This woman is a gemstone, reuniting elements from earth, processing and exploding back to society. Thanks for you art, Esperanza!

[@insidejazzguitar8112]

Since the start of Esperanza’s career, I’ve been crushed by the immense beauty of her voice and harmonic landscapes I never knew could exist. It literally makes me cry, and I’m not a crier. Her talent is unimaginable. This music is in its own category.

[@steaksauz]

You can sense that she genuinely wishes to heal the listener unconditionally through her music. Phenomenal record.

@@Gurci28 yeah, I'm aware. But I guess it hits different when you're able to hear it in the music.

[@mojo-media]

Esperanza is a gift to us all. We should never take her spirit for granted.

What have we done to deserve Esperanza Spalding? What an incredible gift.

Absolutely agreed!

[@TheLudema]

Oh Esperanza, you've cured me so many times with "12 little spells", and listening to "Junjo" i was able to let go and enjoy a nap for first time in years. Thanks for your music, though "thanks" is not enough.

The Gift Of Sound Is So Very Quietly Present

[@RickHenryChristopher]

This lady is a musical genius. Although she is not selling millions of records she will go down in history as one of the greats.

[@abdusluqman5367]

Pure genius. Nothing more. Music which communicates with the soul. The true meaning of soul food.

[@professortiagolicariao1362]

Esperanza é a fusão, é o amalgama de tudo, é a que comunica o Ser através da arte!

[@pablobruno1503]

I can't help to think about a huge Kate Bush influence in her Music....only Esperanza is I think gifted as only a select other group of musicians in the last quarter century....I once owned a Restaurant in the east of France, in the city of Mulhouse, where she played in 2013 with Lovano, Dejohnette and Leo Genovese [An Argentinian like me] as the Spring Quartet, so I jumped at the chance of contacting Leo to see if they would like to come over to have dinner a day prior to the concert....they came....and I went to pick 'em at the hotel in downtown....while I was in the lobby with all this monsters and their road manager minus her, suddenly she came down from her room gracing with her presence while descending through the stairs like and angel only could.....I swear to God that I fell in love instantly with her aura....a true star in the most soulful sense of the term....magnificent woman and musician....

[@kungfumusiclessons7579]

One of the truest and greatest artist alive.

[@RAsVault]

I first listened to the whole piece without the visual, and nodded off 3 times--but in the best, most surprisingly meditative way. I'd recommend it before watching the video. Great work as usual ES.

[@tranquilitybase6417]

I did too!

There's an everlasting note in this music, It will echo in my body and soul for a long time 🙏

[@Musiqwest]

There are a lot of Jazz Suites based on meditation and oeuvre and opus and so on. Just earlier this week it occurred to me how awesome a classical opera played out by jazz orchestration would sound, and now this! Just an idea. Keep it up Esperanza!!

[@nyjazzman]

I've been listening to Esperanza since 2008, and have been impressed by the innovative music she always comes out with. Always something new that generally defies categorization and sets her apart. This newest effort is no exception. Sounds wondrous, blending music and motion, and evokes positive feeling in these recent years of great stress. Great work and looking forward to hearing more!

[@blackdateline1996]

Yes. You said it perfectly she DEFIES categorization, every single time.

[@marianoesa]

[@eleanorzissou]

No offense. This is hardly a new genre.

[@TheBen4ever]

@@eleanorzissou oh really? Could you maybe tell me a few songs or artists who do the same?

[@babinm]

@@TheBen4ever Ornette Coleman, Miraslav Vituos, any number of progressive 20th century composers, but kudos to Esperanda for applying her musicality and musicianship to her passion rather than commerciality.
