There is a thing that many people don't notice is how Rick is looking to Aydın while Aydın is talking or playing. Rick usually smiling with full of respect and love. This is not just Aydın is the greatest musician and not just they are old friends. One of the reason is Rick really loves the music he really enjoys of it. Second and the most important thing is Rick is a very very good person, he is full of kindness. It's make me feel good and happy just knowing these kind of good people living with us. Thank you Rick. Thank you for this channel and thank you for your existence.
What a great and modest,kind hearted true artist. Aydin Esen....It was one of my highlights in my life to have the chance to listen to what he has to say about his concepts.Your channel and teachings also have been a tremendous inspiration to music for me too..Thank you Rick Beato....
Rick, Thank for introducing Aydin Esen. He is an amazing talent. Great mind and completely cool. He has proved that there are no limits to traditional harmony. Very inspiring..
I am an older person and coming into a true passion for music late. Most of this interview is so over my head right now... and yet I feel moved. I don't know really how to describe this stuff in a professional way, but emotionally some of the construction of the vhs replay is like the feeling you might get watching a car racing to beat a train. You can feel tension in the build-up like an incredibly devastating crash is going to occur. And the brain rebels at the horror impending... and then the car races across the tracks a split second in advance of the train and suddenly everything is unexpectedly beautiful. And there is nothing but celebration, the release of the building tension and a joyous outcome. This is so "not pop". It's an adventure for the ear and mind that I never before knew was out there. I may never be able to understand it, and I certainly will never be able to play it, but oh my God! Thank you for the introduction to the possibilities and intricacies. I just don't have the words.
Dave Liebman and Allan Holdsworth are among the few improvisers who think the same way Aydin does. But Aydin does so with an unmatched clarity. Brilliant!
Thank you very much Rick for introducing Aydin Esen to me/us the audience, it is a great pleasure listening to Aydins music both here and on all the many different videos there is on the net! A fantastic incredible improviser/composer with seemingly a enormus knowledge!,Here it is specially interesting to hear his comments on how to use so called dissonances in a tonal melodic way... Also nice when he points out in the begeinning talking about the minor scales that he always use both F and F# in a Aminor situation, this kind of talk is very important I think for all the less expirienced players and also for everybody to remember... I would say that the same thing goes for example in minor seven b5 chords for instance to use both seconds, Bb B natural on a Aminor7b5.... - any how a very inspiering video, and that goes for many other videos you have made Rick a remarkable contribution to the interessted musicians I must say, really great that you are giving out all these facts in such a clear way. As I am also teaching a bit, it is a gold mine to go an take a look in all your videos when I need to adress some of these typical topics, - thanks a lot and all the best from Tomas, in Copenhagen Denmark
This is full of life lessons; pure greatness. So honored and inspired to attend Maestro Esen’s concerts. Mr. Beato cannot thank you enough; you trigger the music in so many of us...
Rick, I subscribed to Nuryl for my grandson when he was 11 months (now 13 mo). I had not heard of Aydin prior, but looked him up based on hearing him there. What's so funny is that while my grandson enjoys everything in the playlist, you can really see a change in his facial expression when Aydin's music comes on, it really gets his attention more than anything else. I feel like I'm watching his brain switch into a different gear. ;-)
Thank you again and again for all the brilliance and beauty you keep putting out into the world. I am learning soo much from these feasts of sound and coherence. I am salivating listening to Ayden's work from 1987.
I love people like this guy who are individuals, unique, with charisma. 14:33 "One side says it's the old world, the other side says it's today". Genius! Amazing talent!!
Can't tell you how greatful I am for all the knowledge I've acquired thanks to your videos. Immense progress is happening. Neurons are blasting and I'm as happy as I ever could be!
I love how Aydin looks far deeper into harmony and the concepts of music in his understanding. Its like he is working his way back to the big bang in one way and complete enlightenment looking towards the future at the same time.
