At 74 I had long ago given up on my music and was just sort of waiting for the end. You have been the major part in giving me back my life. You have been the major player in getting me off my backside and practicing again. You have been the major factor in re igniting my passion for music. I thank you and I love you. If there is heaven and I am destined to go there, I will search for you and give you a hug and my thanks from the bottom of my heart.
Beautifully said! Never quit. Never surrender your passion! Age is nothing but a number. Now that the flame is re-ignited, keep it fed and let it burn bright within your heart and soul. Let your music be your voice, just as it once was long ago. Let it flow once again through your veins. I wish you well.
Dire que c'est en concert... C'est absolument incroyable. Il est toujours difficile de parler de perfection en musique car on la ressent tous de façon différente. Mais là quand même, je crois bien qu'on y est. Il n'y a rien en trop, il ne manque rien, comme une évidence. Un truc infiniment complexe et technique mais qu'un absolu béotien peut ressentir au plus profond de lui. C'est sans doute ça le génie.
The Intro is a “variation” on You Must Believe In Spring then another Michel Legrand piece.This is the most amazing Autumn Leaves I have ever heard.It surely a must for ALL to hear!!!
Que cela fait du bien de se plonger en ce moment dans cette belle et expressive sensibilité ! Tellement revivifiant! A vos claviers les robots du transhumanisme, vous avez du boulot avant d’arriver à la cheville de ce petit bonhomme! La beauté sauvera le monde et celle ci repose dans ce qu’il y a en nous de plus fragile, de plus humain, comme l’exprimait si bien ce magicien du jazz.
Genuino. Jugando con su juguete y con nosotros. Incipiente? Libre y audacísimo. Un regalo. Emite siempre con autoridad, solidez, y siempre reflejos de alegría, humor, originalidad, frescura...
I did not know how to appreciate this tune when I was early 20s. When I grow to (perhaps) more fully understand the subtle emotions in it, I have just me. I hope this song is heard once again.
Je suis un grand fan de Petrucciani, et je me suis toujours dit que ce que la nature lui avait fait comme vacherie en lui donnant cette maladie des os, elle l'avait compensé en lui donnant ce génie musical incroyable. Quelle tristesse qu'il soit mort si jeune... 😥😥😥
So complex, yet so much soul. Such mastery actually brought a tear to my eye and a smile to my face. I just wish more people appreciated this kind of creativity.
Genio , único . No puedo dejar de escucharte . Y cada vez con mas profundidad reconozco tu talento. Increíble . A veces Dios no quiere que las cosas buenas perduren y te llevo antes de tiempo. El misterio.
this is a really astonishing performance in all aspects, amazing sound, amazing reharmonization and recomposiotion, unbeliveable thechnique and speed(especially in adition to his size) and time feel and amazing improvisation. one of the things that I truly like about his impro is the fact that he didn't care to play "simple" melodies with simple scales almoat classical like, almost not bebop and still sound amazing and interesting
this is a masterpiece in itself . the intro is so dense and intense . it brings almost tears in m y eyes. you can feel the pain michelle was suffering.
What a monster. Sadly I will never listen to him during a concert, but this is better than nothing. I will continue to listen this in my house, in the middle of my existence crisis.
Petit par la taille , très très grand pianiste de jazz et plus...super mains gauche harmonisation d'exception , Michel dommage que tu ne sois plus avec nous , tu as aussi rejoins les plus grands , j'espère que tu te prend le pied car bien entendu tu n'es pas mort et tu resteras toujours dans nos coeurs
I feel this music is like the summer going away and the winter coming. The general feel is winterly only there's some summer in it, but darker, colder. Anyway, the tittle really matches the whole feeling of the music. Genius.
I've never heard anything quite like this before. I just discovered this man just a moment ago. This was really profound. I said to myself: What the hell was that!? In a good connotation, he swung notes around like a brush and made a painting out of it, that was some kind of art!
Mine too… such emotion… can heal my stabbed cardiac muscle… his feelings when playing are stronger than my emotional pain in my loneliness, now that I’m refused by everything and everyone… even for the people for whom I have so great esteem (not more than ten, myself not included)
RIP Michel Petrucciani. Nature made you small. You made yourself a giant.

