That’s sorta what jazz is. Good to see modern musicians are still bringing that genre to today’s listeners. A little Coltrane type shifting between melodies.
@@littlelamb2112 jazz is going back into the mainstream slowly. With some people adding jazz improv in their music like Charlie Puth and some doing bossa nova nowadays like the song "Girl From Brazil" which was huge which samples "The Girl From Ipanema" It's here, people are slowly starting to appreciate it in the mainstream and using it to make pop lmao, it's all good tho, music is varied and that's why it's fun.😅
He either is now or is soon to become the Art Tatum of the 21st Century - he's playin' stuff I've never heard before and I've been a jazz piano player since 1955.
Misheck Kaluba wish i had anything near like this piano :((( at least i have an acoustic one, very out of tune, used up and from the 60s, but an acoustic piano.
@@Vininn126 I dont even remember writing this comment tbh, but I think I was just commenting on how people will "woo" at anything. Although you're right that first "woo" is when he goes to III7
He makes it look simple, but there is so much knowledge and skill! And, of course, feeling and control - he always knows exactly where he is and where he is heading to. Of course, he does not go a straight line, he may spontaneously sway, or even change the destination but always staying in control. He just breathes and sings, not plays.
I love how he quickly builds and cuts the dynamic level- like a singer would- makes his playing more intense. And what a wonderfully acute sense of touch!
This man has got to be named a national treasure. Really, an International treasure, but the world is hardly ready to get organized for that. And arguing against that international recognition thing, the travel might just wear him out sooner. Better that he should get to live comfortably and go where he wants to go, and continue playing. Stay healthy and carry on, Mr. Henry.
A Letter to Cory Henry: I hear you Cory! And I want to whole world to hear you! Your music truly comes from the Soul! It is cleansing and healing and what the entire world needs right now! I am an older lady who had been following your career for many years! So, when I finally heard you would be in Chicago, performing at Millenium Park, I went downtown! The crowd consisted of every kind of people! They were all vibing together on one accord. It's like the entire Chicago stopped the violence, and all the other negativity during your performance! Your music brought our segregated city together like I have never seen before! I offered to take you and your band to dinner sometime and you said you would hold me to it! We will surely be anticipating your return to Chicago someday! You were so gracious and even took a picture with me, as we lined up to buy your album! Thanks and God Speed to you, your band the Funk Apostles, and your entire listening audience!
I had to cut it off at 0:46, WWAAAAAY too much syrup in this boy's playing. The Doctor told me to cut down on the sugar intake, and Cory was just gonna throw me into the most insane BINGE!! MY GOD THIS BOY CAN PLAY A PIANO!
I got mad respect for this guy Cory is simply incredible. New York's got it going on with all of these stellar first class musicians. Great musicality, perfect pitch, great timing, approach, discipline, & just pure enthusiasim makes a great musician.
+abi samraj I think you read too much and got your people and comments wrong - check yourself! (clue: I'm not the one who said he's got perfect pitch...)
Amazing grace;how sweet the sound. This is where we church folks came from.this is the heart and soul of the church; where God brought us from,Amen somebody.
Simply anointed! He plays with such passion that 'it seems' that he brings tears to his own eyes. Always keep God first and remember that only what you do for Christ will last. Love ya DOC :-)
Funny you say this because I saw Cory live and he did get moved to tears by the end of the performance. He brings the spirit to this world strongly, no doubt!
Boy I wish I could play like him for real for real! I've started playing when I was nine years old. And I kinda lost track as I got older. So y'all pray for me that I be as good as cory henry on the piano, organ ,and keyboard.
One other thing! I read some of the other commnets. They were finding it difficult with trying to describe what they heard while listening to Cory. Basically what he does is "indescribably other worldly and anointed. I read somewhere that both his parents are deceased! I think they both died when he was quite young. They were both in the church and I thought I also read his mom was a pianist. Apparently, he was raised by his grandmother! There is a video of him sitting at the organ at about 5 or 6 years old! I think his mother is shone standing near him in the background. I have never met his parents, but somehow I imagine both his parents still watching and protecting him! There was an unusual aura hovering over Millenium Park as I heard him perform with his band, The Funk Apostles! The entire world should have been listening! That concert brought a lot of different types of people together in the segregated and violent City of Chicago, Illinois! I hope the world will continue listen to and support all the concerts of Cory Henry and the Funk Apostles.We anticipate his return to Chicago Someday! God Speed, Cory!
Man I watch so much of Cory video I'm obsessed lol. Brother your parents would be proud of you. God bless you Cory Henry. I pray I can play half as good as you one day
He’s crying at the end because he truly played unto the One who gave him the gift. Jesus Molina does the same. Both are Christians. AMAZING talent and skill.
Cory is such an amazingly talented musician that he leaves you delightfully shaking your head from the disbelief of how good he really is. Such an incredible talent.
I think the phrase pure genius gets thrown around a lot, and it now has not enough meaning to convey how I feel about what I just heard. Bravo, Cory Henry. You are a true master of your craft.
I truly believe some people just come on youtube or social media sites just to hit the "dislike" button. How can anyone seriously hear this & dislike it? This guy is beyond amazing & humble. Dislike or hate on people who suck or are overjoyed, not on great artists. Cory is already in his short life one of the GREATEST to ever do it. A true prodigy. Let's celebrate & appreciate this musical genius.
Sam Cooke Lol that’s literally the only thing he’s doing that isn’t genius. I’m pretty sure tapping your foot while playing isn’t very challenging or even innovative.
Here's the thing: It is difficult enough to play the piano that well, and with such dynamic range. But Cory also plays organ---which is entirely different in so many ways. To master both is beyond incredible--and he does it like its nothing. Pure, undeniable genius.
The piano sounds in the hands of Cory like it doesn't in any other person's hands. There's something about this style of articulating music that piano trained players don't explore. It's the fluidity of chord transitions that prepares complex runs to explode with immense dexterity, it's where words don't describe the whole package he's able to deliver!
To not look at the keyboard and play like that ... proves the music is already in him and the piano is simply the tool to express it. On the Hammond he is yet more impressive I think. The videos of Cory at 3 and 4 years old playing are amazing.
Just listened to you play this song on the organ counting off with your fingers at approximately the age of 3 or 4. What a blessed talent, in which you've continued to develop and secure. We continue to enjoy your gift. God bless you some more!!!!
Corey is a master at staying inside the song while exploring the fringes!
Well said!

