Stolen Moments - Hubert Laws feat. Elena Pinderhughes

[@georgecurington8156]

THANK GOD he is teaching others how to play jazz

[@youthjazz]

Hubert Laws at age 80 is still the gold standard and template for post-bop modern jazz flute.

[@PepperWilliams_songcovers]

Hubert Laws has always been my #1 flutist in jazz. His playing has always been so fluid, perfect lines and melodies! His body of works speaks for itself. And this young lady is plain and simply fantastic. What a great solo! She's definitely in 'good hands' with the Master, Hubert Laws.

[@379val]

I cannot play at the angle he is playing. His sound has always been amazing. This duet is magic❤

[@redinhodaflauta1269]

I think Elena P. is THE GREATEST THING TO HAPPEN TO JAZZ FLUTE IN MORE THAN A DECADE! Phrasing, content, sound, she SWINGS - everything! And this performance is already nearly 7 years ago... I know she's been working The Village Vanguard with Kenny Barron... She's truly a young MASTER - master "of the idiom"!

[@tomschnabel6146]

Hubert is always amazing and I'm praying that Elena will get a record deal and put out a record. She is just fantastic!!!!!

[@rons3486]

My favorite flutist of yesterday and my favorite flutist of today! Awesome!

[@jorgemartin5093]

If you study flute on a conservatory....they never teached you how to make the notes fall a bit with that jazzy style. I learnt doing this by myself practicing a lot....listening a lot and just let your vibes flow... i play with an extraordinary good clean and powerful tone but i can make my flute sound dirty....

[@imme.7106]

Yes! ... Hebrew laws has always been my inspiration and to this day he's still a beacon!. He totally shaped the influence everything I ever did on the flute. Check out his Alto solo from minute 3:30 to 5:40. There's the standard for the alto flute. I always admired that the "swing" came from his fingers, and not from his body!.

[@denmusiclover8631]

I don't why I have never heard of Elena before today! My gosh, what a super talent! My fav was always Dave Valentin (RIP) but I think she is my new fave!!! As a fellow flautist, I am in awe of her natural abilities as a flautist and vocalist!

[@Zxx459]

There is NO COMPARISON BTW DAVE ...SHE US GOOD BUT HAS NO EXPERIENCE ( SCHOOL ,HOMOGENIZED

[@rayarmstrong2345]

She's a musician genius! And absolutely gorgeous!

[@krishnagurung5434]

Hubert Law, living legend of enchanting music inspiring younger generation of flutists world wide.Thanks for posting it.

[@mikecoz3d]

2 of the best!

[@numbsain]

Elena is amazing! Her rhythm and melodic/ harmonic concepts are impeccable.

[@percyvolnar8010]

I saw this video at the beginning of my flute journey and thought she was fantastic. ( years later, I watched this again and realized something: Her flute identifies as a Trumpet. Hubert's flute identifies as a classical flute with urban instincts. I get it, now.... I can hear it now.

[@brookechanelco.1035]

wow! i simply love Hubert Laws and the Laws family. This is amazing to see Elena Pinderhughes play with Hubert Laws especially after I was introduce to her music through Christian Scott.

[@DiamondCrushIvory]

Me too...found this splendid flutist via My Favorite artist Christian Scott💃🏿💃🏿💃🏿

[@MrAndygayle]

brilliant.beautiful....

[@TheAnnaFisher]

Phenomenal, none better! Love this, thank you so much!

[@bohindramusic]

Me alegro de ser el primero en escribir sobre esta fantastica flautista que lleva el estilo del gran maestro Hubert Laws. mi sincera enhorabuena !

[@YoungMusiciansChoralOrchestra]

Gracias por el apoyo!

[@saxyricks4731]

I love the flute sound, especially in the low register. The alto flute is so rich also. Hubert Laws is the Master.

