    "Les feuilles mortes" was written by Joseph Kosma in 1945, with French lyrics by Jacques Prévert. Johnny Mercer wrote the English lyric version, "Autumn Leaves", which has been recorded by countless jazz icons including Nat King Cole, Frank Sinatra, Edith Piaf, Ahamd Jamal, Duke Ellington, and MANY others.
    Beegie Adair was a treasured member of the Nashville jazz community for many decades before her passing in 2022. She often performed at the Nashville Jazz Workshop with her trio while she wasn't busy enchanting audiences across the US. Her trio has sold more than 1.5 million albums--a true testament to her graceful and emotive playing.

    I was a young recording engineer in Nashville during the 80s and worked with Beegie and her husband Billy frequently. They were both excellent musicians. More importantly, they were genuinely nice people. They were classy, with a cool and sophisticated edge that made them stand out from the rest of us. Billy called her “Beeg” and I always loved hearing him say “hey Beeg” during our recording sessions. If you love Beegie’s music, I hope that you will love it even more by knowing what a kind, companionate, and wonderful person that she really was.

      I think it’s the maturity of their age... the older the person the more his brain experiences emotions that in musicians can be expressed like this! I really doubt a really young musician can express such a rich emotional scale in a piece, no matter how good his/hers technique is. I just love this video.

Or in another reality - in some secret restaurant or cafe, wearing a shiny 80-s style dress, sitting in the corner around a tiny table with the man I deeply love, having amazing conversations and then dancing in the middle of the restaurant.

I mostly listen to Kpop, pop, rap, hip hop and r&b music. I am glad they let me play jazz for the first time because now I can finally taste the beauty of Jazz music and get inspiration for my first ever jazz piece!

    Oddly, her songs came on my utube a few minutes ago and Autumn Leaves was the first.
    My parents were musicians, and played this song often.
    So appropriate for Oct 2 2022.
    It is as if,her spirit is still here.
    I played Bessie Mucho in High School Concert and Marching band.
    I played clarinet.
    My brother played drums.
    My parents were very talented musicians, unfortunately, they didn't become famous but we grew up with almost every instrument and had music lessons from age 5 years old.
    So we were taught to learn and appreciate all musical genres as well as instruments,as well as the musicians singers.
    This is certainty a sentimental song for me,because my mother passed in September, 1997 and we found so much of her sheet music and of course, Autumn Leaves was in the group.
    My brother got all the sheer music, because, he plays in a band.
    My children and grandchildren, each took music lessons and I can proudly say,they each play an instrument.
    Her last video ,she was 83 and died shortly. after.
    She is Missed
    I hope she has children to carry on her legend and legacy May she have had a peaceful transition.
    I like to think she may have met my parents and all the musicians who went before her.
    I got emotional listening to her,today.It is. like she and my parents and all the musicians in my family and who were my parents friends, came together today to honor Ms.Begie. Adair.

      @@reynaldon1295 Ah yes-I was a teen myself in the mid-60s. I remember it well-that was the time when a beetle changed from being something you stomped on if it got into your bedroom, to a group of 4 lovable mop-tops, who got the name for their group by changing the 2nd e in "beetle" to an a, to reflect the fact that what they were doing was creating music, which as we all know, has a beat. Thus the Beatles were born! That's the group, not literally the lads themselves of course. No, each member of the Beatles entered the world in the early 40s. Ha ha-if it was the lads that had been born in the 60s, they would've had to call themselves "Bubz on Guitars" or something. Result wouldn't have been much different though-girls still would've been screaming, but mostly coz of them playing all the wrong notes.🤪

      I wish this style of music would become popular again, especially in cocktail lounges. This music induces you to "level up" and at least try to
      act elegantly. People have gotten too casual, and to meet someone with "old school" class is rare today.

      @@bustabass9025 The truth is that this is a fine local trio, but it's not in the same class as Oscar, Bill Evans, Art Tatum, Shearing, Bud Powell, Monk, McCoy Tyner, Monty Alexander, Billy Taylor, Earl Hines, Dave Brubeck, Chick Corea, Herbie Hancock, Ahmad Jamal, Kenny Barron and the several dozen other piano trios/quartets that have defined the art of piano jazz in the 20th century. Beegie's trio makes music that's as plain-speaking and comfortable as the musicians' appearance. But it's not cutting-edge improvisation by musicians blessed with virtuoso technique and a willingness to risk everything for the prize of truth and beauty. Use this as an entrance to an appreciation of this dazzling, brilliant, evolving African-American art form (with lots of help from the many composers of the Great American Songbook).

      Actually, I made that entrance over fifty years ago, when I first heard Bill on the landmark Miles Davis album, Kind of Blue...and I've never looked back! Everyone of the pianists you name indeed carved their own niche in this genre of ingenious, creative, improvisational statement. Some not mentioned as well, Red Garland, Wynton Kelly, et.al. McCoy Tyner, (whom we lost yesterday, may he rest in peace) was indicative of the genius and stability that has defined jazz, in a time when the "next new thing" is on everyone's musical radar. Greatness is an earned appellation. You won't find in the same comparative caliber in a local ensemble, as you will in the work of the giants whose shoulders the very foundation of the music stands.🎹🎷🎺🎸🎶🎵
