Brubeck would hold Rodrigo y Gabriela in the highest esteem - he would have enjoyed your brilliant take on Desmond’s TAKE FIVE. An inspired choice. Muchas gracias. 🌹
These two took Ireland by storm around the turn of the century. They started off busking on Dublin's Grafton St and very quickly grew to playing some big venues. I was the lighting engineer for them ca. 2002/2003/2004 at The Half Moon club in Cork and saw them a few times around that period. Incredible musicians.
I was visiting Ireland, Dublin and Cork, and was amazed at the level the street musicians play at. There are these two for example and one I bought a beer after listening to him for an hour. He had played back up guitar for a bunch of big names. And, side bar, I worked in technical theater for 30 years here in the states. . . Lighting, T.D. Carpenter. . . But this woman in this video "Plays with the blood", as Rodrigo De Souza says in Mozart in the Jungle.
There's an interview with Dave Brubeck where he talks about the composition of Take Five. Apparently, Brubeck wrote the chord sequence and Desmond jammed over the top to try to work out a melody; eventually, Desmond hit on the tune we all know. When it came to attributing composition, however, Desmond was insistent that it should be to him alone, and Brubeck let him have it! (I believe Desmond was a difficult man, and the relationship between him and Brubeck was often strained.) Of course, the tune is the really great thing about it, so perhaps it's fair enough.
Brubeck has notoriety for "odd" time signatures. Especially like in Blue Rondo a La Turk and take five was technically released/recorded as a Dave brubeck quartet song (of which Paul Desmond was part of the quartet)
@@MrBarney2107 The version I heard Dave tell was that he had asked Paul to write a tune in 5 and Paul said he had a couple of themes but could get no further. Dave then helped him to organise the themes into the number we know today. Dave let him have the composer's rights as he (Dave) had written the other stuff on Time Out. Incidentally there are tapes of the rehearsals of T5 for the album where they were having all sorts of difficulties playing it for some while until the mastered it - see Philip Clark's biography.
As a teenager I watched in shock as the punk ass 11 year old alto player in our combo asked Brubek if he might play with him later in the day- to our shock he said yes and they tore down the house on this song
I sadly never got to see him play and I'm not sure why considering he was very much still active when I was an aspiring jazz musician back in school. I also think he would be absolutely thrilled to know that probably one of the first charts that high school bands across the country/world play is "Take Five". It's a very accessible odd-meter tune to play and good for learning (albeit probably at a much slower tempo than intended).
Excuse me, not timeless but 5 / 4 time. Also ironical that this song, “Take 5” first appeared in the Dave Brubeck Quartet album titled: TIME OUT haha 😊
I first listened to "take-five" in 1961 while in high school in san francisco ca I became a complete fan of all Brubeck music! this cover is exemplary in all ways possible. the joyous laughing at its finale is so refreshing during these awful current times we must all endure.
Conocí a Rodrigo en 1997-98? en un canal de Tv donde los dos trabajábamos. En una sesión de trabajo él hizo una pieza musical para una secuencia que yo le pedí. Me impresionó su entrega y su compromiso. Después me invitó a ver tocar a su banda. Gabriela llevaba una playera azul y roja de “Superchica” (SG) y a mi me impresionó que tocaran Metal, lo cual no era muy lo mío pero pasé una agradable noche escuchando a R&G . Pasaron los días y Rodrigo me dijo que renunciaría al trabajo y que se iba del país “Nos vamos a Irlanda” y nos despedimos. Años pasaron y hoy ellos son Rockstars. Y lo más importante: son grandes seres humanos 🤟🏻🎶 Rock On!
I met these two many years ago in Brixton when they were supporting David Gray. They absolutely stole the show but were such lovely, humble people to chat to afterwards. I'll always remember them and the music.
because it is way too rushed. Take 5 means in essence to take a break, to calm down a bit. The way they did it, while impressive is more like, take 3 minutes to snort cocaine and speed the shit out of whatever we need to do
Proof there still is a God in Brazil allowing beautiful people to express themselves through talented music safe inspired and forever Brazilian beautiful.
I came in for a few seconds just to check out this guitar version of drawbacks Brubak’s famous piece ... and I was glued to the screen to the end. Awesome!
I love the "less polished" version! Right now, with so many of us separated from each other, informal and honest wins the day. Thank you so much for sharing this!
I search "Flamenco Take Five", and this gem comes up first result. I saw these two on Jools Holland back in either '06 or '07, then live at V Fest in '07. They were THE first artists I saw at a festival. Never fail to amaze me with their playing.
You are the reason why we’ll have a celebration this Mother’s Day Sunday. There is no end to what our Mother’s would do to make sure they’re children are safe doing well. Coming from a family of musicians (me included) I understand how the love of music has always somehow been apart of our coming together. Music heals and makes rough times better. God Bless
OK, this is what can happen when 2 exceptional musicians are so in tune with each other(no pun intended)! And I'm a kit drummer who played this song in a band back in 1966, just before I got drafted. I also enjoy their "deceptive endings", a common trait of theirs. It makes their music even more intriguing! If THAT'S even possible!!!!!
One of my favorite tunes. I had serious doubts about two guitars doing it justice, but WOW! That was excellent!!! Dave Brubeck’s still King, but wow! Thank you for sharing,
Just wonderful, and done differently from any other version. Dave Brubeck is smiling down upon you and the new harmonies that he would not have thought of for the most iconic piece of his life's work.

