That orchestra is fabulous! One of the few real singers in the world
It's crazy how often I rewatch this. It's the best anxiety-reducing music I've found. It always puts me in a better head space. Gregory Porter is a master.
Amen
Very true...
Amen 🙏🏾🩷👩🏾🦱👩🏾🎨
Great stuff.
from my very own hometown of bakersfield ca. we're so proud of you my brother. please honor us with a local performance.we want to embrace your brilliance...
I’ve only just discovered Gregory Porter, and I can’t get enough. I’ve been on RUclips all day experiencing a daytime par-tay!!!!🎉🎉🎉🎉
The goodness in all people all around the world is put into the lyrics and music of Gregory Porter, all from the heart. His fame is not only because of his talent; fans love his work because his work touches what everyone wants life to be on this Earth, but just can't achieve. So listening to him is a sweet sadness and joy bringing tears of joy and sadness to each and every one of us who connect with the desire, the thought, the feeling, the need to make a connection with life as it was meant to be. Peace.
I just discovered his live performances, and I am amazed, if I get the chance to see him live, I will certainly go. You made a beautiful comment by the way.
In my life I have had to work with the Costers, Platers, Etta James and the Drifters. It was a great ride but I must confess, when i listen to this consort, "I can't feel the ground under my feet" He lifts me up.
The French horn at 9:35 and the runs are stellar then the interplay with the sax just takes it to another level!!!!!!!
Not to be too nitpicky, but that's actually a flugelhorn, which is generally considered to be a little bit more like a trumpet than a french horn. Some might say that it is halfway "between" a trumpet and french horn. It is a really nice bit of collective improv for sure!
No problem and you are not being nit-picky at all. I would rather be corrected than to be allowed to be wrong. Thanks for the info A Mat!
classy
"Mother's Song" is a tear-jerker. Mr. Porter, with the Metropole Orchestra, is astonishing.
Oh man I cry… for my momma
Metropole Orchestra is Fire! My favorite orchestra bar none. Brilliant!
Greg Porter is The Greatest Since Sliced Wheat Bread. And That Cat on The Sax is Cold Blooded. I'm Digging All Of This ❤🍃

I was a co-worker this weekend at cactusfestival in Bruges where he performed. I had the privilege to shake his handat the backstage and tell him how much I appreciated his concert. A very kind and warm person with an amazing talent. One of the best concerts I've ever seen !!
bruges IN France OR IN bELGIUM ?
In Belgium :)
Brecht Vanderbeken THIS CAT IS BAD
I can listen to this performance every day! I love Gregory Porter and that Orchestra. I 'm so glad I found him! He makes my day. Thank you..
Gregory Porter is a throw-back to the jazz era when we had great singers. A friend
gave me his first album and I fell in love with Gregory singing. I look forward to more great music from him.
Don't know how many times I've watched this....what vocal finesse......and the orchestra who show you that they are enjoying what they are doing!
“WOW”
Awesome concert, vocalist, orchestra, audience!
The singing is great, but this orchestra is outstanding, each solo is right on the money. Good music will always be good, thank you Gregory Porter.
Loving Gregory Porter's vocals but this orchestra is mind blowing indeed!
So proud, our dutch metropole
When music is pure and genuine, it creates an ambiance that speaks it own language without words! Simply beautiful....
Gregory Porter though 😍👏 The orchestra itself is amazing 👏👏👏
A sublime performance by both artist and orchestra! The arrangements are awesome. Wish I had been there.
Who knew! I thought I knew all The jazz greats but this leaves me ... and Amsterdam's Metropole Orchestra is outstanding with Gregory Porter. Bravo!
The Metropole Orkest's home base is in Hilversum, The Netherlands, but that does not take away from them being the world's best jazz and pop orchestra (orchestra meaning symphonic sections plus a jazz big band)
A mother who's life lifted up me....that was my mother. This song has so much emotion for me, and I can tell by the way Gregory performed this song, that it was emotional for him also. Great talent!!!
A beautiful composition!!!!!
Name of song please
This BROTHER IS AMAZINGLY AMAZING.
Gregory Porter is magnificent. And I love the flick of music sheet 8:21 from the Conductor. Wow on Sax then trumpet. When you got soul you soul...
This man is a genius. I saw him in Charlotte NC a little while back. He is a true artist. His voice is just as good if not better LIVE.
doesn't get any better than this. just amazing moving music.
