I learned about Joey from someone's post in Facebook last year, and I was so speechless! I couldn't stop listening/watching everything in TH-cam about him. I would close my eyes to really listen to his music, and my mind can't get around the fact that the complex, improvised melody is played by a 10 year old. He makes me so proud as we are both from Indonesia, and I wish I had an iota of his incredible gift from God. I love listening to jazz since I was his age, and now I am witnessing the Mozart of jazz in my lifetime. My heart swells with pride and gratitude for this boy! Terima kasih Joey udah membagi bakat yang Tuhan berikan untuk kamu kepada dunia. Thank you Joey for sharing the gift that God has given you to this world.
My mom told me she heard a ten year old Chinese kid (she didn’t know) really playing jazz. I said sure mom. I listened and burst into tears because I knew I was witnessing a miracle.
I would like be to meet his mom parents of this incredible talented child!
the applause is "polite" .. I'd be yelling the house down.
I first heard Joey Alexander live on June 20, 2015 during his performance at Hatch Recital Hall at Eastman School of Music in Rochester, New York, during the Xerox Rochester International Jazz Festival. This gifted jazz child plays with the utmost maturity, of which many pianists (of all ages) don't achieve! I'm blessed to be in radio and have hosted Artistry in Jazz since 1982. I have never been more moved by any artist I've met or heard. Let's all enjoy this special journey of pianist Joey Alexander.
he's already playing at the level of adult professional musicians and he's only 11 years old in this video! Phenomenal - and yet it must be a pleasure for the adults to play with him as he provides access to the child in them and unlimited expression as we all have in childhood! Fabulous Job!
Joey does what every jazz musician aspires to, spontaneous composition/improvisation in the present moment. For the "normal" musician, that takes 10s of 1000s of hours of tedious practice, memorization, and dedication, that over time becomes internalized to where improvisation becomes moments of spontaneous creation mixed in with memorized licks. Eventually, those truly gifted become the masters of their instruments, and achieve the level of improvisational skills that mere mortals only dream of. Then there is Joey...
ChaoticEuphoria Interesting thing is that Joey, in one of his interviews said that the process he experienced on Jazz is something normal :) :)
ChaoticEuphoria Wow...Quite the most accurate and constructive critique I have EVER read on TH-cam. You describe the way I do it but struth, it doesn't come out anywhere near this!!
Apart from the acquisition of that stunning technique and those 1000s of hours required to master it, how has he got in the essential listening time...?
No man is an island and we all depend knowing the genre of Jazz and we need to gather the influence of the rest of the Jazz world.
I am bewildered and delighted by him!
Everything Joey plays is AMAZING and each time is slightly different than the last time.
Imagine the music going on his head and coming from his heart to create such flawless improvisations. He is a very old soul and a gift from God to us.
+Acacia Koa Definitely. His renditions of Round Midnight are all different, and all beautiful. Really special.
This young man inspires me and is playing decades beyond his so called chronological age. I love how he pops a little Brad Mehldau'esque thing in at 1:00. He just breezes in and out of different styles/worlds like Picasso did - and is finding his own voice in the process. I hope Joey (and I) live long lives so I can enjoy his music for years to come!
This kid plays on another planet. Wow. What a career lies ahead for him. Wynton Marsalis calls him a genius and he is right on.
when creations like this are among us, using their amazing skills to fill us with wonder, they are messengers of a realm that must inspire us all. This time we see a musician with a talent that goes beyond our comprehension and accepted learning curves.
So cute, and funny, he stands up and says he forgot the name of the piece, and then plays it, and several others from memory.
exactly, he need a piece of paper for the names, but do not need sheet music at all
@@lacasadepapel9365 Probably shows you it's a different part of the brain, and maybe stored differently. This kid is amazing.
@@MrJdsenior Correct. The names of the compositions are stored in the left hemisphere whereas the music originates in the right hemisphere.
This kid is a prodigy! Some people were born with a significant purpose of great magnitude and Joey Alexander is one of those people.
