ON THE SUNNY SIDE OF THE STREET - Bar Colombia, Sant Andreu, Joan Chamorro, Andrea Motis, Sept. 2019 

This is a picture of what life should be. People singing, laughing and enjoying music on a street corner. This should be everyday life. Well done.

As a musician, it brings tears to my eyes how the ensemble projected joy and happiness to their playing. Love the music from the 30s and 40s in which I grew up in, and nice to see the youngsters keeping the music from those eras alive and well!

There's somethin' about this version of this timeless wonderful song by this band that makes ya feel so damn good! So much talent! The sing-a-long is great! It's pure and simple! Love ya'll!

This is great. They’re all good, but trumpet girl in blue is particularly impressive. She has a good singing voice too.

What an amazing trumpet player! Such style and sound.

Marvelous. Makes me realize how much I want the world to return to it's old beautiful self where people can hangout and make magic.

I'm listening to this jam session on a lazy Saturday afternoon in Tokyo while drinking coffee. I hope the day will come soon when we walk on the sunny side of the street, without a face mask and worrying about anything. Take care and thank you all!!💕

Isn’t it just wonderful that young people play old songs, and so brilliantly, too. It was a pleasure to listen to you. I just wish I could be there in person to enjoy your music live. You Tube will have to do.

Wow, the trombone solo was just great. So much feeling and musicality, without need to show off or anything.

Heartwarming and uplifting on many levels Young people safeguarding this music, joy of just playing and listening. And the community spirit. Wonderful

This song has a special meaning for me and always brings memories of my childhood. I was born and raised in Yugoslavia. There was no TV programing yet in the country, so the only home entertainment besides books, newspapers and magazines was provided by a small radio. Radio dramas were popular, and one evening, one of those radio plays was on. The intro music was "On the Sunny Side of the Street". Since I was very interested in and receptive to music from my early years, I was immediately drawn to the sound and melody and somehow remember to this day this was the song played such a long time ago.

This is what live music supposed to be, bringing old and young people together

Ahh the good ol days when we could enjoy such music out in the sunny side of the street

I guess they plum forgot about the bridge ! : "I used to walk in the shade with the blues on parade. Now I'm not afraid. This rover, crossed over !"

This neighborhood is full of love n life of living . It’s so A happy place n I would not mind being a neighbor ☮️🎸🎸❤️🖖

Andrea Motis is very famous in Spain,she played and plays with most famius international musicians...but she never forget street jams.. i follow her since 12 years of age yet playing...

I know a lot of jazz musicians here in New York who have moved on to a whole different thing, but they must be looking at this and just saying “damn.” This is beautiful. As others here have said, the vocabulary and the tradition of American jazz is all here. But this has an extra element that we’ve been missing in America for some time: joy! Louis Armstrong would be wrapping his arms around these folks and kissing and hugging them tight. Somebody, I don’t know who, has to be the teacher/guru behind this. How do scenes like this emerge? Hard to believe this is just kind of happening by itself right now in Spain of all places. The playfulness, the happiness, the spirit. Just awesome. The little breakdown with the castanets that happens after the guitar solo, and the whole gang singing the lyric on the final chorus with their arms around each other. That tells you everything you need to know. These guys are on to something great, and they aren’t looking to the United States of America for permission or approval. Great video. Thank you for posting. It moved me.

これこそがyoutubeの醍醐味と思います。良い時間をありがとうございます。美味い酒を堪能させて頂きます。日本から愛をこめて。

Ah this is what life is about, peace and love. And any time you have peace and love and music it’s always a winning combination. These beautiful people just gave us a beautiful lesson on the best life has to offer.🎺🎸🎹🥁☮️❤️

Joan Chamorro, seen here playing double bass, now has his own website joanchamorro.com It has full details of all his official RU-vid videos, CD's, DVD's, concerts and much more.

That's the Dizzy Gillespie-Version. From the album "Sunny Side Up". Sonny Rollins played tenor saxophone. Wonderful rendition!

Every once in a while Google gets it right . Excellent

These great folks have done a whole lot of listening in addition to their dedication to the instrument! You're carrying the baton, young people. I hope that you're suitably rewarded.

