International Jazz Day April 30, 2013 in Istanbul, Turkey "Travessia" Milton Nascimento - vocals, guitar Esperanza Spalding - bass Wayne Shorter - saxophone Herbie Hancock - piano
Leave Milton and guitar on stage, the performance alone is worth a million diamonds of 100 carat each !! What a fierce vocalist, instrumentalist, composer, writer & musician !! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Agree that it is beautiful, but IMHO, I think your criticism is a touch harsh. I myself thought they were, for the most part, tasteful and restrained. As they build in the latter half, everyone jacks it up a notch, including Esperanza. I thought they were all respectful of the vocalist while adding a layer of complexity.
They were each in their own world. Milton' songs are so beautiful that often you can't resist adding more than it needs to. In a different setting, where you would have a drummer and no vocal+guitar singing the melody straightforward then there is room for all kinds of fireworks and exchanges. If you listen to Milton's recordings you understand the balance I am referring to. I know my criticism is uninvited. As I listen to this video again it doesn't bother me. They are inspiring sources and can do whatever they want, yet I assure you they would not approve this "take" on an album.
I agree. They should have started with a very minimal arrangement and then go into solos later. Also a bit of percussion would have helped to keep the instruments a bit more together feeling-wise.
The other musicians don't understand how self-contained Brazilian music can be ... hard to improvise over ... it can often be resistant to jazz improv ....
@@11acjr I listened to it many times, astonished by how bad it was (and Wayne Shorter is probably my all time favorite composer and the greatest living musician, Milton is one of my favorite singers and Hancock one of my favorite pianists). Sorry, I think it's just terrible
Coisa linda!!!!! O triste é vêr que tem fãs de funk e pablo vitar vindo aqui dar deslike,vcs nunca terão sensibilidade pra entender este tipo de som,é algo divino totalmente longe do submundo que vcs vivem!!!!!
generalizou legal aí, eu particularmente n gostei, mas tbm n vou dar deslike pq é só uma opinião minha, as pessoas tem gostos diferentes e isso é normal ué
HH way overplayed destroyed the simplicity of this beautiful song drowned out Milton listen to the original for comparison [Verse 1] I have crossed a thousand bridges In my search for something real There are great suspension bridges Made like spider webs of steel There are tiny wooden trestles And there are bridges made of stone I have always been a stranger And I've always been alone [Chorus] There's a bridge to tomorrow There's a bridge from the past There's a bridge made of sorrow That I pray will not last There's a bridge made of colors In the sky high above And I think that there must be Bridges made out of love [Verso 2] Vou seguindo pela vida Me esquecendo de você Eu não quero mais a morte Tenho muito que viver Vou querer amar de novo E se não der não vou sofrer Já não sonho, hoje faço Com meu braço o meu viver
@@geraldovieira1248 Eu n acho que chegue a ser um contraponto, mas não adianta esperar a mesma consonância e coesão de música popular no jazz, o jazz é assim mesmo haha desacostumados vão achar que é "música ruim"
Kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk não consigo para de rir. Essa turma aí só sabe improvisar. Tipo quando vc se depara com um livro e passa o mês pra entender uma página
American jazz people, great as they truly are, are not up to this in any sort of "no rehearsal needed" fashion. Clams abound, here and other instances.