May God have him in heaven, amen.

yes I play guitar and piano 4 to 6 hours evey day. Makes live better my friend :)
@@ronsiegrist2034 No question about that. Life is always better with music.
Michel was my friend
@@ronsiegrist2034 Then you have been highly blessed by both his music, and his friendship. A legacy I'm sure you treasure.
Just astonished! That may be the best version of Autumn Leaves I’ve ever heard on ANY instrument. Truly God sent down an angel to play for us!
Check out Stanley Jordan's version of Autumn Leaves. It's on guitars and very different but very good.
all pianos are yearning for a maestro like you

I was so fortunate to see/hear him in small venue. It was 30 years ago and that experience is still with me. An unbelievable genius.

Une interprétation de ces "Feuilles mortes" qui touche au coeur et à l'esprit. Quel incroyable génie, ce bien cher Michel Petrucciani !
Talento, tecnica, passione, energia, libertà: VITA. Questo era il grandissimo Petrucciani.
aveva un beat pazzesco, un senso del tempo mostruoso, a parte tutto il resto :D grande Michel
Petrucciani ! One of the most exciting Jazz improvisers ever. Such technique, truly extraordinary.
Que cela fait du bien de se plonger en ce moment dans cette belle et expressive sensibilité ! Tellement revivifiant!

Petrucciani and Bill Evans. Both in a class by themselves.
Amazing how it starts so slowly and then builds into all these different architectures.
Genuino. Jugando con su juguete y con nosotros. Incipiente? Libre y audacísimo. Un regalo. Emite siempre con autoridad, solidez, y siempre reflejos de alegría, humor, originalidad, frescura...
What a pure gifted musician. He's greatly missed. Thanks Michel for all the music you gave the world.
I did not know how to appreciate this tune when I was early 20s. When I grow to (perhaps) more fully understand the subtle emotions in it, I have just me. I hope this song is heard once again.
Heureusement que le Genie Musical n'est pas de pair avec "perfection physique", tant recherchée aujourd'hui!! . Merci Michel.

I'm right there with ya
its self kept for a lot of people.. there's this abnormal gap between the masses thinking people that listen to jazz are loonies
@@FREAKMorticianwe are ..
Amazingly beautiful harmonies, to me the best part starts at 3:32
One of the best jazz pianists ever with incredible musical imagination
Genio , único . No puedo dejar de escucharte . Y cada vez con mas profundidad reconozco tu talento. Increíble . A veces Dios no quiere que las cosas buenas perduren y te llevo antes de tiempo. El misterio.
Cuánta genialidad nos dejó este hombre. Fantástico Michel Petrucciani.
What a gift he was to the World. We need more music, not wars. Thanks Monsieur Petrucciani, rip.
no one got this raw emotional sound as michel a genius and I know all music lovers can hear this Nigel Nash I great britain

