At age 16 I had just started working in a kitchen at Disneyland. Manhattan Transfer came to do a performance in Tomorrowland, I ended up taking my 30 minute lunch to watch the show. Disneyland did not allow cast members to watch shows in the park nor were they allowed to take an hour to do so. I almost lost my job, but I learned to buy tickets to see MT in the future. Saw them in concert perhaps 20 more times, not risking my job anymore. I will miss their shows at Disneyland (on days off) in Vegas, Chicago, New York, San Francisco, Oakland, Tokyo, Seattle, London, Sydney. Thanks MT. You helped me plan vacations all over the world, built my music collection and taught me the American Song Book. You are missed.
I'm so grateful we get to share this cross cultural treasure with the great German people
I've been a fan of the Transfer since I was 10, and their first album was released. Yes, the one after Tubby the Tuba!! Seen them 5 times in concert over the years. They're getting on a bit now but their years, no make that decades, of experience, shines through in the sheer quality of their singing. In my opinion, still the worlds premier vocal group. I cried when Tim Hauser passed away. He was one of a kind. However, Triss Curless has stepped in to fill the bass part and he's doing a magnificent job. The Transfer still sound like the Transfer, even after all these years. Long may they reign as the best! I've been in a vocal group myself, so I have some experience with this kind of close harmony singing. When Janis belts out the last verse of Operator, or sings Mystery, or many other legendary songs, it still after all these years gives me goose bumps. Way to go!!
Love it. I miss Tim Hauser however Trist sounds like Tim. With my eyes closed I would have thought it was him. Janis, Cheryl and Paul of course were wonderful. They've still got it! Wow what an orchestra. Great concert - I hope they are all staying safe.
so glad they found someone that is so good to fill tim's shoes...fantastic concert!
I go crazy! Forever Manhattan Transfer!!!! Wahnsinn....
trist curliss is doing great. it's natural to miss tim hauser, but it's so great the transfer keep on keepin' on. cologne is a trip!!!
Perfect pairing. Wonderful.
Love this! Love sing, sing, sing
Good thing I saw this video. I listened to this magnificent group way back when I was 7 years old, bec. of them I love music . You ignite my soul again.
One word..."Iconic"
The Transfer has "stayed the course" through it all. Even with the loss of Tim and earlier with Laurel's accident, the extraordinary quality of pure talent always continues. Cheryl and Trist have remained faithful to Tim's original vision for an innovative yet True Jazz Vocal Group with enormously versatile voices and creativity. Who would have thought a cabbie with a dream and three like minded, equally talented, and creative persons would have been a driving force behind some of the greatest music Worldwide crossing two Centuries. Many thanks for the Memories, Smiles, Tears, and Life!
Tim Hauser - Mastermind
Janis Siegel - Phenom the
Alan Paul - Vocal Seducer
Cheryl Bentyne - Songsiren
Trist Curless - Amazing
Laurel Masse - Songbird
Through all these years who could ask for more!
Try also the Hi-Los and of course Singers Unlimited
I loved Manhattan Transfer.
Great artist Forever！
Thank you
I cannot love this more. Thank you WDR Klassik for capturing and sharing this beautiful concert. I was lucky enough to see the final concert at Walt Disney Concert Hall, and many, many MT concerts in halls large and small since 1980 for me. We are all the richer for their amazing performances.
Thank you!
We're happy that you like our rendition 😊
Beautiful! Just sheer heaven listening to these extraordinary people.
Thank you! 🤗
First heard them on TV in 1975 at the MDA telethon, I was nine, and literally mesmerized by them. I met Janice in 86 and had the privilege of singing with her! I've seen them in concert easi l y a dozen times and I absolute love them! I could have did this Medley with them due to how long I've been singing these wonderfully arranged tunes! Consistently awesome!!!! The new guy is good but I dearly miss Tim's personality!😢
MT just like NY Voices are always at their best with this brilliant orchestra. I LOVE they way MT just keeps on rocking! I also admire the audience's respect for American artists and GET DRESSED! I miss those days of dressing up for concerts! I still do! Cant wait this pandemic is OVER so I can GO to a real concert.
I ALWAYS CALL THEM THE 360 GROUP BECAUSE THEY CAN SING WHAT EVER HOW EVER IN A MINUTE!
YAY at last people have caught on to this amazing concert. An outstanding performance from everyone involved.
Timeless, fab, wonderful, i will always be a fan.
The guy on the clarinet is fantastic! Sound just like Benny Goodman.
Esta banda com orquestra é o melhor que há
Thank you You Tube for this real treat. Just wish I had been there to see two class acts come together....MT and the wonderful orchestra

Wow, my favorite the great Manhattan Transfer. Their music is timeless, brings the youth in me. WDR Funkhausorchester complemented MT's music. Thanks for this video.
Hi, Alfredo!
You are very welcome!
Love it❤ thank you so…..much
Our pleasure!
We're glad that you like it 🥰
Excellence...
Always phenomenal.
Oh wie schön,
Dankeschön! 🤗
Fantastické
Absolutely timeless and wonderful !
Birdland wrongly credited to the great Gil Evans though.....let"s not forget that the composer is the late and one of a kind JOE ZAWINUL .
Thank you for this video... loved it very much....
Espectacular.
Excellent performance!!!
