Chris knows the history of the sax within this noble music so deeply yet makes it fresh and engaging, which is the way it's meant to be. I've had the good fortune to see Chris with 3 other masters, trumpeter and composer Dave Douglas, bassist, composer Dave Holland and guitarist, composer and wizard of invention, Pat Metheny. Thanks for posting!
A difficult thing doing this is that phrasing from A to B section is kind of the same than to start over one half step over. Hard to not loose yourself through the changes then !
That would be "Bird", "Trane, "Hank", Wayne, Sonny, "Cannonball", the list goes on and on with sax players who were his equal or better. I first heard Chris with Red Rodney on a album called "Then and Now". I knew then that he was really good. I do believe he was a kid when he made that recording and every solo he did smoked...!!
@@brandonvu5429"innovative" ? ... They both are excellent players, none of them is more or less "innovative" than the other: they both made a path for all of us i guess. Choose to embrace one or both. Why always comparing, make a ladderboard ? ...
@@rienbutter he yawn beacause his brain gets tired even listening a song in twelve keys, not even think how would it be if he tried to play anything in twelve keys... Burn out coma for poor vova brain.
2:47 my head just exploded at that line. Dunno how I'm going to make it to the end of this vid alive.
10 keys ....but one time feel that stays thru-out....thats what counts,u dig--bravo bro
One more billion hours of practice and i'll be good to go
10,000 is the average to achieve mastery
Even Potter has said a lot of it is natural talent. He just has it and then put in the work to master it.
Paul Davis: That is laughable.
I suppose. But some skills require less time than others I believe. Various is the answer but the 10k is a ball park most probably
Not the most modest of people then?..I do love his album with Kenny Wheeler - What Now!

Lol I love how you hear people laugh when he quotes dargason
The first time I heard Chris was the song 'Bones' with Peter Bernstein, both wonderful players. Great clip! ... thanks for sharing!
OMG - this guy is a monster!
One of the best ways to extend your improvisation skills and general musicianship.
I didn't know that, that means I really have to practice it now. But what song to choose... Cherokee is too fast
@@cjgreen4331 just play it slower if it’s uncomfortable

Potter's solo transcription, you can join us!forum.saxontheweb.net/showthread.php?234437-Chris-Potter-
at 10:30 he jumps from key of F# up to A natural.
4:39. My god.
Johnny Griffin would appreciate that.
I have to ask....does anyone compare to the virtuosity of Chris Potter, past or present?
Check Chad Lefkowitz-Brown. Not as good but a phenomenon on its own
Brecker? idk, Potter's kind of a goat
Brecker was far more innovative, but Potter has a tighter grasp on the craft.
