Oscar - and i cannot stress this enough - Peterson.
0:56 Poor cameraman trying to predict where Peterson's hand will go...
he tried xD
😂😂
Why didn't he just look at the sheet music
@@Snitsie There is none
@@elliotgroff r/woosh
Total genius. This is when technique just becomes a by product. The guy could play anything he chose to rather than what he was limited to.
Playing improvised stride at 330 bpm is crazy
what makes it 330 bpm
It states the tempo at the beginning of the score. Yes you could write this same music at 115 bpm, but the walking bass notated as quarter notes is standard practice in jazz
This cat is off the chain!
at some parts hes closeer to 400!!!!
Damn, transcribing Oscar Peterson isn't the easiest thing to do... thank you Daan!
They haven't invented a speed camera fast enough yet to do that!
Let's be real, no one would be foolish enough to pay Oscar Peterson per note played.
Walking those tenths, I wish I had hands big enough to do that, the sound is incredible, so much bass but tenor at the same time in one chord!
Try sixths. They have a similar feel but don't require such large hands
@@dylan-kerry Yeah I do that but they lack the bass so badly that I hate them.
I see... I thought 6ths would account for the rich sound of the 12th without requiring the larger hand span but yes it doesn't have the same bass feel. @@PiotrBarcz
@@dylan-kerry You mean the 10th, 6ths are basically tenths without the root note which is what really gives them the deep and solid tone.
Yes sorry. When I was learning the piano I used to just assume that an octave was a 10th so what is a tenth must be a 12th. I still get a bit confused from time to time@@PiotrBarcz
I saw him in a bar in the early 70s and couldn't believe it! A great memory.
He plays against the Petrov defence by Black.
This is Bach. This is Beethoven. This is among the highest possible GENIUS level connection of mind, body and spirit. I’d proudly show this to aliens visiting earth.
This is White man's music, degenerated.
This is enough to make a man wanna quit
There's a clip of Oscar Peterson talking with Dick Cavett about how his father told him he didn't know how to play piano and showed him Art Tatum's Tiger Rag and he fully wanted to quit after hearing it... He says, “When I heard Art Tatum for the first time, I quit playing the piano for two solid months and had crying fits at night. It actually haunted me that someone could play the piano this well." If you listen to Tiger Rag and then this clip, you can here a few little licks he references here (:
Man I love this dude.
He truly was one of the greats. CBC (Canadian Broadcasting Corporation) has many hours of recordings of Peterson, which they played when he passed away. I remember one of the tunes which was moving along at Oscar's normal mode, and then, about two thirds of the way through the piece he just took off. It was amazing to listen to! He just leaped into another level entirely. He could do that. He could carry you along, thinking he was the greatest, then jump to a whole different level in a second. Thank you Oscar, for all the beauty you brought to the world.
Play 1:20 at 0.5 speed and see how his lines still swing hard. Oscar is just wow...
That’s the only way I can listen to him to fully enjoy the melodic quality of his lines. My brain just can’t catch up with his normal playing!
that was an awesome tip. sounds like a mid level amateur player would play in time etc

He is not playing piano, he went beyond it. He is talking with his piano. Amazing.
Genius.
Unbelievable 😮
Incredible! A real genius !
Damn. The whole time watching I just asked myself. How is he doing that? Mesmerising stuff.
other worldly. miles beyond
Oscar the man 🎶🙏
You are The best transcriber on TH-cam Brother! 🔥
The SWEAT on this man was so earned
And he was quoted as saying "Never be afraid to do more of what you find easy" And I don't think he was joking either. To be able to play like that must mean he was born with a unique clock-speed in his brain that nobody else had. It's brain-wiring and a quirk of nature. How glad the world was that he exploited that for our enjoyment. What a guy he was!
I find it difficult to believe that you actually like listening to this music. You might be impressed by it, but I doubt it's something you actually enjoy.
Just imagine writing it out
Legends right here.
This is just unbelievable. 😂
Amazing!!!!!
Superb 👍 💯💥
Nobody should be this good
MORE. I actually beg you. PELASE PLEASE PRETTY FUCKING PLEASE!!!!!!!
Just wow
Una Piramide di GENIALITA' !!!
With Niels-Henning Oscar Peterson!
I saw OSCAR & MCCOY TYNER play TOGETHER (dueling pianos) in San Francisco. MCCOY was the KING by the end of the gig. To sum it up, Oscar plays everything that you've heard before. McCoy plays everything that you've NEVER HEARD before. 😀🙏🏼
Tyner could come up with the most amazing harmonies and voicings that just hung in the air longer than you’d think possible.
@@rfichokeofdestiny I agree! McCoy is the only musician that I saw make an entire audience CRY after playing "After the Rain." He was so light on the keys, you could hear a pin drop. Greatest performance I'd ever seen. 🙏🏼
If he repeated playing this he would play some different notes that suited his fast hands. He did not write sheet music. It was done after he passed away. He had fun playing super fast ad lib.
A whole audience of pianists.
Increíble que pueda entender las notas que hace exactamente el contrabajo 😅
He was in my opinion the greatest.
not quite on the 1/8 note singlesaround 0:20 , there were tripets in there.
Who are u?
Oh, behave! 😁
Can amyone improvise so fluid today?
No cell phones, no tattoos -everyone just enjoying the stride
damn 😳
Sure
⚠️ What software do you often use for helping transcribing ? There are several on the market right now ! 🙏👍
Dan.....what software do you use to slow this down for transcription?
Revenge (in a nice way ) on Art T
Super Human Man . . .
Super Saiyan 3 skills
Is this possible 🤷♂️🤷♂️🫣🫣
swanee river:)
Imagine if he'd practiced !!
how can you transcribe this?
Jesus.
that's your grandfather
ok! je vais prendre une hache et casser mon piano! 🙁
He repeatedly gets the melody for Mack The Knife completely wrong. Amateur.
Tushea (it's completely wrong)
Oscar Peterson didn’t play the piano. The piano played him.
I think I will stick with Mahler
Technically amazing. Unfortunately it sounds mechanical learned patterns to my ears. Precise and coldly indifferent expressively. No doubting the accomplishment but it doesn’t say anything to me.
Oscar did rely on learned licks and patterns, which is undeniable and probably necessary at that speed. Oscar could play with a great touch when he wanted to though..
Technically impressive to some, audibly disturbing to all.
Will playing like this in 2024 get you paid and laid tho?
For a classically trained pianist this is not very difficult. It is fast, but otherwise rather simple.
for a classically pianist this is difficult because it is improvised, with his own vocabulary, plus the swing and the articulation
Have fun with the stride bass!
@@gomesbubbles922 first, we are talking about technical aspect. This is how this is advertised. Second, it is not as much improvised as you may imagine. It is a set of standard phrases from his vocabulary. Third, classical pianists also improvise, just in different genre.
Mmmmm...Put your mouth where your fingers are and show us what you can do. Otherwise......!!!!
Cmon this is Hard as hell . He studied with a pupil of liszt and the same teacher of cziffra. This pianist has the same level of technichal skill than the greatest classical pianists. Just a different languaje. Not less hard
This is a mockery of the White man's music.
That music don't make no sense.
Takes a little to train your ear to hear the nuance
