My father passed away under tragic circumstances in October 2020. He was a marine biologist, but he loved jazz, progressive rock and many interesting artists from all genres. He was very much into strong individuals with a strong sense of groove and beauty. He himself was a sensitive man full of life and inner conflict. He loved listening to Bill Evans during the last years of his life. I hope he is at peace and I hope he is somewhere out there enjoying this beautiful music. I will join him later in life.

I love Bill's posture. It's not what any classically trained pianist would call proper, and yet it shows how dedicated he was to his craft. He doesn't hunch over for the simple iconography of it; rather it's a sign that he's fully engrossed in what he's playing. Moving stuff.

All he's doing is running up the pentatonic scale while comping on every note. However, the lengths of the notes alternate between 8th note and quarter note. That's called a 2-against-3 swing (quarter note is equivalent to an on-beat 8th note; the 8th note is equivalent to an off-beat 8th note, which is shorter because of the swing). However, he starts with an 8th note-so it's a reverse 2-against-3 swing. However, the actual 8th notes are still swinging-which means while each quarter note stays the same, the lengths of the 8th notes alternate by a factor of 2. So his final rhythm (in terms of triplet 8 notes) is 2 - 3 - 1 - 3 repeating. If anyone needs an auditory explanation I can make a quick video about it.

This is out of this world. Such a genius mind and talent. Every time I listen to Bill Evans, I feel like I am being transferred to another reality so deep and pure, that cannot be found elsewhere. Astonishing!

Bill Evans playing draws out all of one's hidden pain and bliss, every second we felt almost complete although it all vanished shortly after. “My foolish heart” leaves you feeling something was lost and will never exist again.

When I listen to this beautiful arrangement by Bill, I become calm and peaceful in listening to it. I never tire of listening to this piece; soothing and heavenly.

Everything Bill Evans played automatically became the Gold Standard for us mere mortals’…

아름다운데 슬프고.. 유려하면서 동시에 우울함.. 그래서 빠져나오기 힘들어..

Bill Evans, one of the greatest jazz pianists of all time.

I find myself here again after 3 years... Finally free from my shackles and I still a have never given up on my dream. I wonder if one day I'll come back and reminisce at my struggles...

I love the way he's just in his own zone as he plays, the music taking him somewhere beautiful and we get to observe it and hear it.

we are so lucky that people recorded Mr Evans.. so many thousands of hours of his playing, in late nights in his home or in clubs when only the staff were there setting up, that we will never hear but echoed out into the universe once upon a time

Bill Evans : piano,Larry bunker : drum , Chuck Israel : bass. Thank you so much guys for this. God...no words

Bill evans reminds me of the beauty in every possible sadness, how deep that sadness may be

On the late evening after Christmas, I drank with my friend and listened to Bill Evans' music on the subway back home. When I come back home, I look into his musical history and go to sleep while listening to his music. He's a great man.

Walking to school listening to this and feeling amazing. This is just so smooth and...chill. Made my hair stand on end.....

Here in 2021 because I was in search of real music and have grown sick today's music. I needed something that soothe my soul, found it. 😊

The opening notes to this piece are totally amazing. This totally compresses the feeling of sadness, often brought up by a failed relationship, a break-up or even a discussion. This is basically a way to capture the pain that's bringed up by failing your own feelings.

Every song that Bill Evans plays is automatically imbued with another layer of emotional intensity and and otherworldly tenderness. Truly a genius

Like a man assembling clockwork, so does Bill when arranging his melodies. The meticulous way in which he presses the keys could be likened to how a painter's brushstrokes - precise, graceful, with purpose. Bill was not only a musician, he was an artist, in every sense of the word.

Why Russian? He was half-ukrainian. Or had I misunderstood you?

I feel it and you ?

Bill Evans had a light, lyrical touch that was so beautiful, it made it seem like you could hear the gates of heaven. But like so many tragic artists, he died way too young 😢 Rest In Peace Bill Evans 🙏🏾🎹

I'm in heaven - please don't wake me.

I totally agree with you.

One of the very very very few pieces of art that makes me cry.

I'm new to Bill Evans and jazz in general but I've got to say - I love this so much

Even the sound of him pushing down on the pedal is beautiful...

Bill Evans was one of most uniq jazzpianists ever. This tune sets me in a certain kind of mood!

If anyone has a subwofer you'll understand how deep that Cello really is and this song is beautiful

The eb7 prior to the D maj7 is just so perfect.Its like when Sinatra sings a tune-it is hard to do it another way..So lovely.

Hello from 6 years later 👋

listened to this song while going through some tough times. It helped me a lot in ways I can't really explain.

It's helping me in tough times right now - which don't need explaining because we are all in this struggle together

This is my favorite record. So I went and bought it. It's been over twenty years, and I'm still captivated by Bill Evans' piano, Paul Motian's drumsticks brushing against the cymbals-a temptation I never want to resist. If Bill Evans is moonlight, then Paul Motian is the starry sky, like the night colors on the sea in summer. Strangely enough, in recent years, every time I listen, I find myself drawn to the simple plucking of bassist Scott LaFaro. His bass playing has its own syntax, engaging in a dialogue with Bill Evans' piano. The trio's dynamics, speed, spatial awareness, and emotional tension all come to life through LaFaro's contribution. He quietly plays his role from the corner, and now I realize it's a philosophy of life. If Bill Evans is moonlight, Paul Motian is the stars, and Scott LaFaro is that expanse of black night. Without darkness, the stars and moon cannot shine.
