The title and most of the comments seem to give all the credit for this fine recording to Norah Jones. But the piano is played by the great Marian Mc Partland. She deserves equal credit.
Oh no, some comment just revealed .. Nora is not actually the pianist here!? It's arian McPartland.. the great radio show host, whom we revered. So I admire Ms Jones way less for allowing the her publst or record company to alter the picture here to lead us her fans, to think she can really play ...like never before. So sad
Let's be honest. Her talent is that she CAN sing such a great classic and NOT sound like its a remake or a cover. No matter who did it before she puts her own unique talent to work. I know great music and she moves me every time. Norah is way under-appreciated.
Definitely. This is much better than Lana Del Ray's version ....which I feel is too slow. But Norah's version is just right tempo wise, and that piano playing is exquisite, and so classy. Norah could easily be a Jazz singer and pianist.
Dear Ms Jones: Mr. Gershwin has to be really proud of your version. No doubt about it. What a gift! This is a treasure, a jewel hidden for me… until now. I have opened my gift today! You triggered me. You are my friend now or I hope so if you permit me that. You are playing the promise to get our world something better. No barriers for good feelings… inner feelings on the depth of our hearts. That is been a prayer for everyone being a better human being. Congratulations for your lesson of love trough music. I know that you know that God blessed Mr. Gershwin before of your touching performance. May God bless you… or maybe you are blessed already. Thank you so much.
I just recently caught on to her. Definitely the more I hear the more I like. Then consider her father was one of the greatest musicians ever. A real original.
I think she sounds very beautiful and makes one comfortable. Because I am not single so don't know why you said she sounds no one else like her could you tell me where is she distinctive voice?
It's true. I'm 16 and when I heard her beautiful voice I could appreciate even more this kind of music that I already love. Thank you Norah, for your performances!
I sing Summertime almost daily, several times a day. This interpretation has left me speechless, I simply love it, WOW, I sing it as a lullaby, no excitement, hey, what kid, is gonna sleep to this? When I sing JAZZY stuff to my grandson, WE DANCE!!!!
THIS is why i appreciate Utube & all U uploaders...i never heard of her before, but U can bet Ur paycheck i'll own a cd by week's end! this is PERFECT music to wind down with at the end of a day.
I cannot say I know a great deal about music, but I remember the very first time I saw this lady walk onto a music video I was looking at - that just came on - I saw, heard and remarked in my own head, "Wow! That little girl has such a command of what she is doing; I've not ever seen anything like it!" I am still in 2013, amazed at how gracious and how humble she seems to be with her incredible knowledge and abilities in music. Sad we didn't have the video.
The excellent accompaniment on piano, is an extraordinary English jazz pianist and composer Ms. Margaret Marian Turner (McPartland), (20 March 1918 - 20 August 2013), R.I.P.
Wow,3 awsome talents ,the great GERSHWIN CLASSIC,played by the wonderful Marian Mcpartlan who i grew up listening to and the very talented NORA JONES. WOW
Great Ms. Jones and McPartland… You've performed that touching the heart, the heaven, the brain and all the feelings. Congratulations. Summertime is full of artistic democracy so you feel that music on your way. Even more: You spread the musical citizenship with that: Music is full of opposite equality feelings for everyone. God bless Mr. Gershwin endessly.
My god the amount of renditions for this piece is astounding. It leaves no doubt in my mind that the father of American pop music is and will always be Mr. George Gershwin RIP :)
Sem desfazer de outras interpretações famosas desta música, parece ter sido feita para Norah Jones. É incrível como ela consegue 'fazer dela' o que canta. Formidável: uma artista completa; para mim, a melhor da atualidade. Vida longa, Norah!
Great version! Amazing, that there are still today young musicians that know songs like this - and are good enough to make GOOD versions. Brings this music to the young fans. Well done, Norah!
My late wife loved listening to you at night. It helped take the pain away for awhile, thank you for all you do.
Hope it helps with your pain Jim.
😪💙
All prayers and condolences for your loss sir,jw.org
Jim
Please look at jw.org just like Sue rose says
A big hug for you Jim. Hope things are going better for you and your family
Drinking whiskey and listening to Norah Jones on a weeknight might be the appitomy of human advancement.
Could be!! Why not 🎉. We're in for a bumpy ride here

I hear 2 pianos.
@@jhersk Yeah, I play piano, and I just don't see any way humanly possible to play all that with just two hands and one take.
Yea they made it look like Norah was playing.
One of the most classic songs of all time...never gets old
I have an Old Soul. Her music fills my soul tremendously. Anyone else feel this way? Awesome!
Denise - you call it old soul but perhaps its a soul never getting old :) Awesome it is I agree. Beautiful - time stands still listening to this

Oh woah!
Never thought about it that way!

She DEFINETLY makes it her own!

You don’t know how appreciative we are.
I hear Janis Joplin as well!! So many beautiful people have given us this beautiful song.
The fact that NORAH makes everything she plays and sings her own is what makes her so great..