Power and on the money, One of the best. Very moving. The messages he sings are very deep. Good work and a great orchestra.
Gregory Porter is amazing! The orchestra is so superb! They make great team! I watch this concert 20 times, and I'll watch it a 1000 times again. I love good music. Not factory music but that music that remind you of that old great wine. Go head Gregory Porter! Go head!
I love this man!
The above statement expresses my sentiment exactly! Great music seldom heard these days. Love it!
Marcus Webb. Well said!!!
Just discovered this concert and have to say I loved every minute. The enthusiasm and appreciation of the audience, along with this amazing orchestra and of course the sublime Gregory Porter. An absolute treat to watch and listen to. Thankyou to all the musicians and to Mr Porter. Hope I will one day get to see you live 💛✨💛✨💛✨
GOOSE BUMPS!!! OMG!!! WHERE HAVE I BEEN!!! I LOVE HIS WORK! IT'S A GOD THING AND A GIFT FROM HIM!!!👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 THANK YOU LORD FIR GREGORY! BLESS HIM!!!
One of the Greatest of the newer singers with definately the greatest orchestra of all time!
Gregory Porter is an amazing talent. The orchestra is clearly enjoying his brilliant music and energy
outstanding artist that has sheer talent and dexterity, a music genius.
I was really moved by a truly great performance. This should be made into a live album. It would sell well over a million copies.
what a performance... the crowd's reaction during and after Mother's Song tells a tale.
loving Gregory Porter. his music is so pure...I mean that in a musical sense.
thanks for sharing this performance. I think I have all of his cds but I can tell that this concert was awesome. Listen to the joy in his voice. Thanks again.
You just witnessed one of the greatest live jazz perfomances in the history of the genre.
This is just an amazing orchestra playing the most wonderful music. All the greats of jazz have performed with the Metropole from Stan Getz to Mark Murphy, Phil Woods to Clare Fischer, Bud Shank to Clarke Terry, Peter King to Bill Evans, Lee Konitz to Bob Brookmeyer and dozens more. They all loved the experience many returned time and time again.
The BBC shed its Concert Orchestra on cost grounds and denied us the joy of sounds like this. Thank you to Dutch Radio at Hilversum for carrying on supporting this orchestra and the arrangers like Rob Pronk and Dolf Van der Linden, under the most difficult of circumstances. We need this music for our souls.
The Chain Gang song is moving!! That trombone, the horn section is terrific. The whole orchestrater is good!! Sing Gregory Porter!!
He is now my FAVORITE new vocalist of the year. LOVE LOVE LOVE!
Tout le concert est absolument exceptionnel ! Je ne me lasse pas de le réécouter... L’osmose entre Gregory Porter, l’orchestre et le public est unique et magique. Un temps au-delà du temps... L’énergie d’amour est palpable dans chaque note et chaque silence. Gregory est le capitaine du navire et il garde le cap de main de maître jusqu’au bout, emmenant tout l’équipage avec lui. Il est à ce jour, pour moi, le plus grand. En connexion directe avec la musique des sphères ! Merci infiniment pour ce partage 🙏❤️🌺
He's a game changer love listening to his music day or night always good
Did have the honor to hear him with the Metropole Orchestra in Munich, Tollwood Festival just yesterday. I guess this was the very best concert i heard for years. Greg is a singer of extraordinary quality with a wonderful stage presence. Also the Orchestra is playing on such a high level that i wished they would play all night through.
This is real music, these are real musicians. God thanks for this evening, i´ll never forget it. Thank you Greg for your voice and for your songs!
+KlaRa474 I would pay with my "eye teeth" to have been at the concert rehearsal. I just saw Gregory Porter at Carnegie Hall/nyc 2 weeks ago at a Bill Wither's tribute. He was terrific... duetted with Valerie Simpson on one song...and took over the microphone on the final song. Whew!
This man and all of the music behind him is a refreshment to today’s music and is a super super replacement
What a brilliant performance by Gregory and the orchestra. Gregory never disappoints.
I was very impressed with this performance.
Doesn't get much better. Smooooth !!
