what beautiful rendition thankyou Ms. Reeves

Phenomenal voice and execution. Great piano!

What a superb re-harmonisation of any already amazing song. Once again, this could well be THE definitive version of this song, thanks to Dianne's amazing voice and interpretation and wonderful musicians, especially the pianist. The Maud Maggart/Jamie Cullum version is great, too - very evocative - but for my 'Desert Island Disk' choice, this is it. I can (and do) listen to this over and over again, and I never tire of it.

Dianne’s vocalization is breathtaking and so full of emotion and authenticity. The piano accompaniment just added that right touch to make this rendition a truly great memorable experience. Thank you so much.

@@harrylanders3779 Yes, a perfect match. They've been playing together for a long time now, I hardly remember another pianist with her!

I’ve always loved this-I first heard it 65 years ago.

WOW! What a control this lady have. She’s just like an instrument. And i fall in love, without defense. Skylark will be played on my funeral, for sure. God bless this lady, although she’s already blessed!❤️

Oh Skylark... Have you seeeeeeeen......... where I left the remote.... What a magnificent performance all in all

Exhibition... Technique, soul, experience... Absolute mastering.

I love all that i have heard Dianne sing, i love her Tone, Picth , Articulation of delivery of every word she so graciously lets so easily roll of her throaty lingering voice, to me she's definitely got a lot a lot going on.❤️🌻❤️🌻❤️

Love the bending of the pitch on the higher overtones. Great piano countering the singing. Love both these performers.

Magnificent,astonishing.This woman sings from the deep of her heart and feelings.Only the true singers and musicians can do that.All the instruments are engaged with her voice in a perfect way and tempo.

One of the greatest jazz singers of all time singing the most exquisite rendition of an already exquisite song, helped in no small measure by a great arrangement (with some re-harmonisation) and great playing from the pianist in particular. Timeless.

Dianne you go to my head, I caught her at the Toronto Jazz Festival 2014 She was great. She let everybody know who her man was...the cat playing guitar.

Skylark is like Amazing Grace--it would probably sound fabulous even on bagpipes! The icing on this cake it is the sultry Dianne Reeves Herself rendering the delivery . . .

I've been listening to this concert so many times. Thanks so much for sharing this video. Soothing. Dianne Reeves is still my favorite contemporary female singer. Thrills, soul, spiritual healing music.

Stunning... and what a pianist !!

Beautiful lyrics, one of my all time favorite songs, many singers but she is one the best

Indeed, beautiful voice!!

Brava! A masterful intepretation of one of my favorite ballads. I will go further and say that Dianne Reeves' reading is the definitive version!

It's hard to find any classic American song so differently interpreted as Skylark. Maybe it's the mark of a great number that it can be given such diverse treatment and always come up trumps. This is, above all, a wistful song and Dianne and Peter got that down. Very nice indeed.

Tears to my eyes. Magnificent...

Hats off to Hoagy and Mercer for a truly lovely, winsome Jazz tune. So beautifully performed by Dianne and her brilliant empathetic accompanists. Thank you all.

This is the song that reminds me of my mom. As hard as I try when I listen,I always cry… sad like a gadjo! Truly the best performance of this song ever and the most valuable moment when I revisit it. Bravo ❤

Dianne Reeves! One of my favorite jazz singers! Thank you TJ

Absolutely beautiful.

Dazzzzling interpretation. Ive heard dozens of vocal versions but I think this is the best one. She sings with gusto and passion. Thanks for posting. Most enjoyable.

3 months I have listened to this soothing song almost every night as I go to sleep and will continue to do so for indefinitely. I relate deeply to the lyrics. Dianne, Peter and band have amazing talents performing an exceptional rendition of this song.

Great Peter Martin !!

Music is formed in the Brain, goes thru the Heart for Refinement, moves on to Vocal Chords for the Rendition. Which is why regardless of the Trance of the performers, music -- vocals, piano, etc. -- are performed with the expressions that go with the rendition.

Yes. I heard a young Aretha sing this ...n boy was it lifeless!

Maybe the best rendition of this song

Skylark Have you anything to say to me? Won't you tell me where my love can be? Is there a meadow in the mist Where someone's waiting to be kissed? Skylark Have you seen a valley green with spring? Where my heart can go a journeying Over the shadows and the rain To a blossom covered lane And in your lonely flight Haven't you heard the music in the night? Wonderful music, faint as a will o' the wisp Crazy as a loon, sad as a gypsy serenading the moon Oh skylark I don't know if you can find these things But my heart is riding on your wings So if you see them anywhere Won't you lead me there? Oh skylark I don't know if you can find these things But my heart is riding on your wings So if you see them anywhere Won't you lead me there? Türkçe diline çevir