I did not think it possible to reinterpret this genius piece of music other than the original Brubeck/Desmond combination. I don't even normally care much for guitar, but these folks are FANTASTIC! Thanks for sharing.
😃🥰They're in such rapport. When they play it's like they're mackin, just in complete sync and harmonious. I like it as much as the original. Awesomeness. Simoon.

Well done. A lot of mentions of Brubeck here, but let’s not forget Paul Desmond wrote this beautiful piece.
That's good too know. I Love the piece, and an outstanding job done here.

Yes. That was my first thought, too!
2:50 the sweetness of the sound...
One of those rare occasions where I can say 'Because we always need another version of Take 5' without irony or snarkasm.
As a teenager I watched in shock as the punk ass 11 year old alto player in our combo asked Brubek if he might play with him later in the day- to our shock he said yes and they tore down the house on this song

Well said. And the way they laughed at her clam on the final chord of the song made me like this version even more. 😊
Beautiful rendition of an iconic jazz piece!
Great term "snarkasm" a keeper 👍
I remember them from Grafton Street, Dublin. You brought latin sunshine to Ireland, we miss you!♥️
I was just thinking to myself, she must be Irish because she's wearing a paddy cap.
Flamenco music is beautiful but please to mix it with jazz.
Wow, her right hand technique is amazing.
Her right hand technique? You are a dirty, dirty boy!
These guys are greater together than the sum of their parts. They have a way of interacting muscaly that is magic.
Wow. That took a turn I did NOT exprect. An INCREDIBLE turn.
the little piece of paper that says “trust the process” in the back really nails it
Thank you for your spontaneity. Thank you for sharing your talent. Thank you for the laughter.
I saw Dave Brubeck in concert a couple times, he'd be happy the next generation is paying homage to this timeless tune.
I sadly never got to see him play and I'm not sure why considering he was very much still active when I was an aspiring jazz musician back in school.
I also think he would be absolutely thrilled to know that probably one of the first charts that high school bands across the country/world play is "Take Five".

