Now 96 and still appreciate Ewan's playing this great classic.iPlan to celebrate my 100th birthday by playing it yet again for all friends and family!!
I am 95 years old and have listened to more than 30 versions of this Sidney Bechet classic and have concluded that this is the finest version I've heard. Thank you Ewan!
At 94 I am listening during Covid lockdown and find I can forget the misery and really appreciate Ewan on the clarinet playing this classic so smoothly . I play it every day !!
There are plenty of clarinet players and many of them can really play, but Ewan is in a class of his own. Tuba Skinny took a hit when he left. He's even matched Sidney's vibrato! No other Player I've heard, has done that. I sincerely appreciate this man's talent and skill.
@@ianbrookes8939 Had never heard of her! I've listened now but I don't rate her at all - she's a show off and can't match EB's authentic style and creativity, IMHO.
@@johnwhite4246 i too am a new orleans inspired clarinetist and reed player. i think every comment is subjective. i have met and played with mrs ketchens who like nina simone was trained as a classical musician. she is a very humble woman and has scratched a living for many years. the great thing bout jazz is its diversity and advancement. i prefer the traditional style of new orleans playing, but doreen is a virtuoso much as is a w marsalis. have you considered michael white who is also a very fine player.... met him too... and paul gauthe who cycled everywhere, met him in 1987, ......i hope you have managed to listen to a wide array of styles, and they exist within the nola format.....anyway i do appreciate you are a fan of a minority music that needs to reach far more people, especially usa.
I am only 82, a former mediocre player until my left pinky went 'DUPREY' on me. But in-DEED, Ewan made me cry with his simplicity and feeling! Speed isn't the Heart! He played from the heart!
@@Yuppie.Mike. . THis is Ewan here!. thanks for you apreciation. if you want to her more things like subscribe to my youtube channel. ruclips.net/user/ewanbleach.
Been following Ewen for about 6 or 7 years on both sides of the Atlantic. This track confirms that he is among the finest of the swing jazz people currently on the scene anywhere. If we can get past covid a bit maybe some concert tours may be in the works. Bravo Ewen!
I also love his soprano sax version-both are superb, a rare talent indeed to get such feeling into his playing. At 85 plus, I grew up with this music, played by the best. Ewan is up there with the top few, I keep coming back to his presentation, both on clarinet and soprano sax, which I also like very much. Greetings from Tasmania Australia 🎼👍😁🇦🇺
This man & clarinettist is absolutely BRILLIANT & BEAUTIFUL now i am a huge fan as i am of the brilliance of many more eg--- ACKER BILK-- BENNY GOODMAN. This beautiful sound is coming from a BRILLIANT CLARINETTIST == LOVE IT.🎵🎶🎼🎸🎹
This is the most Beautiful Tune My Late Mom loved it whilst cooking she would Whistle this tune Thanks Mr Bleach & Thank you Murielle Weston - Duval for kindly sharing
I really think is the very best arrangement of this beautiful song on RUclips. Or any other format. Ewan is so smooth I could listen to him all day. I also miss him with Tuba Skinny. What a great entertainer. Someday I hope to see him live.
Si tu vois ma mere! One of Sidney Bechet's timeless classics. Boy, could that man write a tune. I know he's a hero in France but should have much wider world wide recognition. Mr. Bleach captures Sidney's spirit flawlessly
George Grosman : Je confirme , Sidney a été le plus français des musiciens de jazz américains, il a été très bien accueilli et a laissé beaucoup de bons souvenirs ... Entre ‘Si tu vois ma mère’ et ‘Petite Fleur’ .... Combien de bébés ont pu être conçus ??
Love this version thank you for giving me great enjoyment I am 83 years by old and remember dancing very slowly too this with my ex husband many many years ago
Probably one of the finest tributes to Sidney Bechet,s very beautiful ode to his Mother,and even my wife,Bernadette,is totally knocked out by this recording-4 stars
I never dared to play this on clarinet as I thought I would not be able to come close to that brilliant, "torch song"-like soprano sax sound of Bechet. But Mr. Bleach has a totally different idea how to interpret this beautiful song - romantic and tender. Gorgeous!
MrJimmienoone With all sincerity.... And with love.... Stop being a bitch. - If you can play this song, do what is necessary to grow your soul. Then play it with soul. Mean it. And then you’ve lived a little bit. YOLO. For real. - Best of luck. ❤️
Sublime, the best version I’ve ever heard, it pulls at my heart strings. He is a fine musician who feels every note he plays. Just wonderful to listen to. Judith
First class musicianship from Ewan Bleach and his fellow musicians, what a tear jerker or a tune, every note crafted to give this beautiful performance. I also listen to Ewan's Sunday Serenade every Sunday evening 20:00hrs- 22:00 GMT on live on You Tube.
Уважаемый кларнетист, которого я когда-то видел в составе бэнда Tuba Skinny, сыграл, наверное, самое запоминающееся соло, какое я пока слышал за все свои 15 лет, в такой удивительно-прекрасной мелодии от Сиднея Бечета.. В голове засело.. До мурашек
Very nice tone that he gets from what looks like a very old vintage clarinet. He has a mastery of playing softly while getting a lot of subtle articulation and voicing effects that harken back to another era.
me too! He is great. Nice to see that he is active though. Just have to keep following him. Tuba Skinny is a great band for him though. Wish he would be back there.
i started when I was 12 and im 51 now...good luck 😉look up a word called "Embouchure"...takes a few years to get it right, then you can start working on "tone" never mind learning how to read music properly otherwise its a waste of time...this guy is a genius and he's probably been playing music since he was in primary school
Love from Mary Auckland New Zealand. Some of us have dreams & others goals. My dream & goal would be to give you the biggest hug. Thank you for this piece.
Now 96 and still appreciate Ewan's playing this great classic.iPlan to celebrate my 100th birthday by playing it yet again for all friends and family!!

