  • Last Wednesday, April 27 (2022), the saxophonist and composer Chris Potter gave a masterclass at the Royal Conservatory of Antwerp.
    All of us who were there learned a great deal about different aspects of jazz, and from many of the master's points of view.
    Today I leave you with a home video taken on a smartphone by a friend named Prithivi Nakarmi 🙏 thanks to you dude!!!
    Enjoy this moment that for me was a dream come true.
    Once again thank you Chris Potter and the Royal Conservatory of Antwerp for the Great Time!
    Sax: Chris Potter
    Bass: Toon Rumens

    Oh my lord. How does he just keep getting better? This is some of his best playing I've heard. His sound is unbelievable on this.

      Thinking the same too. Very very small help of the large hall acoustic reverb.

      @fratavc5305 it's such a good feeling to play in perfect acoustics and this is. Chris Potter sounds phenomenal. He could probably take 80 choruses and keep you engaged with fresh material each one.

      I understand what you mean. the energy that Chris Potter transmits is incredible.

    I have seen Chris Potter live 3 times, 2 in concert and 1 master class, the latter was by far the most impressive and enjoyable experience. Christ Potter should take note of this, people just him to just shred jazz standards all night.

    Besides a few classical violinists. I don't know if anybody today is a true MASTER of their instrument the way Chris is.

      Joshua Redman , Eric Alexander & James Carter are all true masters of their saxophones as well. These gentlemen, along with Chris Potter, are elite jazz saxophonists.🎷

    • @jro1472
      @jro1472 3 місяці тому

      Chris is lightyears ahead in regards to harmonic and rhythmic mastery/variety, technical prowess as well as the art of negotiating with the rhythm section as a soloist.
      I mean no disrespect to the artists you mentioned, but any listener in search of the above mentioned qualities will not find them there.

      Sorry, but what do you mean?

    • @maxkuitems
      @maxkuitems Рік тому +1

      Probably because of Toon sounds like Tone. E.g. having a good tone or something.

      If you don't hear melodies in his playing, then YOU need a new pair of ears.....

      This is extremely harmonically melodious

    • @jro1472
      @jro1472 3 місяці тому +1

      What qualifies as melody to you? Nursery rhymes? Rachmaninoff wrote beautiful, haunting melodies that probably don't remotely fit your perception of melody.
