Beautiful!!! Spectacular!!! When songs were poetry set to music. It brings tears to my eyes where we have come from and where we are today.

As always what Roger arranges is gorgeous! And what a voice!

Her voice touches my soul.

One of my favorite songs! She has a gorgeous voice.

I could listen to this lady’s voice all night!

You put your finger on something . . . a voice that you never tire of hearing. Like Sinatra. And very few others. Other great singers I can take a couple of consecutive tracks. You too? Thanks for sharing, Eric Lundquist. Calabria's biggest fan in the world's coldest major city (Winnipeg, Canada) -- Mark B of the frozen North

A magic score /arrangement of a higher scale of devine, unique beauty. ❤ I would love to study this score ! ❤

Gives hope that the classics will endure. Just such a beautiful interpretation.

Beautiful song, beautiful voice, beautiful arrangement. Richard

So awsome..beautiful❤

Wonderful arrangement, so positively complimenting a sensative vocal interpretation and haunting melody!

Lovely.

After midnight Siriusly Sinatra satellite radio is playing (just for me, I like to think) my favorite living singer Calabria Foti and her rendition of When I Look in Your Eyes -- one of the best songs composed (words & music) by Leslie Bricusse. The arrangement which Calabria Foti rightly describes as “stunning and gorgeous” is by her good friend Roger Kellaway - a jazz piano giant whose work TV viewers first heard on the closing theme for ALL IN THE FAMILY: Has it really been fifty years? -- since a young Mr. Kellaway played that 'stride' style piano on his own composition “Remembering You” as a camera pans over a neighborhood in Brooklyn. Thanks to Mr. Kellaway himself for sharing this one with us. Below the video a question from a kindred spirit: "Who's on horn in this stunning performance?" asked Marcia Cohen. Answer: Calabria's hubby Bob McChesney, arguably the greatest virtuoso -- classical or jazz -- who ever picked up a trombone! Search KZread for his classical recordings -- of music written for the trumpet -- but which Bob performs on a slide trombone. Merely impossible. But beyond that most amazing technique is a sense of taste -- including his use of silences -- knowing that what is left out of a solo, is almost as important as what was included. You know what I mean. Yes, the solo and his closing coda on this one gives me goosebumps. You too? Thanks, Roger for sharing this gem.

Hi Mark, I just now found this… Thank you so much!!!

WHEN I LOOK IN YOUR EYES -- Calabria's version (my favorite) at KZread this day My new favorite version of one of the best songs composed (words & music) by a friend of the late Frank Sinatra Jr's - Leslie Bricusse. The arrangement which Calabria Foti rightly describes as “stunning and gorgeous” is by her good friend Roger Kellaway - a jazz piano giant whose work TV viewers first heard on the closing theme for ALL IN THE FAMILY (has it really been fifty years?) A young Mr. Kellaway playing 'stride' style piano on his own composition “Remembering You” as a camera pans over a neighborhood in Brooklyn. To my utter delight the not-so-random shuffle play at KZread just sent my way a moment ago Calabria & Kellaway's take on this great song - track 5 on her most recent “Prelude to a Kiss” album. Track 9, my second favorite recording (after Peggy's) of THE FOLKS WHO LIVE ON THE HILL features Roger Kellaway's breathtaking solo - one I believe the most influential pianist Bill Evans would have loved. Thanks to Mr. Kellaway himself for sharing this one with us. Celebrated this day at Sinatra Family - Forum - "Other Celebrities" folder -- where the Calabria Foti thread is nearing 2,000 "views" sinatrafamily.com/forum/showthread.php/50183-Calabria-Foti/page3 "Who's on horn in this stunning performance?" asked Marcia Cohen (1 week ago). Her hubbie Bob McChesney. Quite simply the greatest virtuoso -- classical or jazz -- who ever picked up a trombone. Search KZread for his classical recordings -- of music written for the trumpet -- but which Bob performs on a slide trombone. Merely impossible. But beyond that most amazing technique is a sense of taste -- including his use of silences -- knowing that what is left out of a solo, is almost as important as what was included. You know what I mean. Yes, the solo and his closing coda gives me goosebumps. You too?

So glad to discover you this morning...on a tv channel...this recording is exactly what a good singer aspires to..excellent recording...classy...why do I not know you...

Roger is always right

F A B U L O U S!!!! ❤️

Thanks for singling out the soloist -- and spelling Bob's name correctly! The greatest slide trombonist, classical or jazz who ever lived. For his tone, technique and the content of his solos. Breathtakingly beautiful. Check out his classical solos on KZread -- virtuoso pieces for trumpet which Bob plays perfectly -- on a SLIDE TROMBONE!!! Merely impossible. My dream is to see this talented couple live, in person, one day. -- Calabria's biggest fan in the world's coldest major city, Winnipeg Canada -- Mark B of the frozen North

@@MarkBlackburnWPG Yes, I'm back and I agree - goosebumps. I have sung this song many times since i first heard Calabria Foti sing it.

S U P E R B !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

привет а как шла работа над этой аранжировкой? нет ли задумки сделать нечто романтичное с оркестром?