Perhaps you are trying to say that music points to God? There is an "All in All" quality to music. We know we are tapping into an eternal essence even as we know we are finite.
Perfect timing, Rick. I just finished with your Bossa Nova video, made a cup of coffee and needed something to accompany the coffee when the notification of your new SOUNDING OFF video arrived.
Rick, this is simply AMAZING. Ive been quarantined for a month. Ive watched a giant chunk of your content. I just started digging in to sounding off one after another. This is seriously the best content on youtube. period. Ive purchased music from four separate bands just this week from bands id never heard of until finding your channel. So much of this is over my head, but i cant watch enough. Thank you sir!!!
Rick, thank you for sharing your friendship with Aydin with us. I wish I could describe exactly how good I feel when I hear him play. But just ordinary words can't do it. What a humble man, too. Please just know that I'm always moved after hearing him play and also now after hearing him speak about music. All your videos are great. Thanks again for doing them!
Brilliant!! Best blog so far, so much to take from this and look into. I am so inspired and Aydin is one of my real favorite people in all of music...Thank you so much Rick !!!
Great interview! There was article by Keyboard Magazine years ago that had on the front cover both hands on the keyboard with handcuffs. The article was about improvising. In other words, uncuff the cuffs. I love what Aydin said about "passing sounds."
I absolutely loved this! ...especially at 14:27 where the strange neighbor adds something to your Am. My day is off to a productive start, Thank you Rick and Aydin!
Fantastic perspective on simply enjoying creativity, innovation and the work that must be put into always evolving as a listener first then a musician. Thanks to you both - learning more and more
The wild thing about this is that those of us who went through music college will have usually encountered that one guy who can Be Music like this man, Aydin Esen (although to be fair, this fella is a level above my equivalent). I was in uni with a fellow known as Doc. I shan't write his real name as the reason he isn't famous already is the same reason why he would hate me for writing his name here. He turned 17 when everyone else was already 18 or 19 or a mature student. He was on stage with the lecturer before the end of the course. But was the music industry for him? No. One of the finest players I've ever seen in person. Top lad, too. It was a pleasure to be around him.
Incredible version of Stella. Wasn't expecting that. Always great to hear a fresh WTF level take on the tune when so many vanilla versions are out there. Not heard of him before. Mores the shame.
Vinnie and Aydin are telepathic and building musical monuments of incredible design. This rivals and exceeds some of my favorite Vinnie moments including some off the chain bootlegs.
Rick, I am so thankful to you for introducing me to this incredible music to me. Love you, Bro. No lie. THANK YOU SO MUCH for sharing all you have. It's good karma
Thank you Rick for sharing these precious things. They broaden my perspectives on music, although Aydin's stuff goes waaay too far away for my brain ;I
I'm impressed by how Aydin and Allan Holdsworth think about chords almost the same way, they both talk about chords as families, you talk about it in another video and seeing this and an instructional of Holdsworth I notice it, they explain chords as the same idea
i would love to watch a 10 hour video where Aydin explains in more detail everything he touched on in this video, delving into his ideas, with examples. The only duty of the interviewer is not to stop his stream of consciousness
Hey Rick, can you get Jacob Collier on your show? If not, his mother would be a good second choice. Or maybe the both of them together. The kid is a phenomenon.
“Best is still the best if it’s the best thing.” -Aydin Esen
Rick, you are the Carl Sagan of music.
Yessss!
Deniz Bilman Definitely.
Deniz Bilman If Rick is Carl Sagan, Aydin is Albert Einstein.
abi neden bilmiyorum ama çok mutlu oldum
He's much better than that.
man. we need more aydins in the world.
... and now my brain needs to cool down.
Aydin is once again a pure source of inspiration, wisdom, and beauty, as he has always been. From 1987 to 2017, this hasn't changed.
The thoughts of a truly great mind. His involvement in the world of music is a gift to us all.
The way Aydin relates to music has altered my entire perception of music as a whole. I feel the genius to the core. Magic
There is a thing that many people don't notice is how Rick is looking to Aydın while Aydın is talking or playing. Rick usually smiling with full of respect and love. This is not just Aydın is the greatest musician and not just they are old friends. One of the reason is Rick really loves the music he really enjoys of it.

