  • My brain just exploded. Improvising a bass line while singing runs, and both melodies are incredible and in counterpoint. Bach would be proud.

  • jazz as a new angel esperanz the shit!!!!!

  • @bayareamagic - I was at this performance, and I have to say that she was not one of my favorite performers THAT DAY. However, for me, that had a lot to do with choice of song and arrangement. True, she probably can't stand up to the best vocalists - the past "greats", but I love her musicianship and overall talent. I really respect true musicians in this day and age. Can't wait to check out her CD.

  • you're part of the mass

  • Ok just to make sure ...Color , tint , has nothing to do with this right. people are actually listening to her Voice right ? and comparing it to other past Greats. Just wanted to make sure. I will keep an open mind for the next 5 songs...

  • Pure poetry. Incredible.

  • @jazzgod101 you obviously can't infer what people are trying to convey very well... you thought aligous had said the complete opposite of what you thought.

  • PERFECT!!!

  • so artistic!!!! Music from the depths of her soul to ours!!! Thank you.

  • so artistic!!!!
