Breathtaking. Such an idiosyncratic, unique voice. The level of risk in his playing is other level...comping, voicings, use of open strings...unreal. Great flow on his lines too, so unpredictable. Total intimacy with the instrument...flawless
This is a new level....Kurt plays his language at such a high level of originality. always...fresh and creative. Really stunning AND soulful. Thank you Kurt
..wow, Kurt is out of control, he has set the bar so high for other players, pushing us to work harder towards our goals...my teacher before Berklee back in high school, Jack Hotop, was always pushing his students too, practice every day, try to listen to the masters, from Segovia to Montgomery, Martino and Pass, and he knew about Clapton and Hendrix too mind you..and do it seriously..I wish he could have heard this performance by Kurt, I think he would have really enjoyed it..this is the kind of kick in this ass to get you thinking and working harder..monumental must listening..New York September 10, 2020..
Absolutely spectacular. I can't say enough good things about Kurt. Just found him last night and I'm absolutely blown away. I didn't know there was more than one Allan Holdsworth!!
Cada vez que escucho a Rosenwinkel me pregunto de dónde viene ese sonido peculiarísimo, precioso, incomparable. Del trabajo, del genio, de la persistencia.
I Think His way of playing at the end is a kind of inspiration of Rene Thomas's version th-cam.com/video/_YxI4-mpYpc/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=Ren%C3%A9Thomas-Topic
This version, and the one here by Pasquale Grasso are very different. But both are mind-blowing. Not to mention beautiful versions Monk would have loved.

@@jazzapv Sorry, I was thinking of another Paul Motion Album, Monk in Motion. I had forgotten he was in the Electric Bebop Band with Wolfgang Muthspiel.Thank you for pointing out my error.
it sounds like engaged octaver plus some sort of attack suppressor like SG-1 or some sort. Very special tone but it is not clean guitar tone there is some fx in it.
He uses a pog pedal to shave off the attack and a compressor after to shorten the delay time from his picking to the sound. There are some videos of him describing it
Thanks, guys! I’m usually pretty good at analyzing effects but that is super subtle. I thought it was more technique. Like a really accurate simultaneous pick/hammer on.
Because being musical is not about how many odd voicings and notes you can play. He ruins the song here. I have heard him play great stuff before - but this is awful.
@gilibertopaparauchas5959 his boss oc-2 (or oc-3, i forget which one) has a threshold setting internally that you can change to only turn the octave on below a certain pitch. pretty fun
Kurt's version of Round Midnight is covering a lot of material - chord melody, voice leading, counterpoint, improvisation, call and response etc. Yeap, you could say, it is an solo guitar performance + chord melody. You got it right.
Books by jazz guitarist Martin Taylor, Joe Pass, Jimmy Wyble - I suggest getting books by Martin Taylor and finding a teacher in a location where you live. I hope it helps.@@freshlumpia8202
Nah it's an SG200. The 2000 is much fancier looking with a carved top, split inlays & gold hardware. SG200 can still be obtained for fairly modest money.

Yes you got it you're so right 👍
Kurt Rosenwinkel is one of those guitarists that I could just sit and watch do this all day long.
When one can ally technical ability with soulful, creative and unique ideas. Very few musicians strike that elusive balance.
Extremely fluid and musical chord/melody approach! I'll want to seek out more from Kurt. Thanks!
This is a new level....Kurt plays his language at such a high level of originality.
always...fresh and creative. Really stunning AND soulful. Thank you Kurt
Yeah Kurt. One of the alltime best you are my friend. Second gen post Metheny genius. Great
mamma mia !!!!! bravissimo
5* superb. He would make Monk proud.

Yep. It's not just being able to play the notes. It's about phrasing and color. Step daughter attended Berklee. Vocal performance.
Incredible articulation at that tempo, Ben. Bravo!
The man has got such a UNIQUE sound, ALIENS can identify it from outer space
Rick Beato plays with a similar tone imo for his scale videos
If we're ever being invaded by those outer space beings, we better find Mr. Rosenwinkel lmao
Absolutely spectacular. I can't say enough good things about Kurt. Just found him last night and I'm absolutely blown away. I didn't know there was more than one Allan Holdsworth!!
I've heard him do this with chorus effect on the guitar. I have to say I prefer this. What style, and technique. Great performance, and arrangement.
Cada vez que escucho a Rosenwinkel me pregunto de dónde viene ese sonido peculiarísimo, precioso, incomparable. Del trabajo, del genio, de la persistencia.
Hi Kurt! Excellent job. Can’t wait to see you in March 2024 in Morristown, NJ with Wynton Marsalis and the Lincoln Center Jazz Orchestra.
So masterful but still soaked in emotion Kurt!
that was amazing - creativity just out of this world.
Outstanding! A Virtuoso!
Great tone, great language, great musician. Have I already told you that he is great?
What a beatifull sound and also playeng
A musical collage of excellence and authenticity
Super Kurt !! Nei primi 10 ti metto…☀️☀️☀️☀️☀️
Astonishing, such a great tone and touch, it's amazing! Thank you Kurt
Such amazing rendition. Cheers from Brazil.
Играет в кайф, и звучит в кайф.....редкость....просто замечательно......

