what's happening with the sound recently. sounds like there is some noise suppression thing happening, but it almost chokes the words
Yes I noticed almost a lisp when Peter speaks. Also with Adam, but less.
Me too. I thought Peter M had a cold. I hope the sound gets better. Really like this channel.
Yeth, definitely thum lithping going on!
Yes, especially Peter’s mic
I think it`s an overdone de-esser and limiter
long time listener/ viewer, thank you guys! i noticed on the past couple episodes it sounds like your audio might be getting a bit overly de-essed. maybe its just me as an audio engineer finding it's mildly distracting, still amazing content though!
Ye it sounds horrible
Bill Charlap's piano playing is incredibly nuanced, meticulously crafted yet brimming with the spontaneity of improvisation. Each note, each chord voicing, each carefully chosen silence resonates with a depth of meaning that belies its seeming improvisational nature. His accompaniment of singers is a masterclass in musical collaboration, similar to exquisite art songs for piano and voice.
I'm so glad YHI dedicated an entire episode to this modern master. Bill Charlap seamlessly fuses modern flair with classic bebop phrasing. His intricate approach to the piano breathes new life into the American Songbook-adding fresh dimension to well-known classics. Charlap navigates the delicate balance between tradition and contemporary, with impeccable technique and soulful interpretations. GALA!
George Colligan is a name that needs to be mentioned. He always brings a freshness to his playing and also puts out great albums frequently.
So glad to see y'all do a whole episode on Bill Charlap. He's been one of my favorite pianists lately. Makes great records.
Zzzzzz....I don't get him and never got him. I guess if you still think standards are cool...
@@J3unGoh wow. Look what we have here: someone is too cool for standards lol obnoxious snob. You don’t like him because you don’t have good taste in music and you don’t know what makes a good musician. For example, Tyshawn Sorey, an amazing drummer who mostly creates in the free jazz/classical space, heard Aaron Diehl (who’s from a similar pianistic cloth as Charlap) and didn’t raise his brow at Diehl because he’s straight ahead. He heard the genius in his playing and decided to work with him. And together, they have made a handful of incredible projects. Projects i didn’t even know Diehl was capable of.
I saw Bill Charlap with Jon Faddis at William Paterson here in NJ back in early 2020. What a unique combination, to say the least. But the genius of the both of them. Mind-blowing stuff. Both men quite humble and very intelligent. And Jon was actually quite funny. When I thought he was going to say something deep to my young son, he actually said "Hey Jordan, who's the prettiest girl in your class?" 🤣
Love the video, seems like a lot of other people are slightly distracted by the overly de-essed audio. Great content as always though
"You have the look but not the skills!" Ha haaa! Love the banter between these two.
Amazing guys, thank you! I remember seeing Bill here in Toronto, 2004 as I recall. He is an amazing raconteur and I still relate some of the epic stories that he told. Musicians seem to collect these crazy happenings. Humour is the coin of our realm - we certainly don't do it for the money. I think that humour comes out in his playing as a kind of laissez-faire, a beautifully controlled freedom. Real mastery.
Adam “all” at 1:16 sounds like the super Mario world “stage cleared” sound
I do smile a lot all the time with you guys. great podcast. my favorite
Saw Bill when he had a short residency with the Maestro, Ron Carter, in New York a few years back. It wasn't the trio, but I have seen the trio as well, many years earlier. Always such a treat.
Seeing him on my anniversary in a month, super excited
Hey audio engineers at Open Studio - what’s up with Peter’s audio? Sounds like someone used the de-esser a bit too much.
i'm into it :)) hehe
Yes we are aware of it - thanks for the note. We recorded this episode and the last one in a batch and the de-esser was on the frontend in the preamp we used so we couldn't adjust it in post. Thanks for baring with us stay tuned for our next episodes featuring sibilance!
@@YoullHearIt i think it's fun. we love you guys. thank you
Bill Charlap has the most gorgeous chord voicings.
Great show. I think when jazz players become so good at their craft they stop being musicians and start being artists.
I just saw Ari Hoenig’s trio with Ben Tiberio and Gadi Lehavi, and I have to say I think they’re one of the most severely underrated transformative trios going around today
The most revolutionary trio of last 25 years is EST for sure!
Khruangbin. If you don't know, you should.
Ahh come on they are fine but certainly not revolutionary
Khruangbin I mean
Dang, thats the level of playing that has moved from the stink face to the rare and highest level of the frozen face.
so playful...so fun...so musical....so excellent. Thanks for this!!!
Love the show! You guys should talk about David Hazeltine, pretty similar to Charlap. Basically on the other side of the coin. NPR had a good article comparing the 2 but it was published quite a while ago.
YES ABSOLUTE MASTERS THEY DESERVE SO MUCH MORE!!
Stardust the music of Hoagy Carmichael is one of the greatest jazz albums of all time. That bass sound is just everything
Speaking of trios, is there any plan to offer Open Studio content on different approaches to the organ vs piano?
Love this episode!! Also it sounds like you guys are both wearing Invisalign 😂 I’m guessing something to do with the audio editing
yeah like someone just had some dental work, and still recovering..
I wonder why Bill hasn't won any Grammys....he's been running with the best of em outhere
He won a Grammy for his record with Tony Bennett in 2015 but he certainly deserves more.
Cos Bill don't write no tunes. Also...did you know that Bill did Sunday brunch dates in restaurants for like decades? Yeah...in NYC. Decades. Look it up.