We listened to Marian's radio show for years - "Piano Jazz" I think. A treasure.

beautiful. I love jazz and I love Norah Jones and I love Marian McPartland
Marian wil always remain a classic, a great jazz pianist, I could listen to Nora Jones all day long and often do while I’m throwing pottery!
Beautiful, effortless and always special admiration for those who can sing and play at the same time.
Se non ci fosse la musica non sarebbe vita!!! Dio salvi la musica♥️💕
Very refreshing bluesy version of this classic. Rest In Peace, Marian, you will be greatly missed!
Thanks. One of the best modern day jazz singers AND THE PIANO WORK IS FANTASTIC.
Nora Jones cannot sing.
Yeah ehhhh....
To fine Pianists here, 'Marian McPartland' & 'Norah Jones' !!

I just recently caught on to her. Definitely the more I hear the more I like. Then consider her father was one of the greatest musicians ever. A real original.
Reminds me of growing up in the city in the summer ! Miss the youth , miss the big city ! Thank you for the song .
Wow! Norah has a country side AND a jazz side. AWESOME cover.
excellent well done young lady ....talent plus what a gift Thank-you for sharing your beauty with all willing to listen,,
"Summertime" ~ so profound ... so prophetic ... so soothing !! ⚘🌻💕
Classic song. She does it justice. Beautiful cover.
I've been searching for this version for ever... awesome
What I love about Norah, aside from her physical beauty, is her distinctive voice. She sounds like no one else and nobody sounds like her.
So true
I think she sounds very beautiful and makes one comfortable. Because I am not single so don't know why you said she sounds no one else like her could you tell me where is she distinctive voice?
comme pour chaque voix ! qui est unique !
@@kinedwin5290 Distinctive because it is intantly recognizable as "her" voice with the first notes your hear, distinctively Norah.
She sounds a little like Billie Holliday
First time I've heard this version. Fantastic! Thanks for posting it.
I love this version! She is incredible!
It's true. I'm 16 and when I heard her beautiful voice I could appreciate even more this kind of music that I already love. Thank you Norah, for your performances!
She is Ravi Shankar's daughter
excellent well done young lady ....talent plus what a gift Thank-you for sharing your beauty with all willing to listen,,
An absolutely superb presentation of the famous song by Norah Jones.
what a fantastic rendition of this song ,loved it
Norah is truly amazing. McPartland goes back halfway to forever in the jazz world. This version also echoes Doc Watson's bluegrass version.
Wow. now this damn good. Best rendition I've ever heard. Talented young woman indeed. Love it Norah
Such a wonderful song and your rendition of it is amazing. Thank you..Karen Rae
Classy Lady, with an outstanding voice and style. Love it !!
Effective and beautiful playing and singing!

How about the Walker Brothers version... any takers?

beautiful piano playing and great voice, love this song
What a good voice ! What a good piano version !!! Thanks !!!
It doesn't get much better than this, my treasured Son's favourite.
You should get Darci Lynn's Petunia rendition.
Her phrasing is all her own..and makes every song she sings..her own as well….and I can say the same for her piano…
There’s so much love and peace just listening to u sing ,in my heart
Hello fellow sri lankan!

Listen to her sing “come away with me”.
Love this performance of her singing a beautiful version of summertime just marvelous
I expected to hear good singing (It is!) but the piano interpretation is Soooo enjoyable!!! Great job! Best piano of Summertime that I've heard!
A great Norah Jones ! I dig your music ! So unique !
What do you admire most about Norah
I cannot say I know a great deal about music, but I remember the very first time I saw this lady walk onto a music video I was looking at - that just came on - I saw, heard and remarked in my own head, "Wow!

Fabulous. Great talent and easy listening. Lounge music to perfection
Love this song...a classic...Norahs' take on it is unique, just like Norah, a classy lady with so such talent...🌹🌹🌹

“Summertime” may be the perfect song.

Had to be someone special - I was blown away by these chords!
1ElCondor Summertime Anna moffo
These are pretty much the chords as described by Gershwin orchestrally and printed in the 'real book'@@auursigurkarlsdottir6114
@@FrancisMaxino Gershwin was a genius before his time--and left us much too soon.
The images got me thinking Norah was playing and I was "WHAT". Some of those intermediate chords were just... damn.
Norah voice is so smooth and great..
Toda LINDA! Canta demais, e ainda toca um piano irretocavel! Nota 1.000!
Encantadora versión!!! Muchas gracias.
Heard this song in a coffee shop. Really love her music and voice.
Wow,3 awsome talents ,the great GERSHWIN CLASSIC,played by the wonderful Marian Mcpartlan who i grew up listening to and the very talented NORA JONES. WOW

whenthereapercomes very true......when a blues singer like Miss Norah comes along, just like fine wine, it gets better & better, with time.....🍷💫🕊
About Gershwin yes you are definitely right

Great voice, great talent, in fact out of the ordinary talent....love her rendition of Summertime, in fact one of the best I've heard.
Norah is just a superb talent how could any real music lover not enjoy this version of an all time classic!
Sem desfazer de outras interpretações famosas desta música, parece ter sido feita para Norah Jones. É incrível como ela consegue 'fazer dela' o que canta. Formidável: uma artista completa; para mim, a melhor da atualidade. Vida longa, Norah!

What a nice jazzy version of this tune. Love Norah always!!!
We are routinely introduced to this beautiful version here. We were very comfortable with that. Great. 4:05
Great piano and lovely singing!

It's not a fine wine divine time unless it rhymes.

excellente et généreuse version,merci belle Norah
Good voice, good interpretación ! Special pianist!
This my friends is known as tonic to soothe the soul. Beautiful smooth-as-silk voice and great piano.
