Emmet Cohen w/ Mar Vilaseca | Chega de Saudade (No More Blues)

[@thomasowen2585]

The most pretty scat singing I’ve ever heard all with a contagious smile.

[@yalta5060]

It is Portuguese

[@jeffreycraven8154]

Mar's is a fox, and man can she sing! One of the prettiest smiles I've ever seen. A beautiful smile.

[@MangroveLord]

Scat is not a language ​@@yalta5060

This ain’t scat singing

She got the perfect voice for Jobim! She sounds like a vintage flugelhorn. Brilliant!

[@manuelguariguata535]

That bass solo...what a killer! Rusell Hall is genius.

[@pedrod.7576]

He's a great bass player, but unfortunately the instrument doesn't lend itself that well to soloing in my humble opinion.

[@hombrequemiralaluna]

I love this girl. She's the daughter of an important Spanish jazz musician and educator (Jaume Vilaseca) and it shows. She has great technique and great knowledge of the classics. Wonderful musicianship too, she composes and plays the piano. We'll hear much more of her for sure.

[@SergeNevsky]

Thanks for the context. She sings so naturally. Early musical upbringing must have helped that develop.

[@MiguelMartinez-hz7yq]

@yoyo olivarez Vilaseca is from barcelona

[@diditpradipto9814]

Thanks for your info. Indeed she has a good singing and breathing (while singing) technique. Doesn't look like she's out of breath.... although this is a difficult song!

[@nerenahd]

I'm Brazilian, her accent (though noticeable) is very good for a foreigner.

[@FrictionFive]

Mr. Silberstein, the guitarist, delivers an astounding array of musical quotes. The "Without a Song" quote at the beginning of the C part is so clever, it made me laugh out loud. There are several other quotes I recognized but couldn't quite catch, all of them woven seamlessly into a spectacular solo. Wow.

[@oskarfield8696]

And he also quoted Mr PC as well just before he quoted Without a song..

[@FrictionFive]

@@oskarfield8696 Yes!!! Nice catch!

[@thomasgrady3103]

Along with the entire horn break in the Jobim version of this song!

[@FrictionFive]

@@thomasgrady3103 Ah! You're right! Damn, this is a well-studied musician.

[@joeblakeukeman]

That is muchly delicious guitar playing there! Bar 7 of the C part, reprise of the vocal, a sparkling diminished run. Ah! And the scatting! :)❤

[@richardxu8865]

Mar’s voice was angelic on this one. And I loved the guitar solo and piano stylings from emmet. Listening to this felt like a religious experience!

[@naj_z]

What the hell man. The bass player is out of this world! One of the very best today for sure and I didnt even know him before this.

[@nathandrakeison]

That bass solo! Awesome as always you all sounded extra amazing on this tune

[@tpledger100]

best bass player around today

[@mosheacimanbehar7535]

Mar Vilaseca is a really great singer, and Emmet Cohen never makes mistakes when choosing his recording partners.

[@dotmarker]

The human voice is of course a continuous pitch instrument, like a theremin. Mar Vilaseca can turn it at will into a near discrete pitch instrument, like a piano, as she does in the intro. Fabulous intonation and bell-like articulation.

[@TheSpiralnotebook]

the guitarist is so excellent and interesting and a "without a song " quote

[@FrictionFive]

Word!

[@nelsonsimas7028]

Yes!

[@aquamarina1183]

Best rendition of Chega de Saudade ever!

[@genehowell5197]

It is a great one for sure but go check out Gary Burton’s version. It’s by instrumental, but it may be my favorite.

[@markwilson9935]

these people ooze intelligent musicality and swag...a real treat...no ego..just pure listening to each other!!

[@Echo_123]

Wow her voice is so on pitch! It’s amazing!

[@ArthurMorrrison1000]

What a great song that is.

[@alicemc8774]

Yotam gets it. He's right on target with that solo.

[@roburjean]

Citation Without a song is amazing ❤

[@josepbatallerumbert6148]

I had the pleasure to know Mar when she was begining her musical career and she was already a very talented singer. However, I would have never expected to see her come this far in so little time. My best congratulations for her!!! Enhorabona, Mar!!!

[@blue47er]

If I'm ever feeling low then I am often inclined to tune in to Emmet Cohen's jazz where, within a few minutes I'm restored to a mellow and relaxed state. This session is a fine example of restorative, healing music on the first order. My thanks.

[@johnjung7337]

1:59 Without a Song! Emmet always brings a perfect combination of musicians and feel. Mar’s voice and scat was so on point for this!

[@nemo227]

Wonderful. This group lets music do what it was designed to do: make people happy, make people move with joy, make people feel good.

[@daniellu8662]

Man I'm completely in love with bossa nova!

[@Paloloeq]

And I totally agree 👍

[@neerajsharma3247]

Mar Vilaseca; Yotam Silberstein; Emmet Cohen; Russell Hall; Winard Harper - you are all beautiful - how wonderfffful!

