Quite sublime. And guitarists (young ones especially) should take note - Fripp is a guy who can absolutely melt a fretboard / has unreal technical ability, and yet, he mostly chooses to slow it down, or play fast only where it truly, musically fits - as he thinks very intentionally about creating mood, atmosphere, textures, making dream-like soundscapes of other worlds and possibilities - of making music that puts one's head in a particular or deeply reflective space. This is what all great musicians do: they seek to contribute to the overall piece so as to make it more interesting, more dynamic, melodic, etc. It's the opposite of the mentality of showing off one's chops or saying, "Look at me!" It's the attitude of saying, "LISTEN to the MUSIC!"
How wonderful. The creativity and sensitivity of Mr. Fripp never ceases to amaze me, and no disrespect to the very talented musicians who play with him is intended! This is just what I needed on a frantically busy work day in the middle of the afternoon. There is indeed beauty in the world! It's not all deadlines, KPIs and brain-dead, venal managers. :-)
Nice ... I always liked this kind of music that Fripp has been doing over the years, there is something very liberating about it spiritually. Helps me sort out my brain electronics ... kinda like a good set of brain calisthenics.
+Eleuterio Ramalho It is very difficult for me to watch this anymore. I worked 2 blocks from the Towers. On a better note, Fripp adores NY so I have seen him at least 50 times since 1976. He lived there for a while as well.
+Eleuterio Ramalho Can't move on but I try. I have big pictures of WTC in each of my son's rooms. "Never Forget." I saw Fripp do an unannounced solo Frippertronics there a couple of years earlier. In 2010, he did the same in the still unfinished Winter Garden. I missed that one. Fripp is still very much a New Yorker. 4 nights in 2014; more than anyplace else in the world. Oh, I've had a meal or talked at a cocktail party with him 3 times!!!
+hfhifi At the time I was in Hollidays, I see astonished what happens in TV, seems unreal at the time. america and Europe, and Russia must see the dramas ocurring all over the world, and togheter stop all the pain,as possible. even by use of strength. best regards, I'm european, living in Portugal.
Forget the guitar playing, Fripp is one of the greatest composers/innovators in music history! He walks alongside giants like Bach & Beethoven & Mozart etc....
At first I was bothered by the tone of the Ovations with plugged soundholes, but it's kind of growing on me. It sits really well in the mix when the full ensemble is playing.
The audio link in the description is broken. It leads to the DGM website but to a 404 error page. I'd love to be able to download this and listen to the whole concert. I've really been getting into King Crimson recently and this is my first time hearing The Robert Fripp String Quintet. I love this.
Jonah Fuerstenberg yes lots of fuzz, digital reverb and delay, with volume pedal to swell in/out. nowadays he uses a sustainer pickup and a midi pickup/synth system, not sure if he was using that here
I had a neck though 7 string that would sustain ;like that. Kicking myself for selling it today, but it had Fishman FLuence pups I just didn't like . Stoopid !!
What are you doing Grandpa Fripp?Why am I all in tears?No one truly knows what you do!And I'm glad you still around,doing your thing.Pray for you!

Bingo!
Robert Fripp is a guitar genius and this is a fantastic mixture of Progressive rock and ambient music.

This is the Fripp that I love! Thank u so much!
Actually, I love all things Fripp!
We need an official DVD of this!!!
Good harmonics!
Robert is one of the finest guitarist , not many have heard of
I get it Mr. Fritz. We're the fortunate ones.
The master minimalist, this is so beautiful.
You listen to Fripp too!? ,Wow dude that's shocking me in the good way
Damn. He has some of the coolest ambient chill music. I got so many chills. Frippertronics are so spacey and cool.
Drummer Bill Bruford once called him an amalgam of Stalin, Gandhi and the Marquis de Sade.
Those two were always fighting. I don't think anyone else had quite the relationship with Fripp that Bruford had.
@@fleursbruyantes4177Funny how these two dudes always at eachothers throats were capable of making such brilliant works no others could.
Nice ... I always liked this kind of music that Fripp has been doing over the years, there is something very liberating about it spiritually. Helps me sort out my brain electronics ... kinda like a good set of brain calisthenics.
I saw them at a free concert in The World Trade Center. Eno did the sound. It's a bittersweet memory for me.
+hfhifi Very special Sir
+Eleuterio Ramalho It is very difficult for me to watch this anymore. I worked 2 blocks from the Towers. On a better note, Fripp adores NY so I have seen him at least 50 times since 1976. He lived there for a while as well.
+hfhifi Yes the Towers, the rest of the World can't understand the drama, only the natives of NY has the real image. Had to forgett and move on

