One of the great bassists of the past 40 years, John Patitucci came to fame with Chick Corea’s Elektric Band and Akoustic Band in the mid-1980s.
Since then he has led his own groups, been a regular poll winner, and consistently displayed brilliance on both acoustic and electric basses.
On April 6, 2020 he performed this intriguing solo bass recital which displays both his creativity and virtuosity, adding his wife Sachi on cello for one duet.

Review:
This is the twenty fourth in a series of special Jazz on the Tube reviews of live stream performances.
Support live music – even when it’s streamed!
While the recorder is often thought of as a kid’s toy or, in some cases, as a device to play classical or folk melodies, Tali Rubinstein has shown that her instrument has a great deal of potential.
She studied classical music, competed at competitions, and was the first recorder player to ever study at Berklee.
She has since made several recordings, performed internationally, and appeared at quite a few major festivals.
On this solo performance from April 14, 2020, Tali Robinson plays a variety of originals (sometimes humming through her recorder to get a droning effect) and is joined by a percussionist for the second half.
Throughout the show, Tali Robinson displays impressive technique on her recorder with the fluency of a flutist or piccolo player.

Review:
This is the hundredth and thirty-ninth in a series of special Jazz on the Tube reviews of live stream performances.
Support live music – even when it’s streamed!
Vibraphonist Christos Rafalides was born in Kozani, Greece where he studied piano and classical percussion, working with top orchestras.
After hearing pianist George Cables play, Rafalides switched to jazz and the vibraphone, moving to Boston to study at Berklee and in New York at the Manhattan School of Music where he learned from Joe Locke.
Since 2002, Christos Rafalides has recorded regularly and worked with top musicians including Ravi Coltrane, Antonio Sanchez, Donny McCaslin, the Charles Mingus Epitaph Band, and some of Greece’s most creative artists.
On this LiveStream from April 6, 2020, Christos Rafalides improvises a few numbers on his solo vibraphone while Irini Rafalides (whose speaking microphone is unfortunately a bit low) draws images that complement his playing.

Review:
This is the twenty second in a series of special Jazz on the Tube reviews of live stream performances.

This Livestream features duets by a pair of excellent young saxophonists: Ethan Helm and Owen Broder.
Ethan Helm leads the avant-garde group Wet Electric and has composed and arranged for several genres of music.
Owen Broder has worked with Ryan Truesdell, leads the quintet Cowboys & Frenchmen, and is a member of the Anat Cohen Tentet.
Helm (heard on tenor, bass clarinet and baritone sax), and Brodie (alto and flute) perform melodic music that sometimes hints at Eric Dolphy, and is filled with a variety of tone colors, attractive harmonies, and subtle creativity.

Review:
This is the one hundred fifty-second in a series of special Jazz on the Tube reviews of live stream performances.
Support live music – even when it’s streamed!
A jazz singer, keyboardist and dancer, Goussy Célestin has a beautiful and friendly voice along with a vivid imagination.
Having studied with Ron Carter, Jimmy Heath, Max Roach, Donald Byrd, Barry Harris, Sheila Jordan and with several dance instructors, she works regularly in New York and the East Coast with a variety of groups; a highlight or her was performing duets with the late pianist John Hicks.
On her LiveStream from May 6, 2020, at first Goussy Celestin playfully pretends to be playing her quilt, singing a different note for each color that she dances on.
She next creates a choir via electronics on an infectious rhythmic piece, plays keyboard on one number which includes a short vocal, and then gives viewers a fine example of her jazz piano playing, wrapping up a spontaneous and solid all-round performance.
