Fred Hersch Trio - Jazz à Ramatuelle - 2018

About This Movie

So, there's this documentary of the Fred Hersch Trio captured at the Jazz à Ramatuelle festival in 2018, but released in 2022. The vibe is very intimate, almost like you're there in the front row, soaking it all in. The pacing flows wonderfully—jazz doesn’t rush, and neither does this film. The cinematography complements the music, with close-ups that really highlight Hersch's delicate touch on the piano. There's a rawness to their performances, an emotional depth that really resonates without being over-the-top. The way they interact with each other is fascinating too, showing a deep connection among the trio. It’s a nice slice of live jazz that feels warm and genuine.