Time out is one of my favorite albums of all time

The guitar is the king and queen of all instruments and Segovia is the God of the Universe. Good job, guys.
Not the first time I've been back here in the past two years....nor the last. You both are magnificent!
Dave Brubeck on guitars...REALLY OUTSTANDING...(no bom e velho português...bom pra...)
une perle j'éoute ce morceau depuis 50 ans et cette version est une perle deux musiciens extraterreste

acabo de escuchar esa historia en convoy, y me tiene pegao jaja
Should there be any music playing in heaven, Rodrigo and Gabriela are the band. Too amazing for words.
I met these two many years ago in Brixton when they were supporting David Gray. They absolutely stole the show but were such lovely, humble people to chat to afterwards. I'll always remember them and the music.
How could anyone have downvoted this? Brubeck himself would be astounded!
Brubeck himself 😂😂😂 Full Metal Jacket fan??
So would Desmond
I wish YT would just do away with down voting
They have to be accidental downvotes. That was epic! Words like awesome and incredible get thrown around a lot, but they genuinely apply here.
because it is way too rushed. Take 5 means in essence to take a break, to calm down a bit. The way they did it, while impressive is more like, take 3 minutes to snort cocaine and speed the shit out of whatever we need to do
Great . Both with closed eyes. True musicians
It's so new!!every time!
Am I the only one who’s soul vibrates and gets transported to a peaceful place where you could stay forever at minute 2:50??
Proof there still is a God in Brazil allowing beautiful people to express themselves through talented music safe inspired and forever Brazilian beautiful.
They are Mexican
What a Great way to start my Saturday. Thank You Both Bunches
I came in for a few seconds just to check out this guitar version of drawbacks Brubak’s famous piece ... and I was glued to the screen to the end. Awesome!
What a great treat - R y G au naturale. Nods for camera work too - their faces, finger-work and setting captured so clearly.
Marvellous, and a big shout out to the camera person 👏👏👏👏👏
ian clarke they had to be super thin to get between her guitar and the cabinet!
Gimbal
I love the "less polished" version! Right now, with so many of us separated from each other, informal and honest wins the day. Thank you so much for sharing this!
The brilliance in artistry and creativity is almost horrifying.
So good, thanks!
they so got the rhythm of Dave Brubeck/ Rodrigo got it perfect!! soo wish they played more hit songs. They have the touch.
I search "Flamenco Take Five", and this gem comes up first result.
I saw these two on Jools Holland back in either '06 or '07, then live at V Fest in '07. They were THE first artists I saw at a festival.

Excellent version of one of the greatest songs ever written.
Мои любимые Take Five! Наконец на гитарах! На акустике! Спасибо!
I just love these two beautiful human beings.

I saw them live just once, thus far: in Manchester England. They were outstanding!
Creo que mis sentidos se están volviendo adictos a Rodrigo y Gabriela. Solo espero el siguiente dia para escuchar lo nuevo.
First time I am hearing a guitar version of this jazz piece, it is astounding! Thank you for playing it.
Love love love love love love!!!!!!!!!!
Love this song and ecstatic over this version. Saw them in Buffalo in 1968ish. They would love it, too! Innovation is a language they lived!
And they surprise me yet again... These two are just so damn good!
I love the work of these two. They play very well together.
The perfect blend of reverence and interpretation...
Que fantastico!
Vaca Santa!
Mil.gracias😊😊😊😊😊😊😊❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Gabriela ojalá pudiera tener tu mano derecha , de verdad geniales los dos como siempre, saludos desde Coruña ,Galicia

Thanks to both of you for this well played music. Enjoyed listening very much. Been 50 yrs since I last listened to this music Take 5.
bonjour
je vous découvre par hasard .
dieu que c est bon !!! merci pour ce délicieux moment de partage.
Starway to heaven
I watch this over and over again. Simply beautiful!
De la grande cuisine ! Merci à tous les deux !
Such a classic from a classy duo.
I started scrolling. But the drum solo on the guitar was stunning! I haven't seen this before. A worthy echo to what Joe Morello did!
A true joy to hear you two are locked into each other. Music is an old friend. Thank you for the moments. Good luck and thank you
Thats so badass. I love it when others know this great song from 1955. Haha. Number Jazz Hit of that year. Too legit. A1
Como siempre hermoso, saludos dese Mèxico , su casa ....
Your music gives me goosebumps every time I hear it and is a reminder there is such beauty in this world, no matter how dark it can get.
I’ve never heard a better version than one played by Brubeck... until now. Wow!
Hay que bonitos. Very beautiful..... I have the original as my ringtone
Such a joy to listen and watch these two
One of my favorite tunes. I had serious doubts about two guitars doing it justice, but WOW! That was excellent!!! Dave Brubeck’s still King, but wow!
Thank you for sharing,
Special, light, quickly fulfilling and enjoying the sweet tones! Gracias!
Very nice.... interesting interpretation and well worth listening to
Just wonderful, and done differently from any other version. Dave Brubeck is smiling down upon you and the new harmonies that he would not have thought of for the most iconic piece of his life's work.
Rodrigo, you are fortunate to be a talented musician. You are even more fortunate to be wed to an Act Of God.

