I grew up with my Grandmother playing the original soundtrack to NO NO NANNETTE and the original version brings back so many wonderful memories. My Grandmother introduced me to music, theater, museums she was truly like my own AUNTIE MAME!!!
Jason is tremendous and Rebecca shines.Just a perfect duet and the soft shoe?Well that was the icing on the sugar cake.When I listen to this and watch them dance my heart sings.
Actually, I've never smoked a cigarette in my life. Just over excited! However, I'm very proud of this and it was an incredible experience being Rebecca Luker's BF for 5 minutes!
Mr. Graae, you have every right to be proud of your performance, certainly if it had been me I know I would. It is also obvious that you've had voice training and that unfortunately as a performer you must suffer the slings and arrows of the arm chair expert.
Marvelous rendition and performance; Jason Graae's tenorship is extraordinarily flawless in this beautiful rendition. Of course Rebecca Luker's act is phenomenal too. Thank you for this great gift from you two, Jason Graae and Rebecca Luker.
Just celebrated my 80th birthday and I've been listening to popular music since I was three. This is one of the most unique and perfect songs ever written.
This came up today on a post on FB. I love it because it is the day after her husband, Danny Burstein, just won a Tony award. RIP and your beautiful voice Becca. In memoriam.
We’re learning the soft shoes for this dance in my musical theatre class, and I’m so glad I found this song! It’s great to hear the classics of this time! The singing is phenomenal!
Wonderful! My Mum used to sing to me all these No No Nanette songs when I was a young girl, she was in a 1948 production in London and I was trying to find one that sounded like the one my Mum sang to me and this one is it ☺️
I played Nanette back in 1993. The director and choreographer kept telling me, "Simple and sincere Catherine!" They were right. I definitely like this rendition.
I checked the comments and did not see anyone note that there is a CD with these performers. It's called Broadway Showstoppers. It's on Angel records. Included is "Who", "All the Things You Are" and a bunch of other numbers. Such a pity John McGlinn died so young.
An absolutely charming duet! Jason Graae and Rebecca Luker are wonderful together in this 1990 Boston Pops rendition of a 1925 classic. My heart leaps with joy and sings with every viewing! Thank you Jason and Rebecca.
This is so nice to hear somebody sing nice and clearly with the beginning bits as well. I like this very much I think it is simpal without pushing themselves too much
At the end of this performance in 1990 on PBS Great Performances what is missing is the cherubic face of John McGlinn looking as if he had just seen God. Indeed, the camera shots that followed of the audience rising in unison, were a tribute to the perfection of this performance.
that I watch this in 2016 coming to it so often for a fix imo speaks volumes. Mr .Graae is a talented vocalist amazingly deft on his feet and an amusing partner to the equally entertaining Rebecca Luker. When I need a respite from the cold world, I find it here. Thank you xxoo
The interaction between Jason and Rebecca during this performance adds that sparkle that makes watching this video and listening to the music so enjoyable. I think I would be gasping for air, Jason, if I had to perform with such a charismatic female singer as Rebecca and not just with that tiny bit of excitement that you so aptly expressed. Well done! And thank you May for posting.
beautifull!! que hermosa interpretacion, la orquesta es fabulosa, los cantantes con una voz y un dominio del escenario maravilloso, ella da la sensacion de estar enamorada y eso la hace mas bella aún, gracias por deleitarnos con esta bellisima cancion
IN another epoch she would have been the top draw in any musical. She is a world class star! She radiates joy and beauty and more joy. And she never breathalizes melissmatically!
I hate to admit this,but this version of Tea for Two is much better than the version sung by my hero Doris Day. Was this done on PBS? If so,what was the name of this show on PBS?
It really bothers me that Rebecca Luker is dead. I met her at Studio 54 on a Saturday night 2019 or 2018 as she performed with a former female teacher.. I walked up to her and told her the best duet I ever heard was the one she did for PBS with Jason Grae. She was very moved and hugged me I walked away and said nothing else because I did not want to interfere since her teacher was on stage doing a solo. To watch here do her rendition on RUclips of "All I ask for" with the Mormon Tabernacle Choir always brings me to tears. It's very difficult to understand,but I knew a long time ago God works in mysterious way. I miss Rebecca Luker.
my GOD that is so cool, super nice! im 24 years old but that is one the best i ever saw. Those people who cklick they didn't like it, i think they are not humans maybe?
This was performed at Symphony Hall in Boston on August 23, 1990, and it is unofficially known as Boston Pops - Broadway Originals. This was televised by PBS, and so there are no authorized DVDs available. The guest conductor was John McGlinn, and the event was hosted by Kitty Carlisle. Why on earth didn't Rebecca Luker take up dancing?
thank you Dimitri. I watch this performance regularly. When I need a bit of charm, whimsy and polish. Graae and Luker never let me down . Just as superb in 2016.
Such a good old song. I always associate the tune with Django Reinhardt's guitar version, but to hear the song proper is good. This recording is on an album called Broadway Showstoppers and it has the original theatre poster from the play (i.e. musical) it came from on the front cover. The play was called 'No, No, Nanette' (1925).
Great arrangement by John McGlinn who spent much of his life seeking out the original arrangements of Broadway music. His masterpiece was the recreation of Showboat in its original format that was recorded 1988. For those interested, the complete performance of the concert in which this McGlinn version of “Tea for Two” appeared is on the RUclips video, “Evening at Pops, Broadway Originals.”