[@hectorwebster-bligh5283]

Does Hall have perfect pitch? Or just incredible relative. It is so beyond impressive that he's singing out his bass solo, and nailing every pitch including all the jumps and fast runs.

[@euronymous6450]

I think it's called audiation

[@pureld]

All great improvisers have some sort of ability to sing along to their solos because eventually what they are playing on their instrument they are hearing inside their head first, or at the same time.

[@TheNickzer]

He does have perfect pitch. They mentioned it during on of their interviews.

[@tressel2489]

he and emmet both

[@Maou3]

He does have perfect pitch but him singing along with his solo isn't really evidence. I'm not really sure if it's a bassist thing because I'm not a bassist, but a lot of bassists I've seen sing/scat along with their solos, including the guy in my collegiate jazz ensemble (we are terrible) and I know he doesn't have perfect pitch. I think it's kinda just an improv thing in that soloists know what they're going to play as they play it. If my lips weren't busy playing (trumpet) I think I could probably hum along with my improv.

[@arentakaishi710]

The momemnt i heard her tone, i immediately clicked the like button. She was just so mesmerizing. These musicians as well are amazing in their own way. I wish I could someday play like these guys.

[@Ricardius-QC6]

Meu coração brasileiro ficou tão feliz enquanto ouvia isso

[@marcioalmeida2421]

[@tomchojnowski9215]

Wow that’s not an easy chart and they just eat it up like it was nothing These are a special group of musicians We are so lucky to be able to listen to them. Vilaseca is perfect fit for this group .It takes a special talent to hang with this group and she is absolutely perfection. These musicians are the best of the best in the world.

[@angus7278]

Agreed. It really is one of the most difficult songs to commit to memory and play, but sounds beautifully simple, and that’s why it’s so great.

[@ПетяРостов-б2ъ]

Her soft cute but really jazzy voice sounds great.

[@rsjmd]

I just discovered Emmet and "his friends" tonight...I'm blown away by the talent he has found with which to perform. Great music. Mazel tov. Thanks for keeping "real" jazz alive.

[@2634banana]

I love this girl. Her voice is sooooo smooth!!!

[@diditpradipto9814]

Indeed bro.

[@neerajsharma3247]

Russell Hall - astounding! wow! - I can't get over this piece; it is just riveting. Thanks.

[@neerajsharma3247]

Yotam Silberstein - Guitar; rhythmically and melodically brilliant, and, swinging with such a groove; and, uplifting; wow! thanks. Best wishes to all.

[@neerajsharma3247]

Emmet - stunning! such an uplifting piece; and, the way you provide a pivot for the togetherness for the whole session, which, is the same for all of the sessions, which, is astoundingly brilliant -wow!

[@jonassharma1]

And the pianist... Emmet Cohen! Incredible! Excellent jamming, guys! Cheers!

[@bluemonk9480]

rhythm at 1:02 gave me goosebumps also el lick a las 3:03

[@FrictionFive]

The rhythm at 1:02 is, I believe, a form of Partido Alto. I've heard a lot of cats play this same rhythm at this same part of the song (the "D Section" if we call the form ABCD). I don't know what the historical precedent is (i.e., who did it first), but it's not part of the original J. Gilberto nor Jobim recordings of this song. Many times it's hinted at, such as in Eliane Elias' versions, but not played as clearly as it is here.

[@bluemonk9480]

@@FrictionFive Oh, interesting! I had no idea it had become somethnig common

[@FrictionFive]

@@bluemonk9480 Yep, it's definitely "a thing" these days!

[@uberjazzygman]

This is a great rendition of a classic tune by the whole group. Very enjoyable! The guitar solo is so good, in part, because it quotes the first 16 bars of Eliane Elias' solo on her 2008 Bossa Nova Stories album. Who better to quote than her!

[@jeffreycraven8154]

Wish Diz had lived to hear this version. RIP DIz.

[@kfshortall]

actually, Eliane Elias quoted the original solo from Tom Jobim, so the guitar solo could more rightly be said to be quoting the original recording by Jobim!

[@thomazbiso]

Uauu!! Que linda voz!! Parabéns!! Sou Brasileiro e adorei a sua versão da clássica canção Chega de Saudade! Uauu!! Beautiful voice!! Congratulations! 😍 I’m Brazilian and I loved your version of classic Brazilian’s song “Chega de Saudade”.

[@ComradeStiv]

Eternal gratitude to Tom and Vinicius for gifting this adventurous inventive masterpiece to us 67 years ago. Few ensembles have styled it such deft, love, spirit, and joyful abandon. Stunning ✨

[@neerajsharma3247]

Yotam Silberstein - I love the way you come-in; wow! I am hooked on this peice; and, your riff's which, emanate sense of the groove; stunning! The whole piece - brilliant!

[@clarklovell5885]

3:30 is such a cool, beautiful, organic musical moment! Drums set up this interplay between the piano and rest of the section! So good!!