I haven't found more creative and dynamic version of Autumn Leaves than Petrucciani. Thanks
Kokia graži muzika, kaip puikiai atliekama. Aš žaviuosi žmogaus talentu.
Le Extraordinaire Michel Petrucciani. Bravo. Merci.
How much beauty from those lyrical hands
If I liked jazz I would adore this man. Michel cannot change my mind. Fantastic pianist.
Im sure in the heaven one piano reserved for him
Janos Illes amen
Let's hope so
There is a pretty big chance that there is no heaven and hell. None of us can be sure though.
God bless this thread
what a interpretation of autumn leaves! surely one of the bests I've ever heard
Descubro nuevos recovecos en mis oidos a traves de su maravillosa musica..!!! Grande por siempre ..!!
Obra maestra de interpretación con una introducción digna de ser un título. Te hecharemos siempre de menos.
Simple and strident! Each voice is so clear and yet so strident ! I hear Tatum constructed! What a pure joy!
Master and a spirit you are !thank you sír RIP!)
you opened my ears, now you opened my heart.
BRAVO & OLAY!!!
And many thanks for sharing with us all.
absolutely floored.
What a monster.
Sadly I will never listen to him during a concert, but this is better than nothing.
I will continue to listen this in my house, in the middle of my existence crisis.
Absolutely gorgeous !!
No había oído una interpretación como esta,es una verdadera obra de arte
If there is a God, and there must be. He gave Michel, a gift few have. But what a price to pay, for that talent.
He was one of my favorite pianists. I didn't miss his concerts in Zürich.
Wow, I don't think I could ever pronounce your last name.
wao wao wao wao this is one of the best versions of autumn leave i ever heard WAAAAAAAAAOOOOOOOOOOO BRAAAAAAAVVVVOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Brilliant! Many overuse adjective, but he was amazingly brilliant. Sound, interpretation, such clarity, super piano skills.
Wundervoll! Was für ein Jammer, daß wir ihn so früh verloren haben...
Petit par la taille , très très grand pianiste de jazz et plus...super mains gauche harmonisation d'exception , Michel dommage que tu ne sois plus avec nous , tu as aussi rejoins les plus grands , j'espère que tu te prend le pied car bien entendu tu n'es pas mort et tu resteras toujours dans nos coeurs
I should listen to more of this amazing stuff this guy plays.
just ..'wow' !! Thanks so much for sharing
This song has really calmed my nerves, been thinkin too much
6:13 - Amazing! A really genius!
tellement fier qu'il soit french!!! merci michel.
Michel Petrucciani Simply one of the best piano players
I feel this music is like the summer going away and the winter coming. The general feel is winterly only there's some summer in it, but darker, colder. Anyway, the tittle really matches the whole feeling of the music. Genius.
I've never heard anything quite like this before. I just discovered this man just a moment ago. This was really profound. I said to myself:
What the hell was that!?
In a good connotation, he swung notes around like a brush and made a painting out of it, that was some kind of art!
just Awesome playing and I appreciate this opportunity to listen TY😃😍
Rip for ever Michel,yu gave so much to the musical world.U are among the greatest
Con tanto ARTE contenido en este hombre, ralmente siento que el discapacitado soy yo. Un artista GIGANTE!!!!
A mio avviso uno dei migliori pianisti di sempre.
Puoi dirlo forte
a deeply emotional performance. Love it!
Michel Petrucciani (RIP) repairs my frozen heart.
Mine too… such emotion… can heal my stabbed cardiac muscle… his feelings when playing are stronger than my emotional pain in my loneliness, now that I’m refused by everything and everyone… even for the people for whom I have so great esteem (not more than ten, myself not included)
Un IMMENSE génie de créativité ... Et c est en live..
soo good! Thank you for your talent.
Simply phenomenal!!
3:33 - 4:00 is one of the most genius piano solos i have ever heard
Yeah thats some high level hand indipendence skill, he really rocks!
Oh my godddd
God shows us how much He loves us by letting Angels come down and play for us
Beautiful music is sometimes more than music!
The cover photo of the album is excellent!
My God.. incredible.. ♥
Sweet with technique!! Love his style.
His introduction is a work of art in itself.
I love how the introduction hints at Autumn Leaves so suddenly, but you don't actually hear the real head drop until around two and a half minutes in.
Actually it draws from the original song, which is very popular in France.
He plays the verse, wich obviously perfectly introduced the chorus. This is a great song.
SIEMPRE EN MI CORAZÓN ESTE GRAN GIGANTE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GRANDE
Thanks for uploading and Michel got almost 2 times the hits as Keith Jarrett's version.I like KJ,but like everybody else,I do have favorites.
:) fantastico.
ed è una strana sorpresa il trovarcelo suggerito dal web in coda alla visione delle nostre micro saggezz... saggine
Simply amazing.
Hans Brikkenbakken i
Solo un Dios en la Tierra como Michel puede hacer esta genialidad.
little man huge soul n talent
Magnifique.
wonderful when dreaming away
Michel perfectly combined Bill Evans and Oscar Peterson's characteristics in his own music.
Beautiful playing
Brillante musica sutil y potente. Lo recordaremos siempre Jazz genial
Un génie bien trop vite parti .......mais il est avec nous pour toujours .......Repose en paix MICHEL
un si grand monsieur...il nous manque tant...
Pure electric magical musical joy!

You make my heart sing.
Amazing interpretation!
sad to see such a legend pass so early.
January 1999
John Doe
It's amazing that he could play and perform so well when he was in constant pain.
he does everything in one damn tune!
Beautiful interpretation!
Wow! Dexterously mastered!
Unico!! Irripetibile............
The transition at 1:33 ....speechless.
Magic Michel.

Великий ЧЕЛОВЕК!
