"Body And Soul" | Patrick Bartley & William Schwartzman
"Body And Soul" by Johnny Green, performed by Patrick Bartley and William Schwartzman. Captured in a rehearsal studio in Tokyo, Japan in November 2022.
Another great take from this session, honestly my favorite from this. Will really surprised me on this one, and the ideas just never stopped! Thanks for watching, as always.
======================================
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 KZread 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 KZread anymore.
Thank you so much for watching, and stay tuned for more from Will!

i felt that pause at 3:45 in my SOUL man, holy moly
This is a pretty rock solid duo ngl. The time stays so steady without drums and the harmony never feels hollow despite there being no bass so the tune just floats beautifully, nice job guys.
Thx to Bartley I fell in love with music again! Finally a PLAYER, not a lick machine like many on the net now.
Woah.... I was immediately captured by the sensitive piano intro... and further astounded by the level of attention paid to the placement of every single note, timbre, and harmonic choice. Such a simple setting provides a canvas to perfectly capture the deep emotional-artistry that is often forgone these days. I am both touched and inspired!!
Utterly Brilliant treatment of this All-Time Classic, Patrick.👏👏🎷
Wow Will’s got so much soul(no pun intended 😂). Phenomenal as always you guys ❤
What a duo performance...exceptional!
One of the most beautiful renditions of Body & Soul I've ever heard.
Voicings are so full. Kid has great taste!!!!
It was a pleasure meeting you at Jazz SPOT Intro little over a week ago on your birthday, that night was some of the best live jazz I had ever experienced. Thank you for this lovely performance here with William, I look forward to more of your work!
