Another test for the Windows Movie Maker split screen effect. Jazz singer Michelle Benjamin sings the not-often-played ballad by Johnny Mandel and Dave Frishberg - 'You Are There'
It is one of my favourite things to do - it is a challenge because it depends on each being able to instantly respond to the other. My favourites are Bill Evans with Tony Bennett, Fred Hersch (with quite a few different vocalists) and John Taylor (with Norma Winstone).

  • Very, very nice. Good rendition. And Michelle is very easy on the eyes. Bravo.

  • you two just blew my mind, so glad I found your video, smiling big NOW !

  • Yamaha P250??

  • @qzguitar there's a short version of it in mark levines jazz pianist book

  • Very very good. I cannot seem to find a version of this song. Is there a certain album or session that bill evans is featured on?

    ?

  • gorgeous voice my darling. x

  • What a beautiful rendition of one of my favorite tunes. Kudos to the vocalist and the piano player! (From a bass player) I always thought what a great lyric for a memorial service or funeral (if the singer could hold it together...)

  • This is so useful, thankyou! Working with a singer at the moment and as it's nothing either of us have really done this will help so much!

    Beautiful playing/singing too :-)

  • I got a lump in my throat and something in my eye. Damn! Amazing!!

  • man , so much bill evans's influence in your playing

    rhythmic approach ,modal chord ,even few single line that you've played ,reminding me of bill evans so much
