這一集,我們邀請到 Jon Batiste。他是八座葛萊美獎得主、25 項葛萊美入圍者,也曾以皮克斯電影《靈魂急轉彎》的爵士配樂拿下奧斯卡與金球獎,並獲得艾美獎肯定。這場對話從他的車上開始,一路聊到他家裡,過程即興而自然,就像他這個人一樣。
Jon Batiste 來自紐奧良的音樂世家,茱莉亞音樂學院訓練出身,卻從不把自己關在單一曲風裡——古典、爵士、藍調、福音、流行,可以同時活在一張專輯裡。2022 年,他以專輯《We Are》橫掃葛萊美 11 項提名、拿下 5 座大獎,包含年度專輯;而他為《靈魂急轉彎》創作的爵士樂,更讓他同時抱回奧斯卡、金球與葛萊美。
從紐奧良的成長記憶、《靈魂急轉彎》幕後的創作故事,到卡內基廳突然停電、他在黑暗裡即興演奏了整整 15 分鐘——這集的每一段對話,都在回答同一個問題:音樂,到底是什麼?
如果你心裡有些什麼,說不清楚、也放不下——或許這集能幫你輕輕卸下。

In this episode, Jon Batiste, the Oscar-winning composer behind Pixar’s Soul, an eight-time Grammy winner with 25 Grammy nominations, joins us for a conversation that started in his car and continued all the way home. It was improvisational and natural, just like the man himself.
Jon Batiste comes from a musical dynasty in New Orleans. Trained at Juilliard, yet his world refuses to stay in one lane — classical, jazz, blues, gospel, and pop can all live in the same album.
His record We Are earned 11 Grammy nominations and five wins, including Album of the Year. For Soul, he composed all of the film's jazz music and walked away with an Oscar, a Golden Globe, and a Grammy.
From his New Orleans roots and the untold story behind Soul, to an unexpected power outage at Carnegie Hall that became 15 minutes of pure improvisation — every part of this conversation circles back to the same question: what is music, really?
If you've been carrying something you can't quite name — this conversation might help you set it down.
