I really appreciate Ms Horn's approach to this song. I would call it an organic approach, fitting of the Brazilian theme, as the melodic line "appears" through the rising mists of the rain forest.
Alicia Keys can play as they say, the folks of today, but this, Shirley Horn, pure talent, one of the best. if not the best Female Pianist out there, she was great~
um, um, um . . . my dear sweet lord, that shirley horn was something else. pure artistry. this was absolutely fantastic . . and that finger slide . . wow!
in 1908 a lady named sally rusa was in the woods looking for a dog until a ghost came and killed her so if ur reading this u will find a bloody body in your closet hanging there haunting you and will kill you and ur family and if u want to stop this just sends this to 6 videos in 30 mins or this will happen good luck
OK then, middle finger slide - I've watched it again. This is a masterclass in imaginative, tasteful, understated playing - and the bass and drums are perfect. Thanks for posting.
Fantastic - what a genius that lady was! The index finger slide at 4.40 made me laugh with joy. Thanks for posting - more always welcome. God bless Shirley Horn.
this lady is so awesome.no female is as good.fabulous & so cool.wow!!!

Hard to see a non Brazilian capturing the spirit and swing of Bossa Nova as she does here. Well Done!

Whenever I visited Rio I was lucky to stay in Copacabana. The street is named Ministro Alfredo Valadao. My bedroom
window looked up at Corcovado and Christ the
Redeemer. Thanks for posting and also thanks to Stephan!