I have seen Gregory two times, once at the Hollywood Bowl and his voice is a gift from God. His songs are so uplifting and he is the future of jazz and hopefully young people will be inspired by him. Thanks Gregory!!
how right you are.....💯💯👍
I’m 24 years old listen to him for years! But I’m jazzy from my parents
You were correct 💯
Gregory Porter has the happiest face I have ever seen.... I love him
I've heard these arrangements with other orchestras he's played with and this is by far the most soulful, and best orchestra ever. It's hard to made Gregory Porter look bad, but this orchestra manages to elevate his performance. I'm already a Gregory Porter Fan and now a Metropole Orchestra fan. now.
Glad to have found Mr. Porter and his voice. This concert is marvelous.
A GREAT JAZZ SINGER AND CROONER/ BIG UP RESPECT !!!!
God, in His infinite wisdom sends angels to earth to remind us to turn our eyes and ears to higher Things. Gregory Porter is one of those special gifts sent to us to touch our hearts and bring joyful tears to our eyes. I pray That God Bless him at every turn.
Fully agree Daoud

Daoud Haroon His music makes me think about aspects of humanity and love.

I totally agree that their chemistry is "body-awakening"!!! Just WOW!!! THIS IS A KEEPER!!!
Phenomenal talent. Touch special ear for this tapestry of music. Bravo.
Absolutely Soul Nourishing!!! Brilliant!!!
soooooo refreshing to hear this kind of gift....and a clean artist, shooting straight from the heart. just got turned on to him by my son. can't get enough. could not sleep so at 3 o'clock am I'm up listening to gregory.
And not to forget the wonder of this orchestra 🥰
"Be Good" just slays me. There is a spiritual, mystical, etherial quality about it that touches my soul. Whew!
One of greatest singers of the time along with the greatest orchestra of all-time!
Люблю этот голос, разнообразие, азарт, эксперименты в музыкальных стилях, ремиксы, позитив, драйв! Грегори лучший! Хочу попасть на концерт )))
Amazing -- when you can tell the orchestra is loving it!
So good, exquisite. The Metropole orchestra is fantastic! A voice like Gregory Porter's comes along once in a generation.
I was Blessed to catch Mr. Porter on the radio, it was just near the end of his song I never heard before but his voice was unforgettable that I refuse to change the station in hope it would play again & I could hear who he was & the name of the song. Simply BEAUTIFUL, I am hoping to go to his performance soon.
I fell back in love with music again!😊😊😊The bassist is the bomb!
The one bassist is holding the bottom throughout the entire concert!!!
This entire concert is magnificent from start to finish!
Music is my therapy...Gregory Porter is a SPECIALIST...FOOD FOR THE SOUL...SIMPLY AMAZING..!!!
This orchestra is a songwriter's dream. Gregory is beyond a dream.
So TRUE. I've heard many concerts in my lifetime, but this Orchestra is out of this world❣❣❣
Damn right our dutch metropole is the best of the best
The arrangements omg
A Master with Great musicians,Just Amazing!!!!
Gregory has just been confirmed for the NSJF in Rotterdam 2014. I'll be there to watch him. What a voice. what a talent.
By the time he got to the song "1960 What" I had chills running down my spine. Wow this entire concert was flawless. No doubt Gregory Porter is one of the Jazz greats and by the just the perfection of this performance he sure enough earned it.
Thomas Patterson HE is a beast of a writer and singer....
+Thomas Patterson The recording is very solid, as well ... didn't expect that for a live recording on You-Tube.
+Thomas Patterson I call Gregory the Voice of the Millennium!!! chills all over..23:00 ff
+Carl Lowery Yes! When you hear so many of Porter's songs, you think they are classics he's covered - then you realize most of his songs are NEW CLASSICS he's written himself and sung - all the more amazing! Peerless talent.
+Dozer LA Exactly. All his songs aren't standards but instead are originals written by HIM! This guy is the new gold standard in music, as far as I'm concerned.
Wow! I'm sitting at work listening to this beautiful brother singing and the band playing and I'm thanking God! This is great!
The first time I have heard him. Simply superb singer and a wonderful orchestra. My kind of music.
Gregory Porter is an amazing lyrical genius. I saw him once in concert he is simply so original in his style & musical talent. The acoustics 🎵🎶🎺🎹 are so divinely beautiful & soothing to anyone's ears...I rest well when I hear that Gregory Porter Come to the Alley....
He has bowled me over and is my favorite artist. Great singer and wonderful songwriter
This is what real singing is all about. He is absolutely fantastic! Good for you Gregory!
