These shows have been the best for getting exposure to such a broad range of extremely talented musicians. Week after week I am completely blown away by these. Jazz is alive and in good hands.

[@fideliusconcrete4871]

You wrote exactly what I'm thinking. Always so interesting what new people Emmet is bringing along.

[@Oudiematic3000]

Fantastic set. Special credit to Tatum's socks

[@DLee1100s]

Can I just point out how amazing Alexa's tone is.

*Swingin’ Synchrony - Alexa Tarantino & Tatum Greenblatt* 🎷🎼🌃🎺🍸 0:00 Introduction of the Band 2:01 Unit 7 - (Cannon’s Theme) (Sam Jones) 16:58 Ceora (Lee Morgan) 27:23 Alone Together (Arthur Schwartz; lyr. Howard Dietz) 43:24 Peace (Horace Silver) - ft.

Alexa Tarantino, alto sax 1:32:57 I Remember You (V. Schertzinger; lyr. Johnny Mercer) (*Jason Brown, guest drummer - Chi Chi; I Hear a Rhapsody) *Alexa Tarantino & Tatum Greenblatt* play with a *clarity, freedom, & laid-back effervescence* that affirms one of life’s little secrets: -To swing purposefully, without taking life (or ourselves) too seriously. *Together, their alto sax & trumpet produce gorgeous resonance that not only fills a space…but gives space to a moment.* We dig their delivery of *clean melodic lines - that are technically superb, yet never compromise the ‘cool.’* The *synchrony* of Alexa’s masterful alto & Tatum’s sophisticated horn is *strengthened by the energy that Emmet, Russell, & Kyle create each week.* The living room stage is open to those who dare hang and, *premier drummer, Jason Brown,* (visiting from the UK) rolled through, at the ready. Kyle graciously shared space with his brother & it’s true that *each one of these cats are there to serve the music….no egos to be found.* *Always in sync.* Making music & making space. *Alexa Tarantino, Tatum Greenblatt, Emmet Cohen, Russell Hall, Kyle Poole (& Jason Brown): Thanks for this exceptional performance…* We love you, all. ❤

Beautifully said!

[@charlesperforms]

I think the time stamps are messed up because the first trio tune is cut

[@Meira_A]

I appreciate you, deeply, jazz family….it takes a village & should be fixed, now. 🎼💌 - Blues for Nita was not included from the original cut.

[@stevie2673]

Drinking challenge: Take a shot every time Emmet plays the lick

[@leemorgan5789]

Awesome set!! As an alto player definitely inspired by Alexa here. Dig the outside and subdued playing

[@sumeursault]

Thanks for reposting with fixed audio/video sync!

[@Matraka2000]

These shows will be classic someday…they are amazing ,thanks.

[@alansenzaki4148]

Love the whole set especially the song ceora.

[@jimsisko1]

Sounding great Tatum!!!

[@velvetimpulse]

Amazing! Thanks for fixing this guys. Alexa is one of my main inspirations on Alto these days. I'll be rewatching this multiple times like I did with Vincent Herring for sure

[@peterschneider2120]

Thanks!

[@nevetsw2004]

Emmet, Your place is the best.

[@doughouseworth234]

Thank you! Thank you! THANK YOU!

[@trumpetrumept]

Tatum sounds GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD!!!!!

[@duffydillinger1961]

Im thrilled that Emmet's Place brings great female talents to the floor and shows their masterful handling of timeless compositions.

[@jimbrown1559]

If any of us old farts has even the slightest doubt about the future of the music, this set should set our minds at ease. Tatum is spectacular on the Lee Morgan's masterpiece, Ceora, Alexa and the rhythm section are killing throughout, and Jason is energizing! All of you have brightened my life! And have you been paying attention to what Jon Batiste does five nights a week on network TV? Bud, Monk, Bird, Chick, all the greats, are regularly heard.

[@francois9144]

Fantastique rendez-vous de jazz, avec des artistes merveilleux ! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 Thank you so much, you're wonderful. 👍👏👏👏😀

[@ChipTheMusicMan]

Excellent set! Suggestions - I’d like to see 1) Bob Mintzer 2) Jim Snidero 3) Miguel Zenón and 4) Bob Reynolds and 5) Alex Hahn on Emmet’s Place!

[@bobblues1158]

Great idea!

