Autumn Leaves

Posted by Claudia Moser on 7:32 AM in , ,
Peter is a wonderful teacher, he shows me music from different perspectives and one great examples of different means of interpreting a song is by listening to the following versions of Autumn Leaves.


Wynton Marsalis at its best


Eric Clapton, great voice


Chet Baker's approach


Simple jazzy


Another trio


and the original

Hi Claudia. I agree with Karen - it's lovely to hear that beautiful song in so many different ways. I have always loved the original, and I'm a sucker for Eric Clapton too! Hope your weekend is going well my friend.

All are good, but there's just something about Clapton's music and voice. Thanks for the music lesson! Hugs.

I like Eric Clapton and Yves Montand's version the best, but then I'm not big on jazz. I really enjoyed this.

Motto

"A story is not like a road to follow … it's more like a house. You go inside and stay there for a while, wandering back and forth and settling where you like and discovering how the room and corridors relate to each other, how the world outside is altered by being viewed from these windows. And you, the visitor, the reader, are altered as well by being in this enclosed space, whether it is ample and easy or full of crooked turns, or sparsely or opulently furnished. You can go back again and again, and the house, the story, always contains more than you saw the last time. It also has a sturdy sense of itself of being built out of its own necessity, not just to shelter or beguile you."
