It's hard to believe this brilliant, fearless, fun-loving, thoroughly fresh-sounding jazz pianist has been gone 25 years, and that this incredible recital was recorded only a couple of years before his death -- in his prime. To have this video as a monument to his musicianship is a great gift to the world.
Vitous has such an electric tone on that upright, and those tuning harmonics at the beginning! Fantastic performance start to finish. Thank you for posting!
No disrespect to the amazing AJ, but it's real nice to hear the "real" jazz bass sound. MV is absolutely silky underneath MP's lyrical playing. SG is, well, SG. What more can one say?
Talento puro, una manifestación extraordinaria del arte musical. Mis respetos y admiración para los 3 músicos y muy especialmente a Michel Petrucciani.

I was there! Summer of 97 ! Masterpiece
Reading Michel's bio online - he was fearless and funtastic as a person - as a pianist...he was indeed monumental!!
This is the concert I've been waiting to hear for so long. I really appreciate you uploading it. Thank you very much.
What harmony between these 3 giants of jazz, if I had to keep only one concert by Michel Petruccianni... it would be this one.

Totally agree.
