MUSIC: "Autumn Leaves" performed by Eva Cassidy and the LSO

Gorgeous!!!

A sad song
But so very Beautiful
Made even more beautiful By Eva
She had that rare wonderful quality
To make a song her own
And deliver it so perfectly

"Eva Cassidy, the versatile, much-missed vocalist praised for her emotional range and interpretive skills, receives a unique reimagining as her poignant vocal performance of the classic song "Autumn Leaves" is paired with the backing of the London Symphony Orchestra. This inspired musical context was created by isolating Eva's 1996 live vocal performance recorded at the Blues Alley Jazz Club in Washington, DC and combining it with a new orchestral arrangement by the team of four-time Emmy Award winner William Ross and Grammy winner Jochem van der Saag."

It is an interesting effort, but I personally don't think that the orchestra really adds to Eva Cassidy's own plaintive voice.

Such a beautiful voice. You’ve shared her songs before.

I think you summed it up best: "A sad song But so very Beautiful"
