Yeah well, this reinforces my opinion that while Esperanza has great ability, she is really very random in her re-workings of tunes. There's little about this arrangement which has any core to it, it eviscerates the vibe and beauty of the original, instead replacing it with shallow stylism.

Give me Esperanza over Rihanna anytime.

She can play, but she can't sing

I'm new fan of her work. Love her sound and her versatility.

UNPRECEDENTED SOUND ❤🔥

Very not impressed

Some great vocal chops. Equal to her bass playing. The flautist is working hard too!

🥰Outstanding. Touching

Be great to hear her sing some with Chaka Khan

Esperanza deserves all the recognition she can get. Every time I see her improv she just blows me away! 🎼

5:38 Ahhhhh he did the lick! smh lol. This whole performance was on point!

I finally learned the bass part to this.........Solid piece of work Ms. Spalding💖

I so love Glasper's interpretation of this song. Spalding is briliant.

I am writing this message as an authority on music, telling you just how good Esperanza Spalding is. Without this judgement from me, you wouldn't have the first idea that she is amazing, but since I am a musical authority, you now know. You're welcome.

US at our best. Elegant boys, beautiful girls dancing for joy in an elegant world. Best version EVER. Check out Oscar Brown, Jr from back in the day.

By the 1950s, Afro-Cuban music powered many jazz hits like this "Afro Blue" composed by the great Cuban percussionist Mongo Santamaría that became the first true jazz standard built on a 3:2 clave pattern. The music became increasingly mainstream, and eventually non-Cuban musicians ran with the form and continue 70y after.

5:38 the lick

Our hip hop cover Live. A simpler version. Just a bass, guitar, drums and vocals. ua-cam.com/video/KOpZ_0bPt9Q/v-deo.html

Music History all times...we love 💕 You Esperanza !!

She and her banda are so amazing!! Excelence in Jazz

My Gawd, Beautiful!

Never start a video of Esperanza Spalding if you have little time: once you start, you can't get enough

Dream of a land my soul is from I hear a hand stroke on a drum Shades of delight, cocoa hue Rich as a night, Afro blue Elegant boy, beautiful girl Dancing for joy, delicate whirl Shades of delight, cocoa hue Rich as a night, Afro blue Two young lovers are face to face With undulating grace They gently sway then slip away to some secluded place Shades of delight, cocoa hue Rich as a night, Afro blue Whispering trees echo their sighs Passionate pleas, tender replies Shades of delight, cocoa hue Rich as a night, Afro blue Lovers on flight, upward they glide Burst at the height, slowly subside Shades of delight, cocoa hue Rich as a night, Afro blue And my slumbering fantasy Assumes reality Until it seems it's not a dream, the two are you and me Shades of delight, cocoa hue Rich as a night, Afro blue

Gotta loooove this!

mono sound? (

así se hace.....! 👏🎛️♥️😎

Lindo lindo sonido

5:39

who is the bass guitarist?

Vraiment les fées ont dû se pencher sur son berceau pour la doter de tant de talents : un sens irréprochable du tempo, une voix qui vous emporte et une grâce qui confine à la perfection !

What can I say - that's a perfect rendition of Afro Blue. If you get the chance, check out our "German" version: ua-cam.com/video/7bYoMmRlxKQ/v-deo.html
