    Did June Lee just show up at your house? Without any prior knowledge? Are we all in danger of this happening to us as well?

    @peterteaches 5 ปีที่แล้ว +119

    June, yeah I think a lot of us out there would like to hear you singing and playing piano, it's very unique when you do. Loved the rare videos where you do.

    I'm a 67 year old jazz arranger. The future of jazz is safe! Really touched me, thanks. :-)

    During the'Blackbird' improv I didn't realize I was holding my breath until they stopped. Wow, real humble talent, what a blessing.

    What June said near the beginning of the video about not really knowing if he knew enough about jazz when he first started really inspired me. I've been listening to and researching jazz for several years now, but I haven't quite dived in yet because I'm afraid I won't be good or I won't know what to do. But this, this really gives me the courage to try because I know I'm not alone and my fears and doubts shouldn't let me get in the way of myself.

    Can I get a 10 hour Aimee + June duet concert video please?! Thanks!
    Seriously though, two of my absolute favorite youtube music people together in one video? Brilliant. Loved this interview. We've come full circle, and now June is the interviewee!

  • @yomega69
    @yomega69 5 ปีที่แล้ว +33

    That section from 19:05 on is amazing. I have "perfect" pitch but damn that is just insane processing of his brain. "Real-time transcription" indeed! I feel like you have to know music, theory, jazz so well to be able to do that.

    22:47 piano line then June’s vocal line. Excellent. Then the upper register piano solo is fresh. Oo, chromatic then the mid register lines.

    @jeeenah1 5 ปีที่แล้ว +8

    The level of talent sitting behind those keys is unbelievable. Both of you are *beyond* talented, and both of you have a gift. Some people are more blessed than others, aside from practicing and learning; some just have it and you guys do. Aimee You know I’m a huge fan, and I’m a huge fan of June Lee as well now. Thank you for sharing him with us, thank you for all you do and all that you share. You’re an inspiration. That Jacob Collier tune pierced my soul and made me cry. It was so (for lack of a word that doesn’t exist) beautiful. Just wow. Wish my dad was alive to share this stuff with. The talent here is just sick!!!!!!!!!!! Loved this!

  • @Keefralei
    @Keefralei 5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    You two should absolutely do an album together. Not too fussily arranged. Loved the fresh impro jazz vibe on blackbird. Two too cool for school guys. That was sublime. I’m smiling and warm inside. I can imagine you both, grand piano and mike each, with a hot but sensitive rhythm section all creating spontaneous joy. Heaven, I’m in heaven etc could be one number (Cheek to Cheek of course). Only great melodies need apply! Thanks Aimee & June

  • @BlackWhiteCloud
    @BlackWhiteCloud 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Ok. I didn't think I was going to cry but that Blackbird interpretation got me.

    Aimee, that was some enchanting. I so hope to hear more singing from June also. He sounds so nice singing solo. This is my first time hearing that. I've always heard the multi-tracked June previously.

    Thank you Aimee - Thank you June Lee. So beautiful and inspired! Jacob is such a gift and I really love the way you two pull Once You apart and slowly explore it - I could listen to this all day any day. Blackbird too - just wow.

    Went to listen to this song at the prompting of this interview -- I am kind of blown away; first by Jacob C. and now by Aimee and June Lee playing/singing it. What a gorgeous song.

  • @ndykman_pdx
    @ndykman_pdx 5 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    I found this strangely moving. I identified with the feeling that you are merely okay, because you are aware of how much talent is there is and all the things you can't do. I would so very much encourage Mr. Lee to record more of his own performances as I think many would appreciate them.

  • @pgajer
    @pgajer 5 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    You both touched me by being so true and authentic, humble and
    playful while expressing yourself ... in so touching and beautiful way ...
    The chords June played at the very beginning of the first tune with these
    enchanted silence moments were so deliciously beautiful ...
    Jacob Collier was so right saying that you can offer something to the world
    right NOW. No need to wait ...
    As I listened to June, saying that he is looking for his voice and needs to work
    on his technique, I thought about Saties' Gymnopedie No. 1, which is an example
    of amazingly beautiful piece of piano music which is technically not complicated
    at all ... yet touched hearts of so many ...
    June, please share your music with the world, regardless of how simple you
    perceive it to be. Sometimes less is more. You are amazing !

  • @davidfleuchaus
    @davidfleuchaus ปีที่แล้ว +1

    16:00
    Perfect Pitch
    June’s intense exposure to piano at ages 4-6 likely helped.
    17:17 is a key point. I’ve had this experience too.
    19:06 that’s it. I got there for a while but practical life got in the way.
    19:42 I disagree June. I hear your voice already. But you can’t even notice it because you are surrounded by you all the time.

  • @VirtuousPraiseworthy
    @VirtuousPraiseworthy 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    How I never knew about your channel until two weeks ago I don't know! You've taken Marian McPartland's Piano Jazz to a whole new level! Would be hard to describe how much inspiration and happiness your channel provides. You're a master teacher and I don't have enough hours a day to catch up on the years of videos I've missed. Thanks, Aimee.