I've noticed it on his first note
Funny to find this video. I was the FOH engineer for this concert. So, appreciate you liking the mic'ing technique. :)

Check out Jacob Collier while you're at it. The two of them are the best in the biz!
woooooooooow
that's truly amaizing
His creativity is amazing
Lol
How old are you bruv?
The way it devolves into insanity while staying perfectly in time makes me feel some sort of way.
I've got the same piano he is playing, but it makes a different noise when I play it
Misheck Kaluba wish i had anything near like this piano :((( at least i have an acoustic one, very out of tune, used up and from the 60s, but an acoustic piano.
You not cory hendry its your hands😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
What piano is he playing?
There must be something wrong with the piano then
Bro, that's one really expensive piano you have there!
You would tear up just about any black church with this....before the preacher started preaching. I would love to experience that one day....
Sweet mixture of blues 💙 and jazz.The next Art Tatum?? I think so.❤❤❤
*Plays the IV chord*

Amen! For our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ

Wow, what a fucking pagan
After a year and 2 months of watching I finally can do that run at 2:18🤣
Good for u
Lol
that's some oscar peterson shit
You bad then....that part is DOPE
I love the one at 3:06 WOW
This was the first song his mum taught him that’s why he broke down. He just needs to know his mum would be so proud of him. Blessings from London.

Thanks Bert for bringing me here!
The Heavenly Father 🔱 has blessed Cory Henry to play the organ and piano in the mighty name of JESUS 👑! !
This is the most crazy and most amazing Amazing Grace on piano I've ever heard in my life. Speechless.
He was born a boy but over time is becoming a piano. Once he's got pedals for feet the metamorphosis is complete 🎹 🦶🏻🦶
Cory is such an amazingly talented musician that he leaves you delightfully shaking your head from the disbelief of how good he really is. Such an incredible talent.
Thank you Cory. Oscar would be proud!!!!!
I watch this video at least once a year.
Dang was he crying? The greatest keyboardist of our generation right there.
That was worth the admission costs alone ! Simply beautiful.
Yeah! Just brilliant!

you're overthinking

extra ordinary good version - I love it
wow..its a big dream for me for having such as beautifull jazzy worship like you sir...
So often heard but I can't say why it is so good. It must be magic.
Sebastian Freisleben the answer is right in what the song is about my friend :)
What a beast! This guy is supernatural!
Stop it! No-one can be this good, wow!

Let the Lord use you, Baby! You bettah PLAY!
😁😁😁
Whew! Nice sound
Graceful and amazing. Exactly as described. Fabulous at every level of fabulous!
hmm the roots is in Cory Henry, I felt that. Gifted brother.
Just amazing !!! 👏 ☺️
Incredible!!!!
Everybody please download this video on your computers. If someday TH-cam dies, I am still going to need to watch this on a daily basis.
I feel like he offers up a piece of his soul when he plays for people. Goosebumps my dude. Tears maybe..
3:17 to 3:22 .... how powerful was that... God bless you Henry
Woke up listening to that tribute video first. Then I pad around looking for anything with Corey Henry stamped on it.
George Duke ofour time. Cory is a beast who's polished his gifting.
Absoluuuuuutely Fantastic!!!!!!!
He embraces gospel and that makes him even more special
!st time hearing this young man and have to get any and all of his recordings. Now I know why I love jazz!
his walk down the piano at 2:43 is UNREAL!
so unreall !
Shmian I think I'll post a small video of what he's playing right there. It's not really that complex actually.
So f*****g good, I've started to write it down, but still very hard to do it!

All Oscar Peterson drop 2 style
I had to watch it 3 times in a row
to think that i got to play this exact piano that this absolute beauty and art was created on. it’s a very very nice piano
Stunning work brother. Lots of Love from London.
It doesn't get better than this.. Indeed, this is truly raw talent... Simple Beautiful...
Not raw talent but rather years upon years of dedication and practice
Wow!! Soooo Nice, technical and inspiring....
Why dislike this? Frickin Awesome!
He unreal...and thats a understatement. Amazing Grace played amazingly and the sound was too sweet
Been watching this man for a good while now. Out of the box it's where greatness lives, & he's truly figured that out
3:12 gave me chills
the whole freakin thing gave me chills

Stop speaking about sound, shit, listen To the Music ! So stupid you are
Only God could give him such a stunning talent.
I really don't think it gets better than this..rich, sweet and full of inspiration..
Thanks Cory !
Beautiful.