7:00 Cameraman was distracted..

so beautiful! the music was amazing too. but seriously, it's awesome to see such talented jazz musicians still coming up. i mean i'm 28 but it feels like every generation moves a little more away from jazz as time goes on, it's good to see it's still alive and well. at a time when most popular music is made of 2 or 3 chords, and the bass line has 2 or 3 notes or some 5ths thrown in at most, it's good to see the appreciation and dedication for this kind of music still goes on.

Dizzy is smiling on a cloud somewhere.

The horns are so beautiful and gracious. And Chamorro deserves a statue.

So much talent in these young people. The future looks a lot brighter just by listening to them playing.

Man, that trumpet player can play! This was a world class performance out front of the bar one day. Amazing.

1 billion likes for this performance

This music was popular before my generation, but I dearly wish it would come back again.

It's so refreshing to see young people playing and developing a real appreciation of jazz. And Andrea sure knows how to improvise.

This arrangement comes from one of the greatest jazz records ever recorded. Dizzy Gillespie Sonny Rollins and Sonny Stitt "Sunny Side Up" which also features The Eternal Triangle on Verve. The young woman on trumpet qoutes Sonny Rollins solo perfectly. They are paying homage with great respect to the geniuses who created this music. There is hope for us all as long as young players like this continue to keep American Classical Music alive. 🎶🎷😎

Who are these legends? Thank you for sharing. This is what days should be like. Work in the mornings. Get together with friends and make beautiful music in the evenings. We have got it all wrong.

I love to see their communications during the song. Great performance by all the band members!

I love that, that girl on trumpet has a beautiful tone,same with the girl on trombone, the girl on guitar is ausom, the guy on tenor sax is talented, the guy that played the guitar solo is talented, also the guy keeping the time is talented, I played trumpet in highschool and still play, the girls playing this have nowledge in music theory, also there tone's are spot on, beautiful,🙂.......

I want a bass player like this, instead of a regular bass fill he just yells "oh ya ya ya"

Dr. Joan Chamorro is an international living treasure because he not only brings us great music, but he inspires, teaches, and personally joins many talented young people to learn it, preserve it, and perform it at the highest levels of skill. He is a true father of our past and future music!

Jazz is forever!

The Dizzy and Sonny Stitt version. Simplamente estupendo.

Beautiful! Loved it. Everyone was great, but I want to give a shout out to the young girl playing rhythm guitar. Backup players never seem to get the respect they deserve. She's solid as a rock.

I'm a jazz fan, and I'm very impressed. I hope our lives will get back just like this!

These are musicians, unlike so many that are making millions just being fad foolish.

Made me smile, tap my feet, snap my fingers and transported me to your happy place. Fabulous and thanks for sharing it with us. ❤️

This is the Mediterranean life. Us cold northerners don’t get it. Music on the street is common, flamenco , jazz etc. It’s the climate/food/attitude etc

Muy linda muestra de arte popular, fresco y de alta calidad. Felicitaciones a los intérpretes y que suerte los que pudieron disfrutarlo en vivo!!

What a polished little group assembled here. The jazz flows endlessly. Each soloist is a joy. Spanish jazz is in good hands!! Thanks for posting!

Andrea Motis, Graciosissima, inteligente, grande musicista, uma imagem singular quase unica e sensualissima, acompanhada de músicos de uma grandeza e tanto! Que felicidade!!!!

I love how many women there are in this jazz goodness.

Fico muito feliz de ver essa juventude curtindo um jazz da pesada.Muito bom.Parabéns a todos .

A real ''Sunny Side Of The Street''😂😂

everyone is swinging here and we, as well, are doing so - more than 300000 viewers so far did it - WOW , this is really AMAZING

こんなに素晴らしい路上パフォーマンスは、もしかしたら日本でも聴けるかもしれないけど、少なくても僕は観たことがない。 素晴らしい。I am very impressed to your lovely performance!

gyaaaat

I live halfway across the world and I cannot understand why I had tears of joy after hearing this!

interesting they studied Dizzy's version

Andrea she's fantastic young girl.

Dizzy Gillespie, Sonny Stitt, and Sonny Rollins brilliant arrangement, and even parts of Gillespie's solo Nice work!!!!

Just let the girls run with it and everything will be wonderful! So glad to be on this Earth with them.

