- Bireli Lagrene and band play a fantastic set at the North Sea Jazz Festival, 2005. Absolutely wonderful playing and chemistry.
Line up:
Bireli Lagrene (lead guitar)
Frank Wolf (saxofoon)
Hono Winterstein (rhythm guitar)
Diego Imbert (bass)
Here they play the standard 'Donna Lee', composed by Miles Davis. The original recording featured Charlie Parker.
Hono playing the rhythm solo... he is amazing and one of if not the best rhythm guitarist in the world. This is just a taste of his extrodinary talent
I watch this video at least twice a day as it gives me massive musical inspiration!
Bireli, a big. L’ho visto e sentito negli anni ‘80 in concerto con il grande Jaco al basso in un cinema-teatro di paese... ancora sto cercando la strada per casa.
I loved Hono's rhythm solo!
those flicks that the rhythm guitarist does are incredible
0:39 "DID YOU GUYS SEE WHAT I JUST DID????"
They didn't. It's as if he went to take a shit in toilet and went back to complete the melody. Without even them noticing he went. Bireli do really fill the gaps.
The guys 👦 👬 👦 : what?
Just the top of the game.
Bireli ist Bireli,eine Klasse für sich,und Hono,absolut Top!
oh le thème de fou !! cs musiciens sont super je les ai vu sur scène plusieurs fois ( avant cette merde de Covid gérée n'importe comment) et à chaque fois le pied ...merci à eux revenez vite sur scène pour nous faire plaisir ...God bless you
Hono au solo rythmique, que du bonheur.
Have mercy! Smokin'!
that kicks ass
I've never believed Miles Davis wrote this.
He was just too young to produce one of the most complex bop melodies. Parker wrote it.
True, it's Bird style, not Miles
Donna lee Manouche!!!! what an increeedible interpretation!! Thanks a lot for the publishing. I am learning to play this on bass guitar, Jaco´s adaptation and it drives me crazy. When I heard it here on "manouche" guitar it was incredible. A big thank you.
Checkout Joe Pass and NHOPs version. Only version of it with bass that actually is more virtuous than Jacos. As only Niels can do
Apsolutely fantastic!
Absolutely Ｂｒｉｌｌｉａｎｔ.
Holy crap... speechless
Hono Winterstein is amazing, you've got to see him sing like Elvis!
Great guitarist
s*
That ending was insane
Great clarinetist, very good rhythm section in the manouce-manner, lying out the right forundation for Bireli who is of course SMOKIN'! :))
It’s a soprano saxophone
Your solo guitar are wonderful....perfect!
Greatest!
CHARLIE PARKER CLASSIC
Sounds more like Gypsy Jazz at this speed, Parker played it much slower. Very cool soprano playing 😎
Grandissimi!
Hono is the coolest.
wow hono winterstein is great
fannnnntastic ! 5*****stars
4:20 he quotes cool blues from charlie parker :) i love that lick
the Jaco ending, cool
holy Molly!
@asrm yeah...I remember Miles saying that it was his tune in the autobiography.
spotonmusic1: yes you are right. well said brother. god bless.. te trajen savore
SAX-A-MA-FOON
eita porra.!!! é apenas o que consigo dizer no momento.!!!!!
óriási!elképesztő!
lol @ 0:39 "d'ya see that lick?"
maestros
nice!
...hard to play, but if you know to play it, you´ll never forget it again. It burns into ya brain and ya fingers know how to act (automatically). I experienced this with all "hard to play" stuff. It´s always easier to play foreign pieces (to copy...) than to create own new (difficult) things.But beautiful music mustn´t always be hard to play (or?)
Isn't it an interpretation of Back Home Again in Indiana written by Macdonald and Hanley?
lol at 4:20 when he sticks in that phrase from the head of Parker's 'Cool Blues'
Hahahahaha! I just looked at the description and I saw this: ''Frank Wolf (saxofoon)''! Is that a mix between a saxophone and a raccoon or a cartoon saxophone?
Hahahahhahaha
It's Dutch :')
I wanna be a saxofoonist when I grow up
Hono master
Excellent band!
I went to high school with the bass player Diego Imbert... top guy! Totally self-taught. Respect!
:) ok that sounds plausible
what do you guys think about JoschoStephan by the way
@Csibon13 miles was young and so much into parker stuff, the fact that it's parkerish doesn't mean it was written by parker, in fact it wasn't.
Miles states in auto biography that he wrote it, Bird got the credit, but they worked it out so that Miles received royalties for its publishing rights.Most who were there say Bird was always hurting for cash, If he was the composer, why would he relinquish rights to a side-man, and potentiallly take money out his own pocket ?
Hono god
yeaah ;)
Actually by Miles Davis.
Pazzesco😯
dos tres, dos tres...