Absolutely BRILLIANT, May the both both of you and yours be blessed in this horrible time. Thank you for sharing your artistry.
Awesome arrangement of Dave Brubeck’s Take 5 🎸👏✌️👌
I❤️you both! Thank you for your beautiful music🔥✨
¡Como vuelas Gabriela! ¡Como hilas Rodrigo!.... Son grandes sanadores
Absolutely wonderful and amazing
I did not think it possible to reinterpret this genius piece of music other than the original Brubeck/Desmond combination. I don't even normally care much for guitar, but these folks are FANTASTIC! Thanks for sharing.
My second favorite jazz tune! ("So What" comes first.)
Interesting watching Gabriela do those big bends while strumming.
😃🥰They're in such rapport. When they play it's like they're mackin, just in complete sync and harmonious. I like it as much as the original. Awesomeness. Simoon.
Waououh. What a beautiful music ! Thousands hand claps.
Well done. We have to keep this music alive.
Love me some Dave Brubeck! They do a rousing rendition. Bravo 👏 thanks 🙏
Thanks for the humanity of the ending; beautiful expression!
I grew up listening to the original. My dad was a huge jazz lover. I just love how she reacts at the end!
Dave Brubeck has got to be proud to have these two awesome artist masterfully paying homage . Oh my greenchile. I have all but wet myself.
Fantastic cover. I know the two of you have been playing together for a long time and it shows. Your timing is amazing. Love it.
I’ve been playing this for years, but this is my favourite versions. Awesome!!
I love the little pots on the shelf behind them. Trust the Process.
Dave Brubeck would be proud. Extremely proud.... ;-)
I love them. Huge fan for many years. Thanks. Be safe.
4:00 when you notice the setting is really a kitchen 😛 says how engrossing that performance was 👏👏🤘🤘🙇
Brilliant Thank you for seeking your truth
An intimate and magnificent performance of one of my favorite jazz standards. Thank you both very much! Stay safe and take care of those you love.
Amazingly amazingnessly amaze-ballededly and mindboggledly amazed
I'm just gonna say what we're all thinking. Ending on major AND minor is P E R F E C T O !!! 😁✌🏾🤟🏾🤘🏾
yep, I even didn't get at first that that wasn't the idea
That was sooooo cute 🤣😍
That was the most adorable wholesome reaction from the two too. How do you not smile watching that
Sorprendente¡¡¡¡ esa cancion ya me gustaba¡¡¡¡ hasta dan ganas de tocar guitarra
Desde Nuestr HERMOSO MEXICO !!!Muchas Felicidades🌷🍃
What a great ending :D this makes it much more personal than a standard ending! Greetings from Germany
The passion! The energy! Gab's face said it all.
A classic. An awesome rendition.
that section that starts at 2:51 is such an incredible re-envision of the song. This arrangement is wonderful
Awesome times a billion.
This was tune that got me into jazz many years ago. A very nice rendition. Many thx.
I saw Rodrigo and Gabriela in concert in Atlanta about 11 or 12 years ago and they were AMAZING 🤗
She's literally a genius. Many life times it will take us to understand.
Yoda like, you speak. So true. 👍
