Great arrangement! One of my favorite songs, should learn it as well! (Asking as an ex- pedalsteelplayer) are you familiar with that version by Pedalsteeler Buddy Emmons? Cheers! karel
Wow what a fun live jam, all excellent players, and quite a speedy tempo on such a tricky chord progression as All the Things You Are. Plus is that the wonderful French chanteuse Cyrille Aimée in front there recording the guys? How cool is all that!
Je connaissais ce thème sous le nom "Tired sun" ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-5Ngp1adbauQ.html mais ce n'est peut-être pas le même titre en fait ?
I heard the main theme in denouement,agree that too many notes pollute the music,alas that’s the spirit of competition and the goal for a jam, to contribute your variation.
It is so easy to allow your guitar playing to be the subject of your ego and vanity, Just because you can play fast and show the world your technical skills, it does not mean that you should jump on the bandwagon and do this at every opportunity. Respect for the composition, and the composer should always be paramount in the manner in which you address a melody and in particular a melody as beautiful and meaningful as the tune " All The Things You Are ". I magine if every tune was played at breakneck speed, and the only reason for that tempo was to show the world how fast you can play, it reduces music making to a race against time instead of making Art with music. If the Django Reinhardt composition " Nuages" were to be played at 250 beats per minute, the unspoken but widely understood message of Django's composition would be lost in the flurry of meaningless notes, played with an insensitive brutality, in contrast to the way that it should be played. For this reason, I avoid the impromtu jam sessions at Samois, Fontainebleu , and Samoreau, there are too many big egos for my liking, and not enough delicacy, poise, lyricism, or respect, fuelled no doubt by egocentricity. Sad that Djangos music has been purloined by guitar pirates who have little sense of good taste in music or anything else.
I get it dude, but there are hundreds of recordings of this song that will suit your taste. this is just a late night jam..... I think you are being a bit snobby here.
Suddenly the world is full of guitar players each of them vying for an original voice in music, all of them with nothing new to say, except the hackneyed tripe that is the currency of today's Django Reinhardt fans, and some of them with opinions based on superficial knowledge of the genre and closed loop improvisation, going round and round in ever faster decreasing circles.
Next time round come over and we’ll have a bottle to our liking, Tony, and a go at it ‘old school’. My lot is twenty yards down across the lane. Cheers mate!
That’s what I hate about copy solos , they all play the same thing … all solos from Django recordings are 100% impressions, if they recorded same song 10 times , each time Django played different solo / phrases , 10 times same song , 10 times different impressions.. that’s true story from Stephane Grappelli , example Nuages is all improvise ,
That copy (though notice Hugo and Adrien created a crazy harmony at the end of the Django quote) is just a tribute -- like the way people do the "Dark Eyes" Django solo. Then they go off on their own solos. IMO it's just giving respect to the master.
You obviously have zero knowledge about gypsy jazz jamming, and quoting the master. Those guys can play the most brilliant improvised solos, every time if they wanted.
Là par contre sur un standard plus évolué d'un point de vue harmonique c'est beaucoup plus intéressant chez Convert ! Je pense que la position de l'enregistrement n'est pas bonne pour entendre proprement son jeu, ça joue beaucoup sur la perception de l'écoute qu'on a de ses soli sur cet angle de prise de son. (ce n'est pas une critique envers vous bien sûr, vous vous mettez ou vous pouvez j'imagine !) Merci.
Convert un "poil largué" je trouve, pourtant quel super improvisateur il est sur d'anciens enregistrements. On entend sa patte moderne mais très étouffée.. après la position d'enregistrement n'aide pas. Merci en tout cas !
❤🎶❤ Je suis émue de pouvoir à nouveau écouter La valse d’Augustine jouée par Adrien et Benoît ! Merveilleux 👍 👏👏👏 Un immense MERCI Justin pour toutes les vidéos 🙏🙏🙏
❤🎶❤ Tu as vraiment un grand talent Justin 👍 👏👏👏 J’ai eu, comme les années précédentes, un énorme plaisir à t’écouter à Samoreau ! Merci d’être venu et merci aussi pour tes vidéos 🙏🙏🙏
