    I'm a fellow jazz musician. I must say this is one of the best interpretations of this song I've ever heard. I find myself coming back to this arrangement pretty often. Great work and good luck to you in all of your endeavors

    Awww,I grew up on this song. My mom played the organ and would sing this. First song that I learned to play. This is Beautiful.

    Love what she does with the song. Different and refreshingly upbeat, with some great backing and superb scatting.

    YOU have the voice, true jazz scat style, and , of course, the personality. Hope that the opportunity presents itself for you to be given a shot; YOU'll nail it manifold! I love you. Diana Reeves is perhaps smiling approvrngly.

    Very impressed to hear something new (about the rendition of this standard) and very well performed by the singer and the whole band.
    I'm a drummer and I use to play in Palermo, Sicily, Italy, with a trio some fusion and acoustic instrumental jazz. I love the melodic
    line of this song, and imho I find the most part of its versions as listened on youtube, quite boring.
    I do sincerely my best compliments for your voice,your interpretation, your professional and punctual scat. I liked too the proper arrangiamento and smooth performance of your partner musicians. 'Ad maiora', Joanna! Eugenio, Gene.

    • @JoannaMajoko
      @JoannaMajoko  8 ปีที่แล้ว

  • @emilerose1424

    Clear scatting; Great phrasing, enchanting voice. Totally enjoyable experience! Everything seemed to come naturally as opposed to being forced--like some pretenders to the jazz vocal throne. Well done! Keep going, keep going, keep going!

    Softly as in a morning sunrise
    The light of love comes stealing
    Into a newborn day
    Flaming with all the glow of sunrise
    A burning kiss is sealing
    A vow that all betray
    For the passions that thrill love
    And take you high to heaven
    Are the passions that kill love
    And let it fall to hell
    So ends the story
    Softly as in a morning sunrise
    The light that gave you glory
    Will take it all away
    Softly as in a morning sunrise
    The light of love comes stealing
    Into a newborn day
    Flaming with all the glow of sunrise
    A burning kiss is sealing
    A vow that all betray
    For the passions that thrill love
    And take you high to heaven
    Are the passions that kill love
    And let it fall to hell
    So ends the story
    Softly as in a morning sunrise
    The light that gave you glory
    Will take it all away
    Softly as it fades away
    Softly as it fades away
    Softly as it fades away
    Softly as it fades away

    Not happening. First, sing the melody correctly. Then if you're going to improvise, don't just bullshit around the tonality not quite hitting the pitches, actually learn the harmonic structure of the tune and be able to nail the notes you're going for. Watch this: th-cam.com/video/L33LYC0n5rA/w-d-xo.html Then, listen to some Chet Baker vocal improvising...
