This song (Armstrong's) used to make me really sad, similar to the ways Somewhere Over the Rainbow and You Are My Sunshine-do. They're songs that when taken at face value feel fairly innocuous but when are examined more closely, are felt more deeply, they hit in this really melancholy way. Then this came along and I am left thinking, in spite of all the present day troubles, yeah, it is. I still have hope and see the potential for it to be... This is such a special performance and such a reverent piece. Dear Jon Batiste, you're an alchemist and a deeply needed balm. Thank you for all you give.
Ohhh my…I cried !!! How beautiful! This is a reminder… I have to find the Wonder that exists in this dark world. What a beautiful, pure spirit!!! Thank you John Baptiste 🥰🥰🥰xoxo
If there is a Heaven, this is what it would sound like Peace If there is a place for the weary soul, this is what it will sound like to their ears. Rest If you believe in love, this is what it would sound like Promise If you believe in the gift of life, that we can make it to the other side, this is what it would sound like Hope Thank you Jon !!!
WHY IS THAT? YOU MUST BE A PRO PIANIST YOURSELF. ALTHOUGH I LIKED IT A LOT. SIMPLICITY DOES IT FOR ME IN MUSIC. SO WITH ALL THE DYNAMICS, I LIKE REPETITIONS A LOT. ELSE I GET DISTRACTED WITH TOO MUCH TRANSITIONS. DON'T KNOW IF IT'S A RESULT OF ADHD OR SOME.
The tune is memorable. This version sounded different than the ones from Louis Armstrong years ago. It sounded totally original with a symphony orchestra in the background.
So much sincerity in this man and the whole orchestra that shines through each moment. Unbearable (to me) in January of 2024 as the world fails to stop horror in Gaza.
So glad to finally hear your music. Juan Avilla introduction us over the phone. You used to call me after your shows. I loved our impromptu conversations Happy you are married now and super happy. Be well, my friend, and I will keep listening. 🎶 🙏 🌞
That is fair. I saw this as a perfect version for something like the end of a documentary either about nature or about human resilience or from birth to puberty/adulthood. I saw flashes of children laughing and playing in different places around the world, interspersed with clips of pictures of different natural phenomena like birds and butterflies migrating, salmon going upstream and little baby monkeys playing, and ending with a bride dancing with her grandfather and a groom with his grandmother on the same dancefloor. So I appreciated it for what it evoked but I would agree it probably wouldn't be me go to listen for the song, Louis Armstrong's version would be that for me

Beautiful Soul makes Beautiful Music. You bring Lightness to our troubled world Jon Baptiste.
Unbelievable. I cried. He is a saint.
Thank you from Massachusetts.
What beautiful piece of music 🥺
❤
Such a beautiful song. My father passed last week and your song has brought me some level of comfort. Thank you.
Most beautiful version of this song ever. Thank you so much sweet Jon. God love you
What a Wonderful performance!
Jon Batiste.
Enough said.
Beautiful! Made me cry❤
I am new to this version of: »what a wonderful world ».It’s beautiful.
Always sensitive and unique interpretation.
The best version i’ve ever heard since i was a baby! Definitely gorgeous!
I have to admit that the repetition of that one note gets under my skin. But Mr. Batiste does lighten my world.
This whole arrangement gave me the ick several times. He’s such a good musician and I wish he got a better version. Was it arranged by Ben Folds?
WHY IS THAT? YOU MUST BE A PRO PIANIST YOURSELF. ALTHOUGH I LIKED IT A LOT. SIMPLICITY DOES IT FOR ME IN MUSIC. SO WITH ALL THE DYNAMICS, I LIKE REPETITIONS A LOT. ELSE I GET DISTRACTED WITH TOO MUCH TRANSITIONS. DON'T KNOW IF IT'S A RESULT OF ADHD OR SOME.
Very nice rendition of a beautiful classic. Thank you.
I’ve always loved his beautiful version of What A Wonderful World, but his version with an orchestra? Ugh so marvelous❤️
AMAZING TALENT!!!!
Ben Folds presents Jon Batiste playing Louis Armstrong....WOW🎼❣️
ジョンデンバさんの声は心地良くて癒やされてます❤ありがとうございます♿
What a wonderful we so easily lose sight of. Thanks for reminding us! 🥰
Absolutely Heavenly! Bless u all & especially my DEAR John, thank God he belongs to us alllllllll!
Louis Armstrong would have been proud.
This is just f*cking beautiful
A gift.
When I hear him play . When I hear him sing I feel for sure how lucky I am 😊
Who the heck does a 16/16 beat song??? Masterpiece!!!
Beautiful soul!!!🎉🎉🎉
Wow....my dream to sing with such a Orchestra....Just wow
We R ALLLLL Blessed ! 💕💕💕
That was the song my husband and I walked back down the aisle to as husband and wife. This made my day.
This is an all embracing hug, peaceful, tranquil, sobering yet reassuring from the bosom of the celestial fountain.....to us mere mortals.....
The tune is memorable. This version sounded different than the ones from Louis Armstrong years ago. It sounded totally original with a symphony orchestra in the background.
That is an incredible cover.
What a wonderful World !!! une de mes chansons préférées ( pour plein de raisons ) toute en sensibilité 😌 merci Jon 🙏
In tears…this is stunning. 🥹
A somewhat sombre beginning, but I found it reflective of a 2023/2024 world. Still a thread of hope for a wonderful world. Peace and Love☮💌
So much sincerity in this man and the whole orchestra that shines through each moment. Unbearable (to me) in January of 2024 as the world fails to stop horror in Gaza.
His talent and self purpose of life melt among us
That is a complete knockout - WOW!
Wow!!!

I've really enjoyed Jon Batiste's work. Not this time, for me. Louis Armstrong cinched this song for all time.
That is fair. I saw this as a perfect version for something like the end of a documentary either about nature or about human resilience or from birth to puberty/adulthood. I saw flashes of children laughing and playing in different places around the world, interspersed with clips of pictures of different natural phenomena like birds and butterflies migrating, salmon going upstream and little baby monkeys playing, and ending with a bride dancing with her grandfather and a groom with his grandmother on the same dancefloor. So I appreciated it for what it evoked but I would agree it probably wouldn't be me go to listen for the song, Louis Armstrong's version would be that for me
Amazing performance but I don’t believe the writers credit at the end is correct…
