[evafoi]

mesmerizing

[32xxxzulu]

A classy, jazzy lady of song !

[ocnoreen]

What a fabulous artist she was. The tears are falling. She could make you believe what she sang, like Lady but her own style. Great pianist as well. The whole thing!

[PSYLLA2020]

I've been a fan of Miss Horn for decades.... what a fantastic treat it is to be able to see her again live... God bless YouTube!!!

[sambear1964]

My Lord, this is just so beautiful--supreme musicianship, gorgeous lyrics, and the lullaby voice of Miss Shirley Horn. She was definitely an 'only', and I miss her greatly.

[Poemsapennyeach]

Very cool woman and musicians...

[100kns]

How could ANONE not like this? They're either deaf or ignorant simpletons...

[monkman51]

@100kns Perhaps they didn't like the slightly-muddy sound quality?

[Arborwaychet]

A jazz lesson by Shirley Horn

[gealoa]

it hurts really bad when the lyric is your exact situation. GREAT MUSIC, WHAT CAN BE BETTER THAN HANCOCK FT JOBIM?

[Colombiani]

I love this so much.

SO MUCH.

DAMN.

すばらしすぎる！言葉を失います・・・

[johndega]

MUSIC DOESN'T GET MORE EXPRESSIVE THAN THIS. THANK GOD FOR THE

ART OF RECORDING.

[cbs2don]

Love her music. She's my favorite. I regreat that I wasn't able to experience her amazing and unique talent in person. Miles did us a great favor by discovering her.

[gholley66]

Everyone should take the time to get to know the music of Shirley Horn, I was blessed to see her in concert. She is a master!

[honeybee7700]

So beautiful but I couldn't finish the video because I was crying too much

[BodhiSvaha]

the most moving piece of music i have ever heard

[thereportersclinic]

How bout' this... "Job had the patience of Horn"... what incredible command of time.

[breckg20]

SUCH EMOTION!

[ChristophePhilippe]

Stunning. 

[traceymanzano]

this woman sings form the bottom of her soul!!!!!!

[correaol]

It's amazing...at São Paulo Free Jazz, they got together Hancock (keyboard), Castro Neves (guitar), Ron Carter (b), Acuna (d) and the fabulous voice and piano of Ms. Horn, in a tribute to the greater Brazilian composer Antonio Carlos Brasileiro Jobim. Tks. to bring this video.

[swanstep]

Awesome, awesome talent. Thanks so much for uploading this.

[caendemaria]

Mr. Hearbie Hancock . Miss Shirley Horn , Mr. Ron Carter , Miss Gal Costa , Mr Castro

Neves , Mr. Alex Acuña , what a kind of talent ¡¡¡ , it's simple amazing , thanks for this pearl , thanks for the music that I loved....

[grammy70]

This may be my all time favorite Jobim song......plaintive, romantic, poetic....but maybe that's really redundant afterall......and Shirley Horn? How could i want for more??? I LOVE THIS SONG!!!!

[ErictheJazzer]

I 'discovered' the supreme musician Shirley Horn relatively late in life. Oh, all those wasted years......

Thank you for your elegant piano playing and singing Shirley. Gone on ahead of us but never forgotten.

[jazzymod]

She's one of my idol, SUBPERB. This song reminds me of my beloved husband who has passed away almost a year. Darling, you will always stays in my heart until my very last breath. Yours forever.

[1ted4u]

Man, music so effortless, so soothing to the ear and spirit. What a talented performer. Her lyrics fall like water from a waterfall. Performances like this are timeless. She is truly missed. Thank you for this post.

[grenadian11]

saved to my favorites!

[maidoodesu]

so nice ! ですね.

[MattieSongbird]

oh...chills....major major chills....

[2baholic]

slow and steady as only Shirley can do.!

[loulou2lou]

I can get so into her voice.The musicians seem to exude glee that they are part of something great happening on stage.

[LITURGHIERUL]

ilove this version!

[rinkydinkron]

The rhythm section really struggled to work as a team in this performance. The drummer really needed to lead and was found wanting. That said, Shirley is fabulous as always.

[deacon6967]

What a post! What a talent! Only someone who is truly blessed could inspire the types of comments included here. Blessings, Miss Horn.

[merysognasempre]

wonderful. Voice of paradise

[jazzmaniac57]

beautiful oh so shirley...one of my fav bossa nova songs

[wouldreaux]

Was cruising channels just now in the wee hours and stumbled on this performance airing on Classic Art Showcase on PBS. Was immediately moved to pick my iPhone and google the performance. Sure enough, here it is.

Shirley Horn's voice transported me to another time and place. Simply amazing. Thank you for archiving this moment in history and sharing it with the world.

[mysticgatherings]

this song just reduces you to nothing. I wasn't ready for it.

[kalpubinc]

The best things, the vital things in life are simple like water. Shirley Horn is the epitome, the sythesis of water, and like water, she remains for ever.

[alyhaymark]

indeed!!! timeless and lovely as all timeless things are!!!

[robertosms]

@kalpubinc inspiring comment, thank you for writing it! :-)

[kalpubinc]

[ChefNVogue]

@kalpubinc So , so true ............

[lamusicahera]

One of her last performances live and so crazy good -better than many youngsters who are trying to sing with heart and soul and brain...

Intelligent Singing but so Delicious

[lileeza]

not many people can work a slow tune like that...

miss shirley, you invented stillness as an artform, and showed the world that you didnt have to rip thru a melody to get the point across, and you are missed.

[signoradabuttare]

Once I Loved.. Once I Loved

[tackorgybe]

One fantastic singer missed by the whole world of jazz. R.I.P.

[JezzesKaresz]

fantastic!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!4­

[ramalho123]

Could anyone upload Once I Loved with Sinatra? It's a great register, and worthwile check it here.

[AndrewLA52]

I rencently discovered Shirley Horn while listening to a jazz show. It was clear that I had missed a true gem in the jazz world. However, I will not miss her anymore and will cherish her voice everytime I hear it. Rest in Peace!

[lynntracey]

I miss her...she was amazing as was Antonio Carlos Jobim

[martinez110485]

Sublime... sublime...

[wavebossanova]

thanks to you i've now watched this probably 100 times in the last month. :)

[wadetyrrell]

I thank you so - for posting this again. I had found it last year from another posting and fell in love immediately. The song is so haunting, so real. She literally tears out my heart. In learning more about her, I was saddened to see that she has passed and have tried hard to collect her music. I do believe in angels.

[iggy5858]

Once I loved...her name... Shirley Horn.

[michellev222]
