Beautiful + Sexy = Esperanza

[orjazzmicintentions]

In the eyes of a musician, these are the most beautiful women in the universe. I am in love with them.

[mecca777]

@orjazzmicintentions .....my sentiment exactly!!

[ColvinsWest]

This might be the sweetest thing i have ever heard...

[TheDominiq1012]

Her and Roy Hargrove need to do an album together....ULTIMATE

[77yangco]

Thank God jazz is alive!! Awesome!!!

[chelute]

After watching this I have become a firm believer in polygamy!

[janisBFF]

I can't even begin to explain how much I love this!

[oviefofah]

The description says it all o_o

[Lelerugby]

amazing

[erickapolinar]

This is just like heaven will be for me when I die, Gretchen and Esperanza signing and me listening while sipping some whiskey!

[Sadia1120]

Raw Talent!!...Sexy and Exhilerating

[EstudioGenesis]

Alguém mostra isso pro Teló.

[bradleymoorer]

There is still real music out there!!!!

[alwynn1]

Unblvb! The best jazz duo interp I've heard in a while!

[Bellauno02]

they are AMAZING!!!!

[jnrdryden1]

tears on my keyboard

[cmealy2011]

Awesome jam session!

[fiddlercrab3]

This is an incredible recording! These two are unbelievable. Gretchen is so laser-precise in tune! I thought the track was autotuned for a minute.

[kegbelly54]

Perhaps Morey should "open his mind" and ears.

[armato1970]

Hat off for this two ladies, they just turn my  bad mood today to a deep smile on my soul

[Freedomsongs25]

My fav track from this cd

[MultiJali7]

Really???? Have the CD love the song but never noticed it was just these two and the bass.....Just pure wonderful. I love the Song all over again.

[TheGWFrog]

This just absolutely took my breath away... It is somewhere far beyond amazing...

[mayacollette]

this is the most amazing thing i have ever heard!!!!

[iluvlycheenuts]

My chihuahua sat up in bed as I was playing this, walked over to my laptop & has fallen asleep right in front of the speakers [giggles]. How cool & sweet is that... :o)

[jasopiate]

I become very upset when this song ends.

[KARZJR]

oh my...

[MoreyKlein]

Esperanza is a phenomenal player and musician....Gretchen Parlato needs to OPEN her MOUTH when she sings ...so restricted and so stiff....sorry...my opinion......

[janhenkins]

This is truly transcendental music. Jazz is rich having these two incredible musicians...

[fuzzfactory]

Saw Gretchen live a year or so ago. Serious musicianship!!

[wwwrecmusiccouk]

Absolutely Amazing.........I love this song !!

[wayota88]

Qué elegancia y talento!

[jaysax90]

The name of this tune is "If You Never Come to Me", is it not?

[R0SSSANA]

[MrMbland]

They certainly know what to do ..

Brilliant jazz ..

Such a full sound with only one instrument ..

Very talented ladies ..

[CoolPhyaMusic]

@MrMbland Actually there are more than one instrument, their voice is an instrument.

[MrMbland]

@CoolPhyaMusic Very beautiful voices ..

[nutmegdesigns]

[marcomixbaretto]

[Joeh1154]

That was absolutely fantastic. I never heard this before and I was just knocked out. Great arrangement beautifully performed. Outstanding!

[TheNotoriousYJX]

Two people are useless.

[kierantheo]

Wooowwwww! songbirds for a lovely morning.

[oharawinter]

Is this session available on CD or something else? Google didn't turn up anything specific... Thanks!

[jjazzeee]

@oharawinter Yes, this is a track on Esperanza Spalding's last album, Chamber Music Society. I was lucky to see a live performance with Gretchen performing it on tour with Esperanza.

[oharawinter]

@jjazzeee Thanks! I saw both live, but never together... I wish they'd make a whole album together ;)

[petrmaly13]

Fucking perfect!!!!!

[adjbey]

Yep yep

[rubizzie]

Who the hell gave 2 dislikes !!!??? Are you fckn kidding me!!!???

[vstarr89]

It's funny because from the first song I heard by Gretchen I thought of Esperanza's music. Then the question ran through my mind: how magical would it be if these two jazzy ladies teamed up? Now thanks to the awesome bigbandman I no longer have to wonder! Lol

[uyen212]

insane!



[nccmrm97]

Nice

[Nemfis05]

[carissa813]

Reminds me a lot of Bobby McFerrin. WOW Just beautiful

[ecksoe]

oh my anatomical nucleus!

[Cannonbo]

HOLY SHIT! *jawdrop*

[Samjoe525]

Thank you so much for adding this video.

[NanaCasas1]

Obviously both of these women are incredible at their craft. I have not heard of Gretchen Parlato until I saw this. I believe I have another favorite musician other than Esperanza. You go girls!

[hippyblood4]

@NanaCasas1 check out Terri Lyne Carrington's "The Mosaic Project".an all female line up, with Gretchen, Sheila E, Esperanza, Dee Dee Bridgewater, Ingrid Jensen, etc, to many more great artst's 2 mention.

[multigrooves]

@hippyblood4 thx! Will look it up.

[gooddaze1]

@captainate She doesn't need auto tuning, she's a real musician. I've heard her live for years and her intonation is perfect, never a note out of tune. She couldn't have won the Thelonious Monk Competition if she needed tuning.

[orjazzmicintentions]

@captainate The first time I listened to gretchen I could not believe her perfect intonation. Her voice is perfection. I highly doubt that her voice has been tuned.

[ohjohnushouldnthave]

my mouth was hanging open from 0:00-4:54. shit is impossible.

[jmeans544]

@ohjohnushouldnthave haha thats funny



[KosmoAntoninus]

@ohjohnushouldnthave It is obviously possible, you mean improbable.

[ohjohnushouldnthave]

oh shit. oh shit. ah shit. aww shit. the feminist version of Bobby McFerrin. thank God for musique.

[krazykfyi17]

MUSIC!!!

[stumpymckeever]

There is no 'U' in Spalding.

[CateDoefer]

Who could possibly dislike this? Impossible.

[SHADIROC]

PERFECTION.

[Brugality]

Esperanza playing two instruments at once. Deep

[DanieActsLke238]

FANTASTIC... they are DEEPLY talented. :-) 

[eveatsea]

a one woman rhythm section...amazing

[bismocha]

too perfect to be true.

[StrawberryEater1]

Oh my god. I'm feeling all beautiful inside from listening to this.

[pwrgawd]

That was stunningly beautiful. Goodness.

[Biegelforever]
