maitre...Herbie ,et l'élevé appliqué...GULDA.Mais s'ils jouaient du Mozart, les rôles seraient inversés.et Herbie aurait l'air d'un élève appliqué. Normal.çà n'est pas le même métier. Personne n'improvise comme Keith Jarrett mais Jarrett n'existe plus face a Barenboim. s'il jouent tous 2 de la musique classique. C'est la vie !!
Wonderful musical conversation between 2 masters of their instrument.

The Great Legend Herbie Hancock not assured at the piano. 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Herbie is magnificent on the tune and swings if with soul.

La mágia pura del blues convertida en deliciosos pianos que suenan al unísono, como uno solo como un solo pensamiento, como una sola melodía Bravo !!!
Two piano masters ¡¡¡
Sublime !
I wish I could play like that!!
Two brilliant geniuses!
Brilliant.

Gulda's such a fresh cat, way to keep an open mind!

Quel originalité ce virtuose de Gulda. Quel duo avec Herbie Hancock. Dommage que le piano de Herbie soit faux. Quel plaisir quand même.
bonne oreille!!