he sucks! he's no where NEAR Ms Luker's quality of singing!
Well kerryincolumbus, and you know this because?
sure she carries him, but he"'s not so bad imo
Four minutes and forty-seven seconds of understated perfection. So nice to see this classic song come to life.
Just celebrated my 80th birthday and I've been listening to popular music since I was three. This is one of the most unique and perfect songs ever written.
What a class act. What talent. Thank you. ❤️❤️❤️
And it SO romantic which slays me... The singing while dancing! Is off the chain lol...Thats entertainment! Thats Talent.. Thats ART...
The beauty of this makes me cry every time..This is the best of the best. I *so wish I could sing like him...

Hello Amy
How are you doing today?
We’re learning the soft shoes for this dance in my musical theatre class, and I’m so glad I found this song! It’s great to hear the classics of this time! The singing is phenomenal!
Great music never dies.
What a delightful video. Two very talented vocalists, singing a classical song. 🥰👍
Wonderful! My Mum used to sing to me all these No No Nanette songs when I was a young girl, she was in a 1948 production in London and I was trying to find one that sounded like the one my Mum sang to me and this one is it ☺️
I've search far and wide for the "right" version of this song.
I think I've found it!
My mother and father taught me this song when I was a little girl. What a beautiful song.
Hello Susan
How are you doing today?
Jason, this is absolutely delightful, lovely, superb!
I played Nanette back in 1993. The director and choreographer kept telling me, "Simple and sincere Catherine!" They were right. I definitely like this rendition.
A wonderful reminder of kinder, gentler times from two class acts.

Merci beaucoup from Paris France 👍.
Thank you for this wonder song, Jason you have a great Broadway Tenor. I has to order the CD. I grew up on this great music..
Jason Graa and Rebecca Luker... both utterly charming and fabulous.
At the end of this performance in 1990 on PBS Great Performances what is missing is the cherubic face of John McGlinn looking as if he had just seen God. Indeed, the camera shots that followed of the audience rising in unison, were a tribute to the perfection of this performance.
La Grande Vadrouille brought me here.
And I’m glad it did, what two wonderful singers 😊.

What a jolly good performance all round. Great vocals and a well directed orchestra. This is a show tune and they're playing the circle.
You just keep that stuff up folks!!! entertainment to the max... feel sorry for the young folks who have no clue!!!!!!!!!
Beautifully done. Thank you both Jason and Rebecca

Agreed. Beauty, voice, grace, warmth, totally awesome
by far the best interpretation imo. and the soft shoe ...loving this still in sept 2017, whenever the world presses down on me.xxoo
How am I only finding this jem of lucky the leprechaun singing tea for two
I am just about to turn 80 very soon, this is the kind of American music l have always loved 🤗

"We won't have it known dear that we own a telephone" .. Imagine that today.? 😁
Fantastic performance, lovely orchestration and a very catchy melody indeed!
What a delight!
Beautiful!!!