People who unliked this definitely don't understand a f**k about music
How can it be explained that this kid is this good so early in his young life?...the mysteries of the mind can't always be explained. Piano musicians go to school for years to obtain the mastery that he is now playing with. What a terrific gift to the world he is. I have an ear for skillful playing and this kid clearly is an accomplished professional. The wonders of the mind can never be full explained....what an awesome kid!!
They say we only use 10% of our brain's capability. I would say that Joey is using 90%. 10% from each of the 9 greatest jazz piano players who have ever lived.
Joey starts Giant Steps 51:03 and brings the rhythm section in like he is watching a rerun of Gilligan's Island. Unreal.
Custom Video Solution That part blew my mind to a million bits.
Holy Cow. That rendition of Giant Steps.... it put me in another dimension. This boy is amazing and beyond a master if that's possible. I listen and it's almost beyond real because every note and chord is perfect. His technique - other worldly. He has an amazing grasp of melody and harmony. I'm blown away by his magic - he is the new Merlin of Jazz
Wait... born in 2003 .... taught himself to play piano at age 6....... playing world class jazz at 11..... that's 5 years!!!!! OMG
So love to watch these 'old' videos of when Joey is very young. The surprise I feel when his fingers hit the keys so commandingly when he starts will never get old!
This sounds just as wonderful as 4-5 years ago when I first heard it- a great recording of incredible creativity.
An old soul dwells in a young body. Joey loves jazz all from past lives/ life.
OUT OF THIS WORLD
MINDBLOWING
FANTASTIC
Oscar Petersons reincarnation
His talent for creativity and improvisation is staggering. His maturity is that of a seasoned professional with decades of experience all in the body of a child.
This is thing short of genius. Child prodigy at the highest level. Don't miss his subtle body movements, rhythm is flowing through him...
If there is music in heaven it must be jazz!
that's right!
I love this kid. So gifted and so kind. He's inspiring and makes me think that the world may be okay if there were more like him. Thank you Joey for sharing your love of music!
Joey is the modern jazz Mozart reincarnated! Great chord changes, harmonies and melody. No boring redundancy. Sophisticated rich chords. WOW!
Shades of Brubeck, but greater especially for his age, haven't heard Jazz played thisgreat since the 50"s
I still can''t believe how amazing this kid is....
That's it !!! I QUIT !! This kid is amazing !!
Joey Alexander is a phenomenal little guy with phenomenal talent. Released his first album at the tender age of 11. Being nominated for Grammy Awards, had the opportunity to play at some of the worlds best jazz venues and the list goes on. He is a true prodigy and a beautiful gift from God. God bless you always little buddy.
And the first Southeast Asian artist to perform live at Grammy Award.
@@blueice472 Most definitely. What an amazing achievement.
and its not just formula jazz, its full of new and interesting ideas that draw you into the music.
Jazz is assured a great one. A musician with soul, a gift to us all.
I have to catch my breath during this arresting and commanding performance. Simply breathtaking to witness this from such a young child!!!! Radiant, striking and impressive command of the keyboard. I could go on and on, and on........wow
The greatest jazz pianist since the piano was invented ;)
This, and the other concert with Joey with different musicians in this festival, should be released as album. Very enjoyable and playful.
Love, love, Joey. He's a humble spirit and incredibly gifted! The future of jazz music is in capable hands of Joey Alexander!
ABSOLUTELY!! MY SENTIMENTS EXACTLY =o)
There are very few exceptionality spirit gifted people in our lifetime. Can you imagine how the jazz greats ...etc..are enjoying this spectacular hip cat. What a joy! Not to appreciate this artist only reveals the obvious in our world.
I just want to cry... he's too much!!!
Friends used to tell me (before Joey was born) that they've met some unbelievable musicians in Indonesia, I didn't believe them then... I'm dumbfounded!
Joey,yuhan kim,jesus molina,juatin Schultz..never had there been talents with maturity at such young ages.keep jazz alive go joey
Is this ziggy marley?
Joey's depth of jazz is out of normalcy given his age! He has been able to amass incredible finesse of jazz quite early in his life, and I am yet to closely follow him and see where he graduates to in his midlife!!
