"Wave" (comp. Antonio Carlos Jobim)
Bijan Taghavi Trio LIVE 5/17/24 @ Ravenscroft (Scottsdale, AZ), featuring:
Bijan Taghavi, piano
Luther Hughes, bass
Dom Moio, drums
This is a timeless classic and one of the most popular Bossa Nova standards that Antonio Carlos Jobim wrote. We weren't initially planning on playing this tune this tour, but Luther heard my solo piano recording of "Wave" (which you can hear here: ruclips.net/video/PaKgoBB08FU/видео.html) and said 'this is a nice performance, BUT I don't think those are the original chord changes.' So Luther sent me the original chord changes to this tune, and we played it a few nights later during this special performance i...

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Harmony is so beautiful, can’t wait morning comes to try this by myself😱😍🥹
Yeah Bijan! Wonderful feel from the group! Love the whole note bars and Luthers dance. Classic Luther!
Thanks Dan! You had the best seat in the house right in the front. Great playing with these guys, what a memorable evening and classic Luther indeed! 😂
Beautiful Bijan! Band sounds great and love the whole note section and Luthers dance! Priceless and so effective!
Thanks @pianoinstructionvideos! Those spontaneous whole note holds I thought really out those bridge chord changes nicely, all credit to Luther! His handwave dance was indeed hilarious… he actually called me yesterday to say how embarrassed he was about the hand dance, we had a great laugh about it. 😂
Brouillon et confus 😢
Thank you! Glad you liked it! 🙏
Thanks 🙏🏻
Nice, I also always like going back to the original. A similar situation happened to me playing Stablemates. Golson's first bar just makes more sense to me harmonically and vibe-wise, than Miles' version. :)
Yep always important to know the original! Funny, Stablemates is actually one of those cases where I personally prefer the “non-original” sidestep changes at the beginning. Stella is another example of that where I just like the Emi7b5 better at the beginning. But it’s still good to know it - for the integrity of the tune, for playing with others incase they’re using the original changes and who knows maybe we might like the original changes from time to time! 😉
Some Kenny Barron style.
Je n'aime pas ce standard mais, vous écoutant, je suis en train de changer d'avis.
Wow, thank you so much! Glad we could change your mind about this tune 😊
To listen to my SOLO PIANO version of “Wave”: ruclips.net/video/PaKgoBB08FU/видео.html This is a timeless classic and one of the most popular Bossa Nova standards that Antonio Carlos Jobim wrote. We weren't initially planning on playing this tune this tour, but Luther heard my solo piano recording of "Wave" and said 'this is a nice performance, BUT I don't think those are the original chord changes.' So Luther sent me the original chord changes to this tune, and we played it a few nights later during this special performance in Scottsdale, AZ at the Ravenscroft along with the great Dom Moio on drums.

Quelle classe, ce toucher qui effleure! Merci, et bravo!
Bijan I want to say I think your standard Changes deserves to become as much a staple in the repertoire as something like Stella by Starlight or Beautiful Love. Love the different takes on it with Triogram and with Mr. Hughes.

🚨OUT NOW: FULL 1st Set with MAESTRO LUTHER HUGHES 🎻 from our duo concert at Jazz at the Merc (Temecula, CA) 5.16.24! Legendary bassist, Luther Hughes, gives Bijan his flowers: “I’m going to go on the record and say Bijan is one of my heroes. He is an amazing jazz educator, I call him up all the time and say: ‘what do you like to do in this spot?’ He is an amazing musician, composer and a really, really nice person.” But truth be told, Luther is my hero. His resume speaks for itself (Gene Harris Quartet, Horace Silver, Carmen McRae, etc), but you would never know from talking to him because he is so humble in his approach. He was a pivotal figure for me in my jazz development growing up in Southern California and continues to be a mentor, collaborator and friend. We speak on the phone almost every week ranging from conversations about our students to him advising me on what to do with my car! Playing with him on this special tour will forever be one of the highlights of my life - his sound and sense of groove is unmatched, and his interplay makes him a joy to play with. Footage from our recent tour (duo & trio shows) will be released soon, starting with the FULL 1st set from our duo show which is OUT NOW!
Ah yes I think of Bill ❤ very melodic voicing, well done…
Thanks so much! Yea Bill‘s harmonic conception was masterful. I got to play and record with the last drummer who played in Bill’s Trio, the great Joe LaBarbera. And Joe showed me several tapes of Bill’s practice sessions that nobody has ever heard before and it is quite remarkable - a lot of people think of Bill as a harmonic genius who was a great ballad player, but in his practice tapes you can hear him sounding like a Bud Powell clone. Of course he never performed like that, but that fact that he had that in him just goes to show how well rounded of a cat Bill really was.
Great show guys
Thank you! 🙏
Lovely
**6/19/24 UPDATE: For those who may have already seen this set uploaded last week and wondering why this is being re-uploaded, this version includes a new 3rd camera angle from the back center of the room, courtesy of Randy Kojaku. Huge thanks to Randy! Luther and I have a rich history together as mentor-mentee, collaborators and friends; we last played together at Jazz at the Merc in Temecula, CA “the day before the world shut down” in March 2020. It was only fitting that our first time performing together in over 4 years would be back at the Merc exploring the ART OF THE DUO. Sit back, relax and join us on this journey as we explore a couple original tunes, a couple Horace Silver tunes that Luther played with the composer himself, a couple Jobim tunes and Luther's "favorite Easter tune" (East of the Sun).
Tasty lines indeed! Thanks