Thank you for this channel and thank you for your existence.
ha that solo improv is incredible. i was lucky to be there...i remember somebody called it "stella takes giants steps on green dolphin street".
that audio should be properly restored...
@@brutsalvadi Nah. Improv just comes and goes my friend.
What a great and modest,kind hearted true artist. Aydin Esen....It was one of my highlights in my life to have the chance to listen to what he has to say about his concepts.Your channel and teachings also have been a tremendous inspiration to music for me too..Thank you Rick Beato....
I feel exactly the same way!
Rick, Thank for introducing Aydin Esen. He is an amazing talent. Great mind and completely cool. He has proved that there are no limits to traditional harmony. Very inspiring..

Watched it 3 times to consume all the information, still need to watch it 5 more times. Mind blown.
Good grief, Aydin is so charismatic! This episode was fifty shades of awesome.

Tomas Franck Thanks so much Tomas!
This video should have millions of views.
What a fascinating, inspiring man! Thanks Rick. You keep knocking it out of the park!
This is full of life lessons; pure greatness. So honored and inspired to attend Maestro Esen’s concerts. Mr. Beato cannot thank you enough; you trigger the music in so many of us...
oOOoOoooO
I so appreciate what you do with this this channel Rick!
This was absolutely wonderful on every musical level. Thank you for sharing this!

how has your experience of nuryl been Keola? I'm trying it now.
With your series and tutorials (and guests) you are making history in Jazz :)
Proud to call Aydın my Friend.
You deserve way more views..more people need to see this
Süper bir insan
This guy is probably the best musician ever!
Thank you again and again for all the brilliance and beauty you keep putting out into the world. I am learning soo much from these feasts of sound and coherence. I am salivating listening to Ayden's work from 1987.

Aydin thank you. Finally someone that talks about Trilok Gurtu. I listen since I was a kid.
this is incredible. what a musician!
Yeeaaahh. I was waiting that. Greetings from Greece. Thank you !
deep, honest and great core messages about all of us know matter how advanced we become, we're always students first. thanks so much
45 seconds in, this is already the best thing out there.
He is turkish, he is genius... we are proud of him...
Perfect timing, Rick. I just finished with your Bossa Nova video, made a cup of coffee and needed something to accompany the coffee when the notification of your new SOUNDING OFF video arrived.
+Pétra Gaffney Awesome! Good morning Petra!
Thanks Rick for making know such great pianist !
This was so inspiring. My goodness, what an amazing player you brought to my attention.
Fantastic interview! Thank you, Rick and Aydin!
I. Love. Ayden.
Aydin is fantastic. Thanks, Rick for the interview. Your videos are excellent.
Great wise words in the first 5 minutes - Learn by teaching - thank you Sensei