OMG, this is the best anywhere, I am totally stunned, bravo Joe Alexander, phenomenal playing and jazz sense, what a shining star, I hope others get to see this, pure genius, really love his playing, the solo track at 42:00 is mind-blowing, then into the baddest Giant Steps, simply the best!
Of all the things a 10 year old to understand, dynamic balance and accompianing a jazz bass soloist were not what I expected.
Joey has those long fingers like McCoy Tyner, Oscar Peterson and Ahmad Jamal!!!! We are lucky to see a child who appreciates serious music.
Rick Jordon his father is NOT professional musician. Not long after joey had small keyboard, he played much better than his father. Joey virtualy self taught, because in Indonesia, only a few jazz pianist that can play better than joey.
Rick Jordon this is joey father (DS Denny Sila) interview:
MP: Are you a musician?
DS: I'm not a professional musician. But I do play a bit of guitar and piano.
MP: You helped Joey to get started?
Yes, that's how I got Joey to play. I'd play something at the piano and he'd ask me to move over. Then he'd then play the same idea.
But he sounded a lot better than me! This was when he was 6. What happened really was Joey couldn't stand listening to me!
So he decided to play instead. My bad playing was a blessing in disguise.
Jesus. His Round Midnight rendition is amazing.
Joey also played it at the Lincoln Center. Three times. Everytime he interpreted it DIFFERENTLY! Have you heard this? Good Lord! At 10 years old! th-cam.com/video/W2bUPjG-Vno/w-d-xo.html
at his age ???? how come ? , just amazing ..speechless
You are such a gift, Joey!. listening your music and seeing your performance really incredible feeling!
God has Blessed this Jazz Man. . . . .
I have not listened to any music except Joey music since i found Joey accidently 2 months ago
Me too, in my case, it's been one one month since I found Joey. He's just incredible!
This kid makes me love Jazz again...so much power and spirit in that tiny body..
Przyszłość jazzowego geniuszu Joey to unikat na skalę tego stylu 🎹🎧👍 mega talent pianistyczny 👪👍🎹❤️
The balance between the three musicians was great ! Led by this amazing boy !
The more you know about the complexity of playing jazz, the more you understand how amazing this young man is. Normally a sceptic, I have come to the conclusion there must be a supernatural explanation!
Joey
Joey you are a joy
more than a boy
a music machine
made mellow
by jazz
everything as is
or just as.
Joey.. keep playing your music.. make happy the people whom jazzy.. wonderful Joey
Something is seriously wrong with the way music is appreciated in this day and age. I mean an individual possessing a quarter of lil' Joey Alexander's talent and skills gets hundreds of millions (even billions) of views, while this child prodigy gets a lil more than a hundred thousand. . .
He's gonna make plenty music playing jazz in his lifetime.
" God Bless You, Joey."
God bless this kid.
This kid unites sweden and denmark. Must be special.
I cannot get enough of this GENIUS
AAAAAAAYYYYYYEEEEEEE! JOEY YOU ARE REMARKABLE.....It is simply astonishing that a child has the depth, maturity, facility, and range of chord use and jazz vocabularity he has. And he moves about with freedom and ease. In all of history I dare say no one has sprung forth a child able to do whatever he wants in the very intricate world of jazz. JOEY is constantly and perfectly composing as he goes, using a language that normally requires decades to form. I LOVE THIS YOUNG MAN......
joey espectacular genius kid....great future for him. God bless him.
Wonderful playing, it does make me question if reincarnation is a reality and he has brought some knowledge forward. I can think of no other possible way that this super intuitive, young rounded musician can achieve this standard so early on. Truly fabulous.
His feet even barely touch the floor...yet his tunes surely floored us!
What a gift for people like me--Thank you Joey
They say 'seeing is believing', I see but I don't believe.Pure genius !
Words can't describe my feelings watching this amazing young jazz talent, I'm at awe!
Just caught Joey live for the first time here in Washington DC last Friday ... I have been following him for a while now but seeing him live ... wow ... what a talent!!!!