So very perfect! Perhaps my favorite performance on the tube. Won’t say how many times I have it on repeat! The Metropole Orchestra is simply the best there is. The talent oozing from every member is completely breathtaking. Who else better to compliment and bring out the talents of the incomparable Gregory Porter! Simply a match made in heaven!! ❤️🔥❤️🔥

🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
Exactly what I feel like doing
🌷📜
Yup!!!
I've been a big fan of Gregory Porter ever since his debut "Water" several years back, and so happy this concert was uploaded: it's simply fantastic, amazing, astonishing - his vocals, the tone, the phrasing, the warmth, the color, the sheer joy of performance - WOW!
Just started listening to GP and he is a revelation, real music for real people.
His voice and spirit nourishes my soul and gives me hope for this world. What an amazing gift. Thank you, Mr. Porter!
I sit in front of my computer and wish I was there. Amazing!!!
Magic. I have watched this video innumerable times. Gregory is a joy to behold... and... the band and arrangements are sublime. This is one of those perfect nights when everything "clicks" and everyone is performing at their best. Fantastic.
Gregory even controls the crowd..superb talent!
Same here. Trying to go to bed, in order to get up early but I can't turn him off. I'm hooked
so true
AWESOME.
Mike P my eyes teared up to such beauty and I’m a percussionist myself.. 1960 what?
I’ve heard this cut added to a deep house track ... WICKED!
But I never knew who it was until today.. just now.
I love you Gregory Porter. My soul stirs when I listen to you sing. It's kind of like sliced bread, the best. I listen to this particular concert over and over because my daily bread is eaten right along side with this heavenly annointed man.
This orchestra has one of the best brass sections that can keep company with the late James Brown's band. The trombone solos were off the charts.😁😁
Thanks for sharing your gifts with us.
Metropole Orchestra is on point here! They got Gregory's back big time and he's loving it
SO WONDERFUL!!!!!!!!
I love Gregory Porter's music! Wow!
a great singer and an outstanding orchestra !!!
This is just Beautiful!!!.....there is no other word to describe what’s happening here...except maybe magical!! In my 35 years as a session musician..just occasionally..JUST...a performance happens ..and when you get backstage ..the whole group will look a each other...ad shake their heads...and say YUP!!! We straightened this one out!! Thats what seemed to have happened here....so in Gregory Porter’s life...he will look back at this performance and shake his head and say.....YYYYEEEEAAAAHHH!
He is on another level here . I've seen him live two times , he was incredible but this performance is something else . 👌
God sent an angel to sweeten our soul. Gregory Porter your voice feels me with joy. The orchestra complete you. Thank you Lord. 💜
Jazz its soooo great, thanks Gregory Porter.
what God listens to when there is 49 minutes of free time. I am 78 and used to spend my nights at the
Vanguard, Gate and Bliue Note. Even booked the MJQ for a huge event once. This man is the perfect blend of what you want in a Jazz performer and gotta feeling in a human being too. fabulous tone and phrasing and warmth and love he emanantes. Sting chose him to sing song he wrote for the Polar Contest in 2017--- watch it Its Probably Me is damn good but first song at this event is one of 10 best songs i have ever heard. And huge kudos to the orchestra--- 49 minutes of magic.
Flawless. What a singer. What an orchestra. What a sound.
I love Gregory Porter's music. I can't say it enough.
+Anita Neal I do too. He is like a re-embodiment of Luther Vandross and Donnie Hathaway
Vonnie C Yes Indeed!
I could listen to him all day. Love his tone of his voice.
Agreed! Simply wonderful
This cat is amazing! Listen to all his concerts. He has a texture to his voice that is joyful and comforting!
Jan. 9th 2021, 12:30 am. In the midst of a pandemic and major social unrest in the USA WE HAVE A MAN OF THE WORLD bringing a smidgin of love and peace. I say thank you Gregory Porter. Much obliged!
This guys voice is so good. Great lyrics
WOW this orchestra is killing!!! first song painted canvas teared me up. Simply beautiful!!!! Gregory Porter is a legend already.
Best orchestra in the world, so proud of our metropole
Гениальный Gregory Porter, гениальный The Metropole Orchestra ничто не может превзойти это сочетание!? И еще раз, оркестр просто великолепный, самый лучший!!
a miracle to experience this kind of divine gifting... real music in all its best