Felicidades maestro Chamorro y sus brillantes alumnos 🎶🎵

Jazz and Chorinho. All I need to be happy.

Uuuuuu increible supermusicos la muñequita trompeta la otra presiosa. Trombon maravillosa toda la orquesta los amo desde california.

When that lady went from taking a photo to recording a video and didn’t turn her phone sideways I said “NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! PLEASE GOD NOOOOOOO!”

いやはや久々に1000回見ても飽きない演奏ですね！ 本当に楽しくクール、谷啓が一回り大きくなって生まれ変わったようなトロンボーンとか、Andreaの素敵なワンピースとおよそ色気のないペッタンコ靴とか、すべてが愉快で楽しい。あと2000回見ます！

Great group of musicians! Especially Andrea Motis!

If this doesn’t put a smile on your face, I don’t know what will! Nice playing by all!

Absolutely Breathtaking ....... After watching this ..... Please take a few minutes to “Pray” for the 232 who could not appreciate the beauty of this wonderful performance

Joyfull music like this is an antidote to the times we live in. The trumpet player is quite good .

That's what we really call music indeed. Congratulations. From Brazil.

Crazy to think we won't be back to living like this for a very long time.

My kind of people. My kind of music. Fantastic. Isto é fantástico.

They surely made “that side of the street” a lot sunnier that day!!! 😉 what a joy to watch so many talented young people actually enjoying good quality music these days and having a great time together playing jazz!!! There’s hope, folks!

たまたまRU-vidお薦めででてきた曲も演奏者も知らない初見なのですが、（これぞプロといった緊迫感のある演奏ももちろんいいですが）少しユルイ感じの演奏がステキです 観客もJazzが好きなんだなということが伝わってホンワカしました :-)

I really like this kind of free style Jazz performance. When Covid-19 is over, I definitely want to visit this jazz club. After buying a flight ticket to Barcelona...

Congratulations always for this wonderful working dear professor!!! I admire a lot what you and your students are doing for keeping Jazz alive in his best and pure elements. Modern Jazz is wonderful too, but the tradition is like an old wine... each time more tasteful! A senior jazzmen from Sao Paulo, Brasil, maestro Roberto Sion. Post Scriptum - ... you just were in the right and sunny side of the street!!!

So much fun! I wish I could have been there.

That was pretty damn awesome! That trumpet player has some chops!

I love this so much I can't even put it into words how beautiful this is, the vibes and the feelings I get from this is just unexplainable and so amazing. This will forever be my favorite video of a live performance. God bless everyone in this video ❤️ you are ALL amazing and wonderful. :)

So beautiful on so many levels! Big thanks to all of you and I wish you all the best! ♥

Sensacional, muito legal, muito descontraído... assim que faz música de verdade. Música é vida...

Brilliant! Not seen this camera angle before. The audio is very good as well. Nice to see the usual suspects plus Anastasia too, who is one very talented player.

One more reason to go to Barcelona!

Beautiful all of these artists brought joy to everyone listening,bravo

Been to Paris, spoke French. Went to Guatemala, spoke a specie of Spanish. In New Orleans I heard music.

Long time since I've heard jazz like this. Thank you.

They all are amazing... But my favorite is the trombone girl!

Beautiful rendition I love this so much! Music is love eternally traveling through our souls.

Love Barcelona. Very enjoyable and talented jazz.

Great seeing such young people playing great stuff. Here's to sunny afternoons.

Creo que la mitad de las visitas que tiene este video son mías, no paro de escucharlo

I love it! Its so wonderful. I desperately hope for better times when I can tavel again and maybe get the chance to see and hear you all ...

What a very amazing and a very wonderful group...how I wish I can join your wonderful members personally ? I joined the FEATI UNIVERSITY BAND during my school years in the Philippines...At night I played with the TASING LINGASIN ORCHESTRA for an extra money for my expenses/rents...I am always at the DEWAVE BLVD, MANILA,PHIL until I finished my schooling... JOHN COLTRANE is a very famous name/group in the Philippines up this date...🙋🙋🙋😀😀😀

absolutely fantastic .. the whole thing is great!!

Just beautiful. How sweet if the composer could hear this, 80 or 100 or however many years later.

That's exactly what Jazz is all about, beautiful, I wish we have more such moments, you made my day!