Now I can't go out cause too green (... with envy). The first time in Europe in the summer of 2014, when Joey visited Denmark, I didn't know about him yet and the USA was too far for me.
I live in DC, I'm looking for his tour schedule because I would love to attend his concert. I just found out about him on YT Jarasum Jazz Festival. I cried 😢
Great bassist and drummer, too. Joey plays piano like the late michel petrucciani.
I never thought I could say Bill Evans and anyone else in the same sentence but now there is Joey Alexander
Really awesome recording quality! The tones of the bass and drums are excellent. The kid on the piano is mind blowing good!
Nowadays the word awesome is used so often, but this performance is absolutely totally Awesome!
OMG - Joey Alexander is phenomenal!!! Can't believe he is for real!!! AND - the bass player, whose name I could not catch, is the BEST I have ever heard in my 50 years of listening to jazz!!!
Mathias...Vincent?
:)
Mattias Svensson.
I do not understand how he can be so great at his age but he is. He is up with best of them.
He should not even have the strength. He has to be an alien LOL
Can't think of any word to describe this performance apart from awesome!
Amazed of the level of playing at such a young age. One has to sit an admire without questioning how he achieved this with no formal piano training and just enjoy the beauty of the sound he projects as well as the other two great musicians.
Joey the next World Jazz ambassador
Joey, if you put this out as a live album guess who would be first in line. Inspirational jazz of the highest quality!
What an incredible gifted mind!
that was a vibrant introduction LOL this kid is amazing.
Brilliant setting of It Might As Well Be Spring (in seven!)
I just saw him perform in my university, he's so talented
Baby yoda of jazz
:)
The kid's coming to the Musical Instrument Museum here in Phoenix and I will be there without a doubt. This is seeing the future of jazz right here and now.
Joey Alexander the Great 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
the best trio i have ever heard and seen .... keep playing best standards .... looooove this. excellent recording quality.
The last number (before the encore) is one of the best things I've heard in my life, and I'm ooold!
F A N T A S T I C !!!!! I am spreechless about Joey.....
Fantastic! This has absolutely made my day.
Saw Joey A. Do concert with full orchestra..so Amazing, Out of this world. Played a T.Monk piece..haven't stopped telling people and wondering where this magic comes from. A genius!
+Joanne Alberstein It really does seem like magic. But to be fair I have to admit that all highly skilled musicians seem like magicians to me.
I think the fact that Joey can play as well as he does suggests two things: First, he is a genius, maybe even at the level of Mozart. Second, musical maturity does not respect chronological age.
Joanne Alberstein , please, what orchestra did he play with ???
Incredible Joey ... I always amaze how he plays piano plus well personality!
42:48 Round Midnight (Thelonious Monk) beautiful !!
The chosen one!
Imagine this man at 35 years old! I I cant wait to see where his music goes! He is a treasure! A gift from God!
The second coming. Like Jesus.
the special one
What a wonderful piano prodigy…☮🔥
Amazing Joey ! Saya amat kagum padamu.. Terimakasih.
Fantástico esse grande pianista, símbolo da evolução da especie humana. Quanta droga outros tiveram que consumir para alcançar esse nível de inspiração !
Abençoados sejam seus pais que viabilizaram a manifestação dessa gigantesca musicalidade.
Eterna gratidão.
ce gamin est un extraterrestre ,il ne joue pas du jazz : il est le jazz.!!. merci Joey
We get to see him in person next month...can't wait
Where?
Nina Desianti: I saw him last week (March 11, 2017) in Bern, Switzerland. It was not his best performance. He played like he was looking for his own style, which is fine for his age. It will be interesting to hear him in 5 or 10 years. Nina, will you share your impression of his performance?
Interesting. Thanks for letting us know.
Joey you are incredible...Salam manis dari Switzerland
It's natural for life to produce exceptional things.
My 1 year old cat is usually chill. When I played your music, she tried to climb from her spot on the windowsill through the screen. I had to close the window. Thanks, Joey;p Love your music and sidemen.
Wow. What else can one say? Sounds fantastic, fellas, I love this so much. Wow. Amazing abilities.
They are fantastic musicians!
