Proclaimed by Vanity Fair magazine as "the most arrestingly innovative pianist in jazz over the last decade or so," Fred Hersch balances his internationally recognized instrumental skills with significant achievements as a composer, band leader, and theatrical conceptualist, as well as remaining an in-demand collaborator with other noted bandleaders and vocalists.
As a solo pianist (he was the first artist in the 75-year history of New York's legendary Village Vanguard to play week-long engagements as a solo pianist -- his second featured run is documented on the 2011 release, "Alone at the Vanguard"), as leader of a widely praised trio whose "Whirl" found its way onto numerous 2010 best-recordings-of-the-year lists and, as the impetus behind ambitious 2011 production, "My Coma Dreams" (a full-evening work for 11 instruments, actor/singer and animation/multimedia), Hersch has fully lived up to the approbation of the New York Times which, in a featured Sunday Magazine article, praised him as "singular among trailblazers of their art, a largely unsung innovator of this borderless, individualistic jazz -- a jazz for the 21st century."
His 2011 release "Alone at the Vanguard" earned him two GRAMMY Award nominations -- his fourth and fifth -- for Best Jazz Album and Best Improvised Jazz Solo, was awarded the 2012 Grand Prix du Disque by the Academie Charles Cros in France, and made the Best Jazz CDs of 2012 lists in Slate and Downbeat Magazine.
Fred is a genius. So well rounded: he swings, can play in and out, has phrasing up there w/ Jarrett, he has near limitless imagination, is a virtuoso and is ORIGINAL. He always has been since I first heard him.
Oh he is obviously a ballad player of the highest order. Fred also has a Monk-rollins-Corea-Byardesque sense of humor,. Juxposition of all extremes. So Underrated or rather under the radar, he is up w/Keith, Chick, Brad and Marc Copland. I havent heard him in a while. Thank you beyond words 4 posting.
Fantastic! FH remind me about Bill Evans and how beatiful piano trio can be.
If Jazz musicians had 't listened to classic music, how in the world would they have developed jazz? I can dig that folks don't appreciate Hersch, but then as an old jazz mentor once said to me. "Perhaps it is not his creativity that is wantibng, but simply that YOUR ears that are not yet ready for it." I hear Hersch as absolutely wonderful.
This only has 8900 views? Hearing him is like opening up your consciousness. My God....!
One of the loveliest versions of "The Song Is You" I have heard in all my years! Whoa, dude...
1:18:28 something by T. Monk is : PLAYED TWICE ( T. Monk , 1959 )
This may, ... just be, ... my favorite jazz trio. I'm 55. And, I have a background in music, primarily keyboard. Purely fantastic jazz musicians and composers here. Skill level is incredible.
He is one among my faourites.It is very hard to know the best.
Fred Hersch é realmente um excelente pianista.... Ótimo Show! Great concert...
Beyond...the evolution of all that has gone before...ensemble playing at the highest level...
Great! We've seen and heard them in Paris last month at "philharmonie"..Excellent musicians and music too!
just wonderful ! Thanks to share this beautiful moment :) I love this pianist, one of my favourites piano players !!!!!!
This is splendid! He hears such beautiful and unique improvisations!
amazing pianist ! thanks for sharing !
Amazing!!!! Thanks Fred, lovely musician!
you know those classical musicians listens to jazz music too you know. Ravel, Debussy, Chopin got some "jazz" harmony in their compositions. Bach and Mozart were master improviser.
0:55:42 "The Wind"
I like his ballad style of playing. Very large sounding chord voicings. Sounds like he's backing up a singer. Wonder what melody he's got playing in his head throughout nardis.
jazz music was created by black musicians who combined the African groove and pentatonic scale with the harmonies and instruments of classical music. you can't separate the two.
Could we hear some phrasing in the first piece coming from Chopin's "revolutionary study"??..is it only me? :) anyway, fantastic concert.
Something of phenomenal and unexplainable beauty for the musically illiterates as myself, happens at 17:01
right on, a little touch hear and there but this is over the top
it s :Moon and sand at 55mn
We can see I mean hear where Brad Mehldau took his inspiration....And it's not a criticism!
Brad Mehldau studied by Fred Hersh.
Agreed......
クラシカルだからとか、ジャズだからとか言っていてもしょうがないですね。
良いものは良い、良いです。
Guess you don't like Bill Evans, Oscar Peterson, Keith Jarrett, Brad Meldhau, Monk, Charlie Parker, Chick Corea, Herbie Hancock, Wayne Shorter, Miles Davis, etc...
All studied and/or played classical music to sharpen their skills and get compositional ideas.
i wonder why you guys with the most provocative comments are made unable to reply to... when you say you like jazz and despise classical music, you only show either your ignorance or your precocious interest in jazz, the latter is OK i guess. but music is about opening your mind, and you won't achieve that by denying millenniums of musical tradition. the most hardcore jazz musicians will say the same.
In this case I have to agree . I too prefer my Jazz and Classical not mixed together, at least not this way.
He is too much “pianistic”. Great jazz happens when someone explores the harmonies in exciting rhythms to construct the solos; the rest is blah, blah, blah.
+Ricardo da Mata Thank you for your objectivity.
great music happens when ignorant people start to shut their mouth up.
I would prefer it if jazz piano players never listened to a piece of classical music