Truly astounding music. The harmonies cleanse my being
Epic. Fripp is one of my guitar heroes.
Como siempre desde su King Crimson , Robert Fripp tan genial y espectacular , le da otros sentidos a la musica .
So good. This is my favourite genre of music right now. It calms my soul and gives me a sense of hope.
So unique and articulate. Very inspiring as a drummer/artist for 20+ years, this rings into the inner depths of my soul.
For the love of Fripp. Wonderful.
Great Robert Fripp
A total genius of the music
🎸🙄
People like to rag on the Ovation guitars, but I love their harpsichord-like sound. They're very unique.
RFSQ was a great combo. The album they put out is *excellent*. wag wag wag wag wag wag wag wag wag wag wag wag wag wag wag wag
Was that your tail? Good typing, tail!
I am blown away
Genius Fripp, Magical music. King Crimson is King
Happy birthday Robert Fripp!!
Long live the KING!!! Robert Fripp...
Splendido, soprattutto il finale! (08:50)
Evocative and beautiful
I would love a DVD or BluRay of this concert.
only Fripp can sound like Mr.Fripp.
Forget the guitar playing, Fripp is one of the greatest composers/innovators in music history! He walks alongside giants like Bach & Beethoven & Mozart etc....
4:23 I've never heard a guitar sound so serene
Fripp was capable of both the heaviest, nastiest guitar tones and the most serene and achingly pretty tones as well. He is my favorite guitarist.
I wish they played stuff like this on TV more often
I second that notion!
Fantastic performance!
Thank - you .
Enraptured... Pretty much the music I want to hear as I slip out of this mortal coil... Mmmmm
So good!
Divino!
Brilliant music.
At first I was bothered by the tone of the Ovations with plugged soundholes, but it's kind of growing on me. It sits really well in the mix when the full ensemble is playing.
Soothing to the soul...this music is!
Amazing
Fantastic
Спасибо!
Génial !!!!!!
This is how I like Fripp. Without vocals. Lovely.
Thank you for sharing this! Was wondering where I could get this concert legally. Haven't seen any copies available online.
there is a link in the description
+TheFluffyRoboUnicorn ofDoom yeah, it's audio only. Thankfully, they've posted the footage I was looking for in another video.
+Anthony Garone ohh ok, well nevermind then, I'm glad you found it
I'd love to hear this with gavin harrisons drumming
Very much agree!
Beautiful, tt sounds just like the Mountain section from Hyper Light Drifter...

Fripp más aya de ser un GRAN músico es un EXELENTISIMO ilusionista de la guitarra
Favorite RFSQ track: Hope.

Awsome deep feeling
Hermoso
フリップ先生の音 本当に神
Thank - you . ( ' 78/ ' 79 Frippertronics) also .

FANTASTIC¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡
Фантастика.
fucking wow!
Genius
spectacular
Thank-you .Sound Scape ?
Mystikal enchantment beauty depth
Could anybody please help me with he got the tone at 2:20. I love how it sounds like the mids are trying to break trough the gain
really heavy fuzz, a shit ton of reverb and i'm guessing more than one delay. and volume is really important as well
@@raulperez2308 thank you so much!!!
この映像はDVD化されていますか?
Does he just use an ass ton of effects or is he just that good at sustaining his notes via feedback.
Jonah Fuerstenberg yes lots of fuzz, digital reverb and delay, with volume pedal to swell in/out. nowadays he uses a sustainer pickup and a midi pickup/synth system, not sure if he was using that here
I had a neck though 7 string that would sustain ;like that. Kicking myself for selling it today, but it had Fishman FLuence pups I just didn't like . Stoopid !!
Une émotion
Qui me révèle comment s’installent les sens
Il me reste à me définir
Et à décrire pour observer encore plus
Les possibles me semblent éternels
Elles me réveillent pour que j’attrape
Ce qui m’est essentiel
Me précipitant au-devant de mes mains
Ce qui est intouchable
M’isole dans un centre qui irradie
Mes sensations sont alimentées
En réponse à l’existence
Je suis enfermé dans la transparence
Qui se répète
Pour basculer dans la durée
Qui persiste et décline le passé
Je me calme
Une autre émotion passe
Pour évoluer et s’inscrire dans mon être

Chapman Stick rules!
Water Music?
so this is what Tim did after the Office
何て気持ちいい、あと10分やってほしい、
Is my headphones too good? Wtf...
That last bit sounds like the DOOM theme
8:47
Anyone have any ideas on how to make a guitar sound like 4:26 ?