I believe you are correct! Beautiful version. Ewan can also rip it up on sax and piano!
Wow.. Jack Morris.,... What an honor to be able to Enjoy it.... Again during the time and era

cant get any smoother than this.
I am only 94 and Ewan Bleach can make me cry or laugh and dance. What a great sound he makes, especially with his clarinet.
I am 83 years old, and play this beatiful song in my accordion, learned to play at 8 years of age.
At 95 I am still playing this marvelous piece every day! Cures the blues! Covid Nah!!
O mon dieu! Je suis dans une rêve!

How gracious..to give the guitarist and the bass player their moment.
There aren't any words for this man's Talent! 💯

and my soprano playing is recorded in a brief 1.5 minutes under the lazy allicator not gator but cator on youtube.
and what about anat cohen
The addition of rhythm guitar is what makes this version so special and evocative.

The music of Sidney Bechet has timeless qualities. Well played by this clarinet player
Ewan you're my favorite Clarinet player. Wow!! Beautiful.
Goodgrieflouise The clarinet is extremely versatile and can - as we hear here - express a lot of sentiments.
Simply superb - I listen to this over and over again!!
This is one of the best versions of this song if all time.
I agree. Better than the Bechet original.
I love this recording. I'm trying to play it exactly like he does.

Shuffling slow and swinging...Captures the essence, the heart and soul of the original. Brilliant!!
Bechet is weeping with joy
Magnifique!!!!!
An old play way.
OLD SCHOOL!!!

Thanks Murielle for uploading these videos. This version of the song is superb!
Just the most beautiful rendition!
A real clarinet sound!
I miss him (Ewan Bleach) at Tuba Skinny.
me too! He is great. Nice to see that he is active though. Just have to keep following him. Tuba Skinny is a great band for him though. Wish he would be back there.

Sinon il est aussi à : manoverboardswing.co.uk/ en G.B. ...
He's back
He is!
Yes l agree, a real clarinet sound and nearer to Bechet than many can do.
I am only 53 years old, and I think I`m still a chance to learn ;) Merci beaucoup!
