Brad Mehldau

Incredible musicians. Brad Mehldau and company played beautifully. They seemed inspired. The food was surprisingly good for a jazz club that requires you to have - or at least pay for - dinner before the show. I shall return.

I have been a fan of Brad Mehldau for years and thoroughly enjoyed my first concert with him at The Ina and Jack Kay Theatre. The event was magical from the stylishly simple blue screen backlighting to Mr. Mehldau’s sense of humor, and the way he and members of his trio coughed into their elbows without missing a beat! All numbers in the program were beautifully played, but Backyard, Resignation, and his rendition of Nick Drake’s River Man were outstanding!

Brilliant. Brad is a Genius. Sick, as they unfortunately, were, they delivered. The performance was delayed(piano tune-up), but nevertheless they even played an encore. The set: ( perhaps not exactly in order) Got me wrong Tweaky Cheryl Gentle John Unrequited Moe Honk Holland When i fall in love Cry me a river Wish them a speedy recovery.

Amazing show! Created great vibes for serious St. Louis jazz fans like me and my wife!

This was a superb evening with sublime playing by Brad Mehldau. He performed tracks mainly from recent albums “Suite April 2020” and “Your Mother Should Know” and his playing was both absorbing and beautiful. The very appreciative audience was rewarded with 2 encores. Highly recommended.

I expected to listen to Brad Mehldau playing more. Terrific the merge with the orchestra, and the improvisation dialogue, but the number of minutes he played has been too low.

Magnífico concierto. El trío, tan compenetrado como siempre. El repertorio, toda una sorpresa, mezclando composiciones propias, standards y versiones que nos deleitaron durante las dos horas de concierto. Estábamos tan entregados que tuvieron a bien agradecernos nuestro entusiasmo con 3 bises nada menos. Se nos hará una eternidad la espera hasta que vuelvan a actuar para nosotros.

Increíble, como siempre. La conexión entre los tres músicos es insuperable y siempre sorprende el repertorio. Esperando ya su próxima visita a Madrid.

Elegant music and artistry in a really modern and wonderful venue. Brad Mehldau's skill at the piano was on full display and his drummer and stand-up bassist we equally awesome. The solos were engaging and really got the entire audience excited. Excellent concert! My review would have been 5 stars but Brad Mehldau (Trio) avoided playing anything from Brad's current album until the encores. And only in the third and final encore. What gives?! Perhaps my expectation of more music from the recently released "Your Mother Should Know" was misplaced? But I know I wasn't the only one yelling out "Blackbird!" when the group came back out for the 3rd encore and FINALLY played a cover of a Beatles song.....but not Blackbird. :-/

Brad and his fine quintet gave the packed audience their money’s worth of quality music. Christian McBride’s bass playing took center stage in my opinion. I was disappointed that Brad didn’t treat us to a solo piano song or two. Brad was good but not exceptional. The audience volume prior to the show was uncomfortably loud, over 95db. I wished I brought my earplugs.

Probably the finest jazz quartet in the last ten years at the top of their form. An honour to see them.

Fantastic concert!! Great musicians! The venue was nice, comfortable & easy to get inside. & get to your seat. I highly recommend.

True Grand Masters of their craft. It was an absolute privilege to witness this legendary quartet live. We were blown away by the skilled nuance and precision in their musical talents. Thank you, thank you for coming to SoCal.

Such a wonderful sweet powerfull trio. Brad meldhau is one of the best composer musician ever he's so intense that makes you travel with mind during all the concert

Great piano solo and orchestra concert. I do love the interpretation and variations of the beautiful piece "Little by little" by Radiohead. Brad Mehldau has the ability to give music a special personal poetical sound always in evolution.

Incroyable, généreux, énergique : 3 mots pour décrire ce concert Le plus beaucoup concert de jazz auquel j'ai pu assister Merci

2h de concert, un super moment. Toutes les nuances du saxophone chez Joshua. Une main gauche incroyable chez Brad. Et toujours de l'inventivité dans de longs et beaux échanges.

Two guys so masterly knowing each other, knowing their instrument, they take all the opportunity to explore the song they play, turn it inside out, not afraid to play very little but just the right notes. Simply an immense joy to see them play and be free. Such masters they are.

Brad played like a dream, exploring a whole range of genres from jazz, classical to pop, bringing a fresh sound to them.

Good and solid performance of this famous trio. It lacked some excitement, but overall I was satisfied with the concert. Larry Granedier was great!