[@JJ_Photo]

Love that classic sound Alexa and Tatum has together! And finally an alto player with dark husky sound ;) Always found them so hysterical compared to tenor... Damn, I need that mouthpiece she has, for my alto...

[@hincapiej4]

It's not the mouthpiece as much as how she shapes her embrochure. I play a ceramic mouthpiece and have a much darker sound then she does :)

[@brianshotton4236]

Many thanks for fixing sync.This is without doubt my musical highlight of the week.Long may it continue.

[@ronaldunkel2681]

Very nice to see hear these great classic renditions (with a personal twist) from the best jazz years (50/60’s). Excellent/exciting bunch of dedicated young jazz artists. Kudus gal/guys.

[@fideliusconcrete4871]

What a joy - so great how easy things can sound when really good musicians play them! Thanks for that great concert.

[@waldemarruhl8807]

DANKESCHÖN! Fantastisch und Klang ist völlig Naturell.!!!!

[@ospiratadocaribe]

BEAUTIFULL SOUND SIGNORINA TARANTINO!

[@adrianmoses3420]

Outstanding set

[@peterdegroff7318]

Definitely one of the best things i've heard recently. Everybody is 'spot on'!

[@stephenseidner7884]

Love it.

Amazing! Thanks for sharing!

[@alandakerharley]

Oh! What a treat this is. The smiles say it all. Sweet 😍

[@javiermadavi9258]

Fantástico!

[@theresarossouw1637]

Just love it when the guys dress up in suits 💕

[@danielmoussier6468]

Très joli son au saxophone alto !!!! Magnifique

[@santiagogomez5096]

Muy buenos músicos! Gracias!

[@accordiontranscribing625]

Emmet is BEST

[@rhythmculturerecords1017]

Wow Alexa ! 👏👏👏

[@Renaya2000]

Thanks for the love, friendship and great music. I'd love to jam with all of you one day ! Good day from Quebec city !

[@pauloluisdemoraespereirape9484]

Top!!!

[@erikscamander3595]

Such a great moment of energy, starting at 32:15 and leading to that awesome takeover by Tatum! Killing! 🔥

[@mgmmgm1599]

❤♥♥

[@ianwray5341]

Fantastic Alexa. Emotional and powerful with great deep tone and you've listened to them all and absorbed it: Trane, Shorter, Cannonball, Stitt, Kirk, Parker, Dolphy and thank God for Emmets Place introducing me to these new stars. Loved it when you hit the wrong note and then repeated it more forcefully. 'Course that was deliberate playing outside. But next time I do that accidentally I'll try it. The trumpeter is pretty fine too. Come to UK soon guys!!

[@mcniestro96]

I'd like to see spanish musicians with Emmet. Suggestions: Perico Sambeat, Ernesto Aurignac, Javier Vercher, Enrique Oliver, David Pastor, Voro García.

[@thomasschweri9788]

Cool!! Greetings from Switzerland (coverd by snow 😄)! Thomas

[@CharlieHoliday369]

Dig the slightly gravely tone on the Alto!Love what she does rhythm wise as well.Several Parker licks placed into Chi Chi would have hit the spot but you can’t have it all!

[@newyorkfilharmonik110]

:Love the four screens! ~~15:30 (I'm always working on a spreadsheet, so if it happened before that, I missed it).

[@thomasarneson4511]

Great to hear some live jazz again. Love Peace and Ceora. More Lee Morgan please. How about Theme for Stacy. Also La Mesha would be nice. So many more. Keep it up.

[@michelescacco9335]

Tatum Grea Grea Great!!!

[@VGMCollective]

Yeah baby

[@trookool8411]

Great music ! But, with the headphones, it seems that the trumpet sounds out the sax and the sax (right ear) out of the trumpet (left ear), it's weird.

[@diegocanadagutierrez580]

9:34

[@LenardonNahuel]

Yeah, came to comment the same! WTF

[@afxmnstr]

Alex : Right on ? Tatum : Uh hu....... uh, uh, uh uh uh uh .... *Boom*

[@FinnbarrGoesFast]

5:09 Emmet hecc that was tasty

[@roberthelms1737]

Old Folks is just beautiful.

[@michaelsilver8527]

Greenblatt looks like the second coming of Al Cohen.

[@straycat35]