Niesamowity koncert, niesamowity kwartet, niesamowita orkiestra, niesamowita atmosfera z krainy czarów. Szkoda że nie wszyscy mogą to wchłonąć- świat byłby lepszy i piękniejszy.
cool, geniaaal, erfrischend...
OMG THANKU THIS IS GOLD!!!!
You're welcome!

thank u 4 this
You're welcome :)
Fans are still alive and more grown up together with you in japan.
International halls, Osaka,Kobe&Tokyo, we are waiting.2022-10-14
I first discovered MT while searching the best big band performance of the famous masterpiece Birdland. Then I just dug in internet whether I could have a chance to watch them live one day in future, preferably in Turkey. I will be seeking such an opportunity, independent of location. I already know WDR and their excellent performances, but this concert seems to be unforgettable. Thank you, god save you!
We're happy that you like it! 🤗
アンコールにビートルズの「グッド・ナイト」を歌う選曲のセンス👍
Ausgezeichnet, insbesondere die Letzte Sache!
Love this band.
Us too!
歳を重ねた今こうして現役で活躍できる事は人生最大の生き甲斐でしょう！羨ましいどすえ。
Sometimes I just can't find the words when I hear them sing. Saw them in concert 3 times. Unforgettable. They just get better. The orchestration behind is good, but I thought at times they were a little overpowering to the voices. Still great though.
Thank you!
No. That overpowering is just a natural fact cause they wouldn´t get a chance to be heard against an orchestra that size. It´s a matter of the PA engineer.
Pure class
Thank you! 😊
Beachtlich ... da bin ich teilweise nur sechs bis acht Jahre jünger
und restlos platt (mittendrinn) bei eignen Semi-Orchesterproben.
Hier Auftritt UND vorher bestimmt EIN halber DURCHLAUF aller
dargebotenen Stücke. Das hält man nur durch mit Gesundheits-Disziplin
und spielfreudiges Können, um SO BESTÄNDIG - TOP - zu bleiben.
Dankeschön 😄
LIKE THIS FROM JAPAN.
Maravilha, é a palavra que menos define essa apresentação.
Wowwwww
Lots of energy! Age? What age? Irrelevant. Thank you, Funkhausorchester for the link to the full concert.
You are welcome!
Nice to hear that you like it!
I'm a brass player by trade -- low brass, with the rest of the knuckledraggers, actually - but I have ALWAYS loved MHT. Hard not to. They are disciplined, but so willing to explore different sounds, different genres. SO excellent. (The new guy ain't so bad, either - lol) RIP Tim Hauser, but I am so pleased to see that MHT continues on. Tim would have like it that way too, I'm sure.
Em 2021.....good !!!
Thank goodness the 2nd half wasn't drowned out by the orchestra. You could hardly hear what the MT were singing 1st half.
One of the Great .
Shank you. Orchestra Wonderful. ☃️🪽🚀🤭
Thank you! 🤗
prelijepo nice extra swing N1
정말 지금까지도 공연을 해준다는게 감사합니다.
👏👏👏👏👏 🤩👍
Really glad they play Swing Balboa, my favo; for me this arrangement is better than the original, may be because of the brilliant bass player...
INIGUALÁVEIS
Obrigado. 😊
Muito muito jazz
An excellent and polished performance by both the Orchestra and of course the MHT quartet. I don't like the sound mix of this recording though, the orchestra is too loud and covers the fine harmonies too often, leaving their voices sounding thin and spiky, which they certainly are not. A lovely experience it must have been for the audience present.
Can someone tell me why the 2nd part of the concert suddenly is MONO and not STEREO??? 🤔
Hi, Thomas!
Thanks a lot for noticing! You can find the entire concert in stereo on our WDR homepage: www1.wdr.de/mediathek/video/klangkoerper/funkhausorchester/video-manhattan-transfer--orchestra-100.html
Best regards!
Louis Prima did a great cover of this essential Benny Goodman piece.
Louis Prima was the one who wrote and composed it first in the 1930s with his original band. Goodman's is the more famous cover version.
Favolosi...
Why do they not sing Chanson d'amour???? It's the song that made them well known in the UK!
1:40
Laurel Masse, Tim Hauser...
Hopefully the live show was reduced in tempo. Seemed a little rushed.
no body can stop old age...but watching them now they are a shadow of what they were....at their peak they were full of life and vitality.and were fabulous...but like many before they dont know when to call it a day....
Don’t really agree with you when listening to this performance. I think it’s beautiful and appropriate.
I did see them in Chicago Ravina before the pandemic and was somewhat disappointed.
They were fantastic for almost their entire career. They helped me learn the American Songbook. Thank you MT. You will be missed.
Unlike Trust Charles, Tim Hauser had a wider range and could sing very low (Bass). This circumstance spoils the impression and the overall _picture_ with the "updated composition".
Age really affected the original people's singing. The vocal blending is brutal. Oh please. Chanson no more!
no laurel masse and now no tim hauser thats not manhatten transfer
Im sorry but I can't stand this kind of music. Peace.
THIS SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED! THERE HAS TO BE LAWS PREVENTING SUCH GENIUS!!
I am 68 , and have been listening to Manhattan Transfer since my late teens.. IT DOES NOT COME BETTER THAT THIS !!
We're glad that you like it 😄