[@jenniferlee5871]

I agree that the low register sound is rich, I’m just learning flute and the high notes are stressful for me. That’s partly because I’m not fluid or able to get the high notes. But sound wise lower register is calming. I hope to learn more.

[@TM-xp7hd]

I think I'm in love with Elena ... and Hubert :( ..... I haven't been this motivated to transcribe in a long time

[@hughwilson]

This is wonderful.

[@murraybecker6827]

The Great One and a Very Good Student

[@rogeriol409]

Soy admirador del maestro Laws. Felicidades a todos los flautistas.

[@ronaldthomas74]

I love the alto flute! !!!!

[@marieannecelticwoman3466]

Wow! My jazz idol!

[@mizpahboy7513]

One day a old man was walking with his granddaughter when the little girl spotted some butterflies. Fill with excitement the little cried "Look grandfather, let's run down and catch one" The old smiled down at the child and said "No child, we will walk down and get them all. "Stolen Moments" a very nice track to walk down and catch.

[@unkysonny]

+mizpahboy That's not how the story goes; it involves a pair of bulls, a bunch of cows, and.... well you can figure out the rest. Although what the #@&! this has to do with this video is beyond my comprehension.

[@chosesomething]

mizpahboy Well said. Describes what happens quite well. Haha

[@paulienebz]

Wow, a new queen!

[@YoungMusiciansChoralOrchestra]

Simplesmente maravilhoso !!!! Inspirador !!!!

[@danielirilarry]

Muy pero muy buenooooo!!!

[@stanbryant1299]

The Laws Dynasty of course!!! Elena is in very capable company!!!

[@grumpycroissant8712]

OMG I always practice with Stolen Moments (8va) as beginner, because there are so many problems can be tackled in a single song -moving from high D/D# to C (double tonguing). Teach me how to stabilise my flute -cracking high F# -cracking mid E. I figured out, focusing on getting good mid E really improved my embochure, and teach me to relax my body -I added flutter, vibrato, trills, polyphonic effect with singing, here and there. -and the best part, I learned how to improvise with this song :D I am self taught (I have asperger. To me, self teaching is lot more reliable than hiring teachers. Conventional teaching doesn't fit my method when it comes to learning lmao)

[@DeltaRana4]

Accomplished jazz player Elena. Let's also hear it for Geechi Taylor.

[@wyndhleodumegwu253]

Elena with her mentor, inspiration and influence, HuLaws. Bobby Ramirez, Jose Valentino... great new breed of flautistic opulence...

[@wyndhleodumegwu253]

Kent Jordan and Gerald Beckett... closest to HuLaws, not forgetting Dave Valentine...

[@DVDKC]

Plz Bobby Ramirez is a total amateur in comparaison with Hubert Laws, even he may be a cool guy.

[@wyndhleodumegwu253]

Do-Khac-Cau Dang-Vu: Bobby is a new breed of young flautists - not to be compared to Hubert Laws. In Jazz, Hubert may be compared to Joe Farrell, Eddie Daniels, Tubby Hayes, Moe Koffman, Bobby Jaspar, Phil Bodner, Eric Dolphy, Mauricio Smith .... and Herbie Mann [genre eclectic] - his contemporaries. Frank Wess, Eric Dixon, Jerome Richardson, Harold Vick, Sam Most, Bud Shank ... before Hubert Laws. They were great. Check out: Ali Ryerson, Andrea Feldbach, Ms. Huffman, Lori Lacy, Althea Renee, Kim Scott, Ragan Whiteside, Shelly Winston, Paula Altherton...not for comparison. The ladies are virtuosic maestras, many of whom have been classically trained before embarking on an Organic Real Jazz cruise of magical brilliance. Also, visit Nelson Rangell and James Carter (on flute) No comparison is intended; Just listen and appreciate - or, not.

[@wyndhleodumegwu253]

Do-Khac-Cau Dang-Vu

[@Pedraga]

For me, there's Dolphy, and then a lot of amazing, incredible musicians..

[@timedriverable]
