Now I have just found a new Tiny Desk Concert with three Beatles pieces and decided to make the English version now.<\/p>\n<p>The last years concert is still available.

But instead of stepping into a phone booth to put on a cape, he straps on his trusty Fender Telecaster and strides onstage.<\/p>\n<p>Think of Frisell as a master painter who takes traditional American music forms like jazz, blues and folk and melds them into evocative soundscapes. Digging deep into the heart of Americana has been a wellspring of inspiration throughout his career. His recent projects include scoring soundtracks for the films of the great silent-era comedian Buster Keaton. His latest album consists of musical impressions of the photos by the man known as &#8220;Disfarmer,&#8221; a 1940s-era rural Arkansas artist and photographer who took stark black and white portraits of the local townfolk.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>A great piece in this concert is <strong>Poem for Eva<\/strong> (begin at ca. 35:00) &#8211; I have found the following video with a solo version &#8211; Bill Frisell uses a looper device and other sound effect devices to produce a full sound like from a complete band:<\/p>\n<h4 id=\"watch-headline-title\">Bill Frisell &#8211; Poem for Eva<\/h4>\n<div class=\"ast-oembed-container \" style=\"height: 100%;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Bill Frisell - Poem For Eva\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/UXOiTBuC28w?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<h4>Playlist Bill Frisell<\/h4>\n<p>At the end of the playlist I have added several interviews with Bill Frisell.<\/p>\n<div class=\"ast-oembed-container \" style=\"height: 100%;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Bill Frisell - Jazz-Gitarre\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/videoseries?list=PL90B002E165515136\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<h4>Additional Information<\/h4>\n<p>NPR Tiny Desk Konzert March 2012: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.npr.org\/event\/music\/146156479\/bill-frisell-tiny-desk-concert\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">http:\/\/www.npr.org\/event\/music\/146156479\/bill-frisell-tiny-desk-concert<\/a><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>&#8220;Nowhere Man&#8221;<\/li>\n<li>&#8220;In My Life&#8221;<\/li>\n<li>&#8220;Strawberry Fields Forever&#8221;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Homepage Bill Frisell: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.billfrisell.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">http:\/\/www.billfrisell.com\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Interview <strong>A Fireside Chat with Bill Frisell<\/strong>: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.allaboutjazz.com\/php\/article.php?id=1156\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">http:\/\/www.allaboutjazz.com\/php\/article.php?id=1156<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Great 30 minutes video <strong>Big Think Interview With Bill Frisell<\/strong>: <a href=\"http:\/\/bigthink.com\/ideas\/20414\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">http:\/\/bigthink.com\/ideas\/20414<\/a><\/p>\n<h4>Sheet Music<\/h4>\n<p>Transcriptions of\u00a0 Bill Frisell pieces: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.oocities.org\/enalnitram\/book.html?20118\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">http:\/\/www.oocities.org\/enalnitram\/book.html?20118<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Transcription of &#8220;I got Rhythm&#8221;: <a href=\"http:\/\/thestringslinger.blogspot.com\/2010\/02\/bill-frisell-solo-on-i-got-rhythm.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">http:\/\/thestringslinger.blogspot.com\/2010\/02\/bill-frisell-solo-on-i-got-rhythm.html<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Three transcriptions by Bill Frisell: <a href=\"http:\/\/neilmattson.com\/transcriptions\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">http:\/\/neilmattson.com\/transcriptions\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p>CDs by Bill Frisell (amazon partnerlink)<\/p>\n<p>When You Wish Upon a Star<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" style=\"width: 120px; height: 240px;\" src=\"\/\/ws-na.amazon-adsystem.com\/widgets\/q?ServiceVersion=20070822&amp;OneJS=1&amp;Operation=GetAdHtml&amp;MarketPlace=US&amp;source=ss&amp;ref=ss_til&amp;ad_type=product_link&amp;tracking_id=mandoisland00-20&amp;marketplace=amazon&amp;region=US&amp;placement=B01887RB8U&amp;asins=B01887RB8U&amp;linkId=QDEHTRYMFYQVQFNH&amp;show_border=true&amp;link_opens_in_new_window=true\" width=\"300\" height=\"150\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><br \/>\n<\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>The Best of Bill Frisell, Vol. 1: Folk Songs<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" style=\"width: 120px; height: 240px;\" src=\"\/\/ws-na.amazon-adsystem.com\/widgets\/q?ServiceVersion=20070822&amp;OneJS=1&amp;Operation=GetAdHtml&amp;MarketPlace=US&amp;source=ss&amp;ref=ss_til&amp;ad_type=product_link&amp;tracking_id=mandoisland00-20&amp;marketplace=amazon&amp;region=US&amp;placement=B001EOOCRI&amp;asins=B001EOOCRI&amp;linkId=UJPFCQZI2XYUUP5Z&amp;show_border=true&amp;link_opens_in_new_window=true\" width=\"300\" height=\"150\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><br \/>\n<\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>One year ago the guitarist Bill Frisell has recorded a one hour concert with the NPR.