Sounds like the de-esser was set too extreme for this one. The Donald Duck effect 😂
Fergus McCreadie's trio is definitely one to watch!
I owe the You'll Hear It folks an apology. I checked out Bill Charlap over the past couple of days at the Rochester International Jazz festival, and thought he was absolutely on fire (solo, and trio). The live performances were much more intense than what I have seen of his work on youtube, as highly skilled as that is. I thought to myself "I wonder why Open Studio never talks about this guy--he's great!" And here I am.
Yes, Bill Charlap--Peter Washington--Kenny Washington. That's the modern NYC Rhythm section, right there for those in the know! I went to see Johnny Griffin with the TRIO before I left NYC and Kenny Washington saw me in the front row, pointed, and said, "who's this JAMF in the front row? You know what JAMF stands for? Jive A$$ Mother F%^KER." Then he laughed and we had a quick back and forth. I will always remember that moment and brag about it with pride. There is no other drummer out in NYC quite like Kenny Washington, and there is no other trio like the NYC Rhythm Section. Sorry, Peter--but I side with Adam here--end stop. No one else plays with that hook up like the NYC Rhythm Section--that's why EVERYONE that comes to NYC wants to play with them. Mr. Space Man, OUT. Oh yeah, when y'all gonna do my request for Hip Hop and BAM? Do I gotta leave another voicemail ;)
Sibilants not working for me. Sounds like PM has both a cold and a lisp. Maybe its my player here.
No i have the same haha. Even adam sounds like that so i think its the audio
Yeah, I think someone got a bit too enthousiastic with their de-esser during the mixing of the audio@@thebotmonkey
It's quite notable on peter and somewhat on adam, way to much eq lol
It started with the previous episode. I wasn't going to say anything, because it's a podcast, but yeah I noticed a change. Thought it might be Peter took up snuff habit, or was collecting acorns in his cheeks preparing for winter... but it's probably a new plug-in they're using...
Hey thanks for the catch! Yes we are aware of it - we recorded this episode and the last one in a batch and the De-esser was unfortunately on the frontend in the preamp we used so we couldn't adjust in post. Thanks for watching anyway - stay tuned for our next episodes featuring sibilance.
E.S.T. by far. I wonder whether Peter and Adam actually know them since it was European trio, but it was revolutionary and unique. Check out their "Live in Hamburg" album, it is mindblowing.
some reason you folks never cover the E.S.T.?
Great trio that I've followed for quite a while now but I wouldn't describe them as "revolutionary"
something different? The Rodecaster or whatever it was has been replaced with an AKAI LPD8mk2 or whatever it is - presumably you're doing the control directly with OBS or somethign now?
I love You’ll Hear It, but can’t really hear it today 😂 Something up with the mics? Especially Peter’s
Those Impulse! orange chairs in the background, might be new? Mayyyybe?
Tyshawn Sorey Trio!
Peter's blue cup hasn't moved for several episodes
Too much de-esser in the recording :) but the content is great as always! Thank you!
Did you guys have some sort of weird filter on for this episode? Peter sounds like he's had dental work or novicaine 😀
Sounds like you have a de esser on
Nice pick , musically
Still sounds like Peter and Adam bit their tongues here
Adam has a new - red - keyboard?
Somebody bumped the mixing board or something, voice seems less clear than usual
Do they have a lisp?
De-sser on Peter's mic?
Adam Mane
Yo the mics are messed up a little, it sounds like you guys have a speaking illness… i think it doesnt detect the S’s fully
How about EST? Esborn Svenson. Be a little international.
what's with the lisp Peter ?
Well Charlap's wife Renné Rosnes is no slouch. Remember her?I wish you either one of you could go visit them or have dinner with them.
The Trio in American Psycho?
Some crazy de-essing going on?
Sorry, just looked at the comments. Glad I'm not losing my mind, lol. Love you guys! Great episode, Charlap trio is amazing.
Khruangbin, motherfucker.
They sound like all the best jazz rock from the past including Weather Report.
Also...tricot (Yvette Young's band). She's on the Jeff Beck level, no lie. I can only imagine what depth she will achieve in her 90's. Limitless.
Charlap is just an interpreter. He sounds the same no matter what.
Renee's trios in the 1990's was badass. I saw her many times and it was a joy and her husband was always there no matter what. I love Renee even now. I hope Renee doesn't think she's lower than Charlap. That would be a travesty. Frankly...I don't get it.
Paul Motian trio with Frissell and Lovano, man. I saw 'em a few times when I lived in Jersey back in the day. Let's just say I never forgot the experience and they weren't playing shit. I actually saw Lovano fucking wake up from his solo, he was so out of it and into it. I saw his eyes, man. He was almost embarrassed he went so deep, like he was trying to work something out in his past. RIP Motian. He was the best.
Brad Mehldau with the boys from San Mateo (Grenadier and Ballard are cats I played with back in the day) is great. Brad's the shit, man. He was the whole point of the Joshua Redman group back then.
Finally ANYTHING Corey Henry in small format is great. His worship work brings me to tears. True man of God that I can't explain. He's a treasure.
But Charlap....I'm a pianist and I ain't see shit. I wish Hyman was still alive. Charlap trying to be like him, you know, but without the stride and soundtracks.
Finally...any trio with Monty Alexander. I still learn shit listening to him even after 50 years discovering him.
Maybe you guys dig Charlap because he's basically a chord guy and you guys dig chords. I don't know. ZZzzzz...
It's always a pity when snobbery rears its ugly head in jazz. You can't be cool until you stop trying.
