Chris Botti featuring Veronica Swift "Embraceable You"

[@leshirst2679]

this is probably the best rendition I've heard of this song in many, many years. The combination of Veronica Swift and Christ Botti is sheer brilliance. This young vocalist is well worth watching as her star rises.

[@acousticshadow4032]

Stellar rendition. Veronica has a range & depth rarely found in any vocalist. That blond kid on the horn is pretty good, too.

[@claudial.gonzalez4268]

Our Chris Botti …..a shining star…..❤

[@kaylisousa9464]

She can’t be real, protect her at all costs ❤

[@mmrobb73]

This is more than a nice song. This is one of the great moments in recent jazz history, featuring a vocal superstar and a superb trumpet player and his ensemble. Chris Botti's concerts are always incredible.

[@davekisor1486]

Her Lifetime Achievement Award will be quite a show. Damn shame I won't be around for it.

[@gabrielwickander]

4:38 The slide to her falsetto gives me goosebumps. The amount of control she has over the dynamics is incredible

[@kimberlysmith3810]

Yes!

[@tamb7587]

Just left Chris’s concert with Veronica and other guests OMG!!! Words do not describe how FANTASTIC this concert was!! Before going I thought it would be too much trumpet for me but no , the show was multi dimensional . Just FANTASTIC!

[@penelopelinton7261]

You must have been at show in Galveston like me ! She really blew me away! Yes the whole show was very diversified! Not all Botti who was so generous to his guest artists !!

Veronica has to be one of the greatest jazz vocalists ever!!!

Totally !!!

[@judyannkiwi]

U said it

[@golds04]

Were you paid to write that? Otherwise hard to really comprehend. Are you a musicologist that we are unaware of? Besides being a truly “ unique “ opinion- it might be a mild disservice to all the? Hundreds of truly brilliant singers who she seems to have assiduously and honorably studied and borrowed from. Nice rendition. Band supported her carefully with intention.

[@MeelaESQ]

That's a BIG statement.

[@manuelguariguata535]

Every year that passes on she gets better and better. Saw her first in 2018 at the Blue Note in NYC and her artistry has matured so much. God bless you, Veronica.

[@jspartacus]

Samara Joy and Veronica Swift prove that jazz is in good hands going forward. ❤

[@margarethakloots5287]

Veronica is fantastic, she reminds me of Ella. But Chris Botti is something else! A must video to listen to!

[@jstringer4900]

Not an easy song to sing. Absolutely flawless interpretation. Gorgeous.

[@patrickdemarcevol]

She's the best in town right now. I missed her when she sang in Marciac festival in South of France, tickets sold before I had a chance. The godd fairies Ella, Billie and Sarah watched over this beautiful soul

[@lornapowell2824]

What about my absolute favourite.... Anita Oday... to me, she's the quintessential jazz vocalist. That special voice with her unique interpretation of every song, that if I'd listened to her, with eyes closed, I would've thought, that a new instrument, had been invented, because of that voice, that fitted in so well, with the musicians. But.... that was THEN.... that era. This lovely young singer, is the new now.

[@lanceb.]

I hate the national sport of KZbin, “The Comparison Game”.

[@lanceb.]

Thank God we still have Jazz and wonderful musicians like Veronica and Chris.

[@judithkossen9020]

Now I have tot do my make-up all over again....in tears over this stunning performance by the new queen of jazz...Veronica Swift. Love you!

[@uzettem6964]

Don't ever wear makeup if you're watching her again. 😜🥳

[@louisphilippe5666]

As much as I adore Anita O'Day's swinging & witty interpretations of standards and am consistently blown away by the subtle soul of Lady Day, Veronica Swift is really something else! I actually feel Chris Botti did her a disservice by comparing her to them. Veronica's ear & command of her vocal gifts to deliver breathtaking unique performances of timeless lyrics & melodies is a marvel. Hope everyone here buys her latest album as of 2021, This Bitter Earth. I betcha you won't regret the purchase!

[@foodbackstories]

Actually we shouldn't be comparing. Unfair. All in their own particular class. This girl is good. But performance not short of shortcomings. Not much clarity on those higher notes. What do we do next? Compare her to Ella? Please no!

[@tomchojnowski9215]

Some people like Billie and Anita are song stylists , their voices have limitations but they find a way to create beauty . Ella and Dinah had chops. They could do everything!! Why are we comparing such great vocalists ?? Just listen to who you like to listen to. They are all great and we should be very grateful that we have a Veronica Swift and a Samara Joy to listen to in this day and age.

[@dianeorona4330]

Veronica's ability to hit the notes right in the middle is amazing!

[@zagalove]

Chris Botti est régulièrement accompagné de très belles femmes avec soit une belle voix soit un violon exceptionnel. Le duo est généralement magnifique.

[@rrksevilla]

Wow, first time I listened to her. She is amazing.

[@barbaralauren2743]

IT CAN'T GET BETTER THAN THIS...RARE SINGING AND RARE PLAYING!!!

[@2bouvmom]

effortless. the way these songs are meant to be sung.

[@PhatTrumpet2]

That was so legit! Can't believe I haven't heard of Veronica until now.

Veronica is a phenom. Saw her live once - what a treasure.

Now that is singing jazz! Love it! What a team. 💕💕💕💕💕💕💕Chris you are so good at what you do. The best!

[@juancarlosalmiron2055]

OHH VERONICA ! About 20 times i watched her performances ,and she perfected the voice to become another rainbow of tunes , mamma mia , ragazza , beautiful girl she puts the seal of what jazz is all about ! It is about time to bring Veronica on a complete concert surrounded by all the greatest that had invited her to their shows ! 100 times thank you Veronica , you are wonderful professional !

[@ellsrustia6329]

Beautiful rendition of a classic song, made even better by Botti’s excellent trumpet music.

[@gisellegonzalez2628]

What a voice, this is pure romance, jazz the way it’s supposed to be sung, and that trumpet sweet lord.

[@hrhqueene]

Veronica has a God-given talent she has worked hard to mature. Her voice & Chris B’s trumpet are together simply magical!
