Musician and singer Jon Batiste joins CNN's Chris Wallace to demonstrate how music can cross genres. Watch the full episode of "Who's Talking to Chris Wallace," streaming on Max. #CNN #shorts
If Jon puts out a stream of classicial music with these accents, I'm here for it. Met him once, so sweet and considerate. Didn't act like a diva at all!! Love him!!!❤🥰
Jon is one of the most inspiring and creative musicians I've heard in my 75 years. We have all been blessed to hear him and others in this time in history where the diversity of music has been so amazing. Viva diversity!
If you've watched the Pixar movie Soul, you've heard of him. He co-composed the score. It is his hands at the piano in the movie. There is a making of the movie where the show the animators recreating his finger movements. It's really cool. The Late Show with Stephen Colbert 2015 - 2022, he was part of the house band.
Mr. Batiste, I’ve missed seeing you on late night TV, although I know you are destined for much bigger things. Your beautiful energy, intelligence, and talent fill up any space you occupy. I’m so happy to run across you here! Keep blessing the world, will you? Don’t stop. You are loved! ❤️
Yes, Beethoven and Bach and Chopin and many other great composers all lend themselves to fantastic and perfect jazz, blues and many other musical forms...and if it opens the doors to new groups of fans such as those who like the great Jon Batiste...all the better....open that door!
I love watching Jon Batiste play the piano. That smile, it's infectious. And the way his fingers fly, ever so lightly, over those ivories. Wow! I smile every time. I miss him on Colbert.
The fact that hundreds of years later, we still harken back to Beethoven Chopin, Mozart, Bach. is a testament to the music and creativity and composition. Think of the thousands of artists and the one hit. There’s nobody gives a shit about anymore.
When Jon plays his piano and then smiles and laughs, he brings hope and happiness to whoever is lucky enough to be nearby ❤️
Whow, dude.
You are now watching a master at work!
Its disgusting. He ruined it
@@antoniovivaldi6053He was demonstrating how music can shift genres. He wasn’t saying it should be changed or trying to make it better.
@@camdenharris834 people actually listen to stuff like this? ew.
@@antoniovivaldi6053lmao! You are ruined. Thank goodness the world doesn’t run on your hatred😂
@antoniovivaldi6053 Absolutely, definitely, undoubtedly, yes, we do. Jon's genius is indisputable.

Honestly… I like it better this way 💯
I can't stop listening. . Such much needed beauty in the face of the world's war time atrocities we are living in real time.
Mastery is when you can learn an art form and then transform it. Brilliant!