This totally blows me away-- Thanks Rick!!
Thanks for this Rick... He named a lot of people I need to go check out now
I can't remember being so musically impressed as I am with Aydin Esen. Spiritual awareness.
Man, I just watched this. What a monster player!!! Thank you soooooo much for sharing, Rick. You rule.
Thanks Rick! I'm so grateful you have that solo footage. It's actually hard to listen to - to contain that onslaught of creativity and virtuosity.
Brilliant!! Best blog so far, so much to take from this and look into. I am so inspired and Aydin is one of my real favorite people in all of music...Thank you so much Rick !!!
This is pure gold. These videos are Gold Mine! Learn it, while you can.
wow. what love. Aydin is awesome. thank you Rick!
Wow, simply wow. Thanks Rick
At 50:20 -- wow! So beautiful. This whole video is amazing. Thank you Rick!!!
Out of all your great amazing interviews, this is my favorite! Truly mind-blowing! Well done!
That's the most amazing arrangement of Central Park West I've ever heard 25:53 is incredible!
It's hard to believe in what we just saw... :) You are both wonderful.
Great interview! There was article by Keyboard Magazine years ago that had on the front cover both hands on the keyboard with handcuffs. The article was about improvising. In other words, uncuff the cuffs. I love what Aydin said about "passing sounds."
Thanks so much...treasures
I get a feeling of Keith Jarrett (not just in look!) from Aydin. Some amazing playing on that video clip. Many thanks Rick!
:D :D :D grear, intense and hilarious. Thank you Rick for doing this. Thank you Aydin for being who you are.
Oh my god! This guy is my hero. I want to hang out with him and absorb his knowledge.
I absolutely loved this! ...especially at 14:27 where the strange neighbor adds something to your Am. My day is off to a productive start, Thank you Rick and Aydin!
I just wanted to add how much I appreciate the incredible knowledge you both share, you can not imagine how much I value this.
This was one of the best interviews I have ever seen period.
Fantastic perspective on simply enjoying creativity, innovation and the work that must be put into always evolving as a listener first then a musician. Thanks to you both - learning more and more
It's funny even when Aydin is explaining something it itself is a verbal jazz improv
Great interview Rick.
Easily one of the best videos on YT.
Great video
Thanks so much
That was great! I will be watching this a few more times. So much great insight! Thank you for this!!
never clicked a video of yours so fast
Awesome video, mind streching and inspiring, thank you !

No. One of the finest players I've ever seen in person. Top lad, too. It was a pleasure to be around him.
I am not a native speaker, i only got 75% of what Aydin said. But his honesty make me chuckle. Great interview.
Rick, he really loves his descendent improv. Even play the "standards" he seems not be veering in the same field of the tunes.
King of the Piano 🎹 Aydın Esen!!!
Incredible version of Stella. Wasn't expecting that. Always great to hear a fresh WTF level take on the tune when so many vanilla versions are out there. Not heard of him before. Mores the shame.
the greatest version of stella i have ever heard
Wow! But I really mean....WOWWWW! (around 35 min. it was mind blowing, magnificient enlightment) Thank you.
yes yes yes!!
My best musician Aydın Esen ;)
OMFG - that improv thing he skyped in at the end of the interview.... wonderful..
Vinnie and Aydin are telepathic and building musical monuments of incredible design. This rivals and exceeds some of my favorite Vinnie moments including some off the chain bootlegs.
Rick, I am so thankful to you for introducing me to this incredible music to me. Love you, Bro. No lie. THANK YOU SO MUCH for sharing all you have. It's good karma
as bayrakları as 🇹🇷
eheheheheh
Loved this Rick!
i need to go to bathroom but i'm five minutes into this video, so i'm gonna hold it.
.I can hear a lot of Oscar Peterson in Aydin's playing. Thanks for all this music Rick.
What a lovely guy
Masterclass needed!!
Thank you Rick for sharing these precious things. They broaden my perspectives on music, although Aydin's stuff goes waaay too far away for my brain ;I
Rick - might you kindly consider doing a full interview of Aydin Esen please?
I'm impressed by how Aydin and Allan Holdsworth think about chords almost the same way, they both talk about chords as families, you talk about it in another video and seeing this and an instructional of Holdsworth I notice it, they explain chords as the same idea
Wow, this is AWESOME!!
i would love to watch a 10 hour video where Aydin explains in more detail everything he touched on in this video, delving into his ideas, with examples. The only duty of the interviewer is not to stop his stream of consciousness
Hehe,Aydin reminds me of a mad scientist.
invite him again please
Hey Rick, can you get Jacob Collier on your show? If not, his mother would be a good second choice. Or maybe the both of them together. The kid is a phenomenon.
Super Great