Most things have been done before.
I only see two hands. This guy probably has multiple brains jamming together
This took my breath away - just bagged a couple of tickets to London gig coming up and cannot wait
Awesomeness!
Very nice Kurt.
round midnight..sob kills it
Excellent Kurt as usual !
Really digging the new sound with the swells(?)...
Beautiful performance and awesome guitar too!
Hello, ça c'est ce que l'on peut appeler de l'art !.
a master at pulling-off
This version, and the one here by Pasquale Grasso are very different. But both are mind-blowing. Not to mention beautiful versions Monk would have loved.
I love you Kurt
Pure beauty ❤
yeah like the train!
Beautiful tone and laid back feel
and safe to a pretend list! love it
Fantastic player that is!

Amazing, I think I heard him playing this (very similar take) on a Paul Motian album.
Attila Vaczi that was Bill Frisell
No, it wasn't. Check the print on the cover. There were two guitarists in that album and the other one wasn't Bill Frisell.

@@johnblackwell2065 Thank you, I shall check Monk in motion out.
Sounds great!
That’s straight off of Monk’s recording. “The Essential”
I'd say he's the best of the modern players
you obviously have not seen Justin Bieber play guitar
He's really good! Also check out Pasquale Grasso
Antoine Boyer

The best!
...and the rest is history
Very inspiring ! 👌
Nice One. .. Great Sound' s and Touch Filling on Guitar Mood ... ☺😊😀/👍👌👏
Great performance thx, where might find the transcript if any
KURT!!!!!!
I would call this a 'varnished' tone.
nice and refreshing!
Im at home but i feel like calling the waiter to my table for another bottle
LOL
Unbelievable. Ended sort of John Barry-esque.
it sounds like engaged octaver plus some sort of attack suppressor like SG-1 or some sort. Very special tone but it is not clean guitar tone there is some fx in it.
I’ve never heard an attack like that. Sounds like he’s picking with a feather.
It comes from his octave pedal
He uses a pog pedal to shave off the attack and a compressor after to shorten the delay time from his picking to the sound. There are some videos of him describing it
Thanks, guys! I’m usually pretty good at analyzing effects but that is super subtle. I thought it was more technique. Like a really accurate simultaneous pick/hammer on.
Kurt talks about his POG here - th-cam.com/video/UXDVQcTkoFw/w-d-xo.html
I wish I knew his guitar tech - the instrument is set up to a tee...all the notes ring loud and clear and evenly.
Capo!
Beasting it!
Woah.
24 thumbs down can post some own "'Round midnight" cover please :D ?! Kurt is killing !!!
I saw that and could not believe it. Who are these poeple with the thumbs down? Sheesh...
@@MonitorSmith Critics are useless

Very enjoyable! I do not recognize the particular guitar. Nice jazz tone, but a slim body - nice whatever it is.
Its a Yamaha SG 2000
Sorry a SG 200

I was a little tired of listening jazz guitar and then Kurt Rosenwinkel...
Beautiful. The bass notes sound like octaved, could it be?
no
I hear it too
the 6th string is definitively octaved, wonder how he does it
@gilibertopaparauchas5959 his boss oc-2 (or oc-3, i forget which one) has a threshold setting internally that you can change to only turn the octave on below a certain pitch. pretty fun
Great playing, as always, but I can’t get over how much he uses his left thumb! Very unusual
I used to be able to do that before all the years of drug abuse took my ability. Hendrix did that as well.
What do you call this type of playing? Is it chord melody? Anybody tell me pls..
Kurt's version of Round Midnight is covering a lot of material - chord melody, voice leading, counterpoint, improvisation, call and response etc. Yeap, you could say, it is an solo guitar performance + chord melody. You got it right.
Do you know anyone that teaches these particular things? thnks

I call it amazing!
gear???
My god his hands were moving so fast while the narrator was talking…wow
He gets a real thick full sound for a little solid body like that.
shortscale, HH, touch, settings
Uow!!!
👏👏👏👏👏
Its beautiful and just sooo magical as always....but what interests me now is what kind of tattoo he's got there xD

Perfection. And millions of kids waste their views and inspiration on "Buckethead"...
I'm going to burn all my guitars after watching this.
Kurt is a great player. I prefer ballads of this type to be in time and done like a singer would sing them. This version was too choppy for me.