Excelente!!!!!:-)
She just takes your breath away..
Это просто прекрасное произведение. Что, удивлены? Да, русские тоже это любят и слушают. Лично я узнал из фильма "Большая прогулка" Франция.
I just stumbled upon this .. wow .. some great performance
Fabulous! Truly enjoyed seeing this again!
this is beautiful !!!!!!!!!! Love from Mexico
Original orchestration, yes, and the vocal style recalls earlier decades as well. Excellent overall.
Thank you. Your performance is so nice and brings me à lot of pleisure.
Great song, great performers. Many thanks for uploading - will now search for the CD.
This is wonderful!
What a sweet little song!
Had no idea of the entire song, or the fact that it was from 1925.
Amazing! I love that! ♡
Great to hear the second verse. I never realized it existed.
Para mim é uma surpresa ouvir esta adorável e celebre canção de 1925. Gosto !! Mas, DORIS DAY é sempre a Doris Day, e ela está no meu coração !!!
I just had to watch this again... fun thank you!
Merci monsieur duslster de m'avoir fait découvrir cette musique mdr il se souvient surment plus de moi sa fait 6 ans.

Mr. Baez ,they are sadly ,very human beings. It takes a full measure of the divine to appreciate this performance. xxoo
thanks some people don't have an idea of what is good.
Like it ? Great
Outher have others taste In music

Dimitri Diamant, so RUclips is the only place to get this magnificent musical representation
I have been looking for excerpts from this program forever! Thank you for sharing them!
steven cates m
Esa magnifica interpretacion. Nos hace sonar.Preciosa Rebecca y excelente Jason.Gracias por tan bello recuerdo
Rest In Peace Rebecca!!❤️❤️
This song is so sweetly romantic it makes me nostalgic for a life I have never known 🥲
Beautiful
During the early years of The Great American Songbook '1925, this song is a 24/7 global kick in every sense of the expression......
Grossartig! Ich kann keine Worte finden, um meine Begeisterung zu äußern!
Rest in peace Rebecca! Thank you very much!
Sencillamente esplendoroso
Aaaaaaaaa thanks for marvelous video ❤️
I love this music
Even with a couple of glitches , this is a wonderful video. Thanks for posting it.
mcp
it's definitively a heavenly song besides being eternal
a shining example.Thank you.)O(

Ópera de oro del cine que ellos tiempos
Delightful.
There is also a version of the song " tea for two " to laugh in a movie with Louis De Funès and Bourvil.I shall share it with my friends of GOOGLE+
La Grande Vadrouille, One of few French films China imported in the early 80s that almost everyone watched. The Turkish Bath scene was memorable.

QUE EN PAZ DESCANSE LA GRAN REBECCA LUKER.
Merci la grande vadrouille de m'avoir fait decouvrir ceci
Adoro questa canzone e il balletto
My father's favorite in his late teens of late 30's then on 78rpm in all homes.
Film különlegesség 1925-ből ! Színes és hangos !!!
Love is inexplicable, there is more room to blossom
Doesn't take me to paradise as fast as a good Highland Fling..but it's close!
old song but ever green
so, so, so schön!!!!
Прекрасный полет эмоций
Mi tema favorito tea for two
Doris and Gordy did this beautifully in the early 1950s
MUST SEE Rebecca Luger and Douglas Sills do "Thou Swell"! It's better than anything! Speak of sublime....
Bravo!
Great arrangement by John McGlinn who spent much of his life seeking out the original arrangements of Broadway music.

Совершенно великолепная музыка
I'm just enthralled with this.Can anyone give me more information on when and where this was performed.Superb performance.
it's definitively heavenly song
besides being eternal
WOW!!
Es ist erstaunlich, dass Bild und Ton so gut, bei einer Aufnahme von 1925, erhalten sind - Danke.
Egon, diese Aufnahme war nicht 1925 sondern 1990 in Boston. 1925 ist das Datum der Komposition „Tee für Zwei“
@@RobiBue Danke