Donna lee Gypsy jazz style
haha 3:19 the best!
Tune sounds more Parker. It even features many Parker's signature licks. So, I doubt Davis wrote it.
Hono Monster-stein..
@GassyMaskz how can you possibly think that miles wrote it...i guess it's beating a dead horse by now after six months, but hopefully you've seen the light since then. Parker's name is all over donna lee, and not just in copyright; play it yourself, whatever instrument you must play, being a musician. Listen to some parker then...his licks are all over donna lee, they are basically an improvisation on back home in indiana's changes...how can people ever think miles wrote it, geez.
Hono won \o/ !
im trying so hard to learn this but its so damn fast....
@1wayne12345 the magic is in the rhythmic strumming, not so much the tones. I guess you either appreciate it or you don't.
Lord almighty, a sweep picking be-bop artist that looks like Peter Lorre....
Awesome song. I'm pretty sure it was Dizzy Gillespie that played on the original with Parker?
Actually, it's a Davis tune that has wrongly been credited to Parker over the years. Fakebooks are notorious for stuff like that, it happens all the time. Davis wrote it later in the 40s after he replaced Gillespie in Parker's quintet.
0:35 WTF!?!?!?
Don't they BOTH lay claim to having written this tune?
@plexiseagull *Saxophonist
miles wrote the song while he was in bird's band, so thats normal if its in bird's language, u should check out before talking bulshit...
just do some search and u will find out that its miles tune, he wrote it but their label put bird as writer of donna lee!
a birelli le gusta yngwie y van halen
Jajaja, gustos de virtuoso.
sounds like a diminished with an extra note...maybe a 9 or something?
Bullshit.
In fact, the rythm player impresses me the most
the acoustic guitar player's grasp on time is just through the roof
Yeah Hono Winterstein, pure class.
@Drblooter99
Miles no more wrote this head than the perennially immature Spielberg could have written and directed Dogville. Miles could not have written Donna Lee. No amount of musicology will persuade me otherwise. I allow Parker and Miles might have sat down together and this emerged. That's different.
That rhythm guitarist looks like the mental hospital guard in Terminator 2, who the liquid metal cyborg copies and kills. I hope this impression is useful to you jazz fans!!
Hono's rhythm playing is unbelievable.
Bireli Lagrene solo is something else. So clean...
I think it's a Miles tune. In the old days, the "big names" put their names on scores from their band members, not to steal (well, not always lol) but to help promote that songs and their writers.
It's actually a Charlie Parker tune. It's played over the chords to the old standard 'Back Home Again (In Indiana.)'
but i bet you cant pick out or play those chords or reinact the strumming patterns lol
Hono Winterstein is an outstanding rhythm guitarist! Bireli wouldn't sounded so brightly and interesting without Hono's rhythm guitar! To work by Hono's rhythm guitar school is a really pleasure! Hono Winterstein and Nous'che Rosenberg are the best rhythm guitar players in Jazz Manouche! Forgot: and Denis Chang too)))
Bireli is a god
Miles played the song in unison with Charlie Parker on the original. He can play the head. He claims he wrote it in G but Parker has gotten all the credit for it
Crystal-clear solo by Lagrene. It's crazy...
Great articulation by Wolf also....
How do you know when a musician is great? The BALD SPOT! 🤣
Picking up the torch where Joe Pass left it on this number. Bravo.
I have checked it out and there are varying opinions about who wrote it. You're know it attitude and the use of the term bullshit is rude and uncalled for since you can't PROVE your statement, only theorize. Nobody knows for sure who really wrote it but quite honestly who cares?
In my honest, humble opinion this is a bad version. Bebop, especially of the more aggressive and hip school like Donna Lee, just doesn't translate well to the gypsy style. Lagrene shot it down and the other solo's were not good. Sorry.
Wouhouhou !!! that's music ! Bireli's solo looks like someone laughing all along. Furthemore, the interaction with the saxophonist is beautiful.
Not sure McLaughlin or Al di Meola could play the theme and improvise on the chords at that speed.
Amazing playing! I covered it on my guitar recently 😂
is this man an octopus!???!
yeah, a little 'Take the A Train' quote. I think that even surprised him!
Nice to see Hono get a solo!
Are you sure this was recording in 1995? Seems like a more recent lineup (starting with his Move album released in 2005)
Take the A train at 3:17
Anyway, it's written "Parker" in the real book, and I've always seen parker, not davis. It doesn't really matter in fact. Great Vidz thx
This is a Parker tune, but miles can play in time just as clean as parker or anyone else
The rhythm guitar is made to produce a soft noise - that is why the strings have a especially low tension. Now this is the first big rhythm guitar solo I heard, and I was able to enjoy it. Just hum the melody beside.
I feel dizzy.
