"Beatrice" (Sam Rivers) | Patrick Bartley & William Schwartzman

Описание к видео "Beatrice" (Sam Rivers) | Patrick Bartley & William Schwartzman

"Beatrice" by Sam Rivers, performed by Patrick Bartley and William Schwartzman. Captured in a rehearsal studio in Tokyo, Japan in November 2022.

While I think I may not be old enough, or have reached a point of experience in my own life and career yet to say I'm in a position to truly "pass the torch" yet, I still want to take this time to introduce you to a promising young pianist that astonished me when I first met him - his name is William Schwartzman (@williamschwartzman), who just recently turned 18. Last month, Will told me he would be in Tokyo visiting with his family, so I immediately took the opportunity to bring him to a studio to jam and make some YouTube videos. What happened, to me, was the beginning of what I know is the blossoming genius of this young pianist. In today's seemingly endless sea of technically gifted carbon copies, or the reluctance to be anything but "correct", Will stands out as someone who will have one of the next truly original voices in the future of jazz. When I met him at the Vail Jazz workshop, I knew it right away. Will SINGS on the piano with an eager fervor to take on the world with this artistry. It's extremely inspiring.

I'd like to also mention that each song we recorded for this channel was done in one take, because that's all we had time for. This was truly an immensely honest exploration of music in its purest sense, and I hope you can enjoy that transparency with every flub and mistake we left in to keep it as raw as possible. There's not enough of that on YouTube anymore.

Thank you so much for watching, and stay tuned for more from Will!
