  • Shot with my small Canon S90, hidden in brushes, top of trash cans, balancing on tree branches and from inside my purse I was able to shoot this video without any ones help. It was my first trip to New York City and I wanted to capture every minute of it

    Thank you so much for this...here in 2022. Blossom evokes my Manhattan
    so perfectly. Pure Class..The city as I remember it.

    Blossom sings this song like she doesn’t want it to end and if you love New York you don’t want it to end either.

    Cleverly done. Like the Black and White video giving it the retro look of the 30's and 40's. Good taste in your music pick, a Rodgers and Hart 1930's classic played by the best cabaret/jazz performer.

    This singer reminds me of an era where audiences were prepared to be charmed and prepared to listen to extraordinary artists such as Blossom Dearie. Minimal Amplification/Jazz Piano= Enchanting result. Reserved,Dignified and sheer class.

      Within my lifetime actually - thinking of Marion Montgomery, Cleo Laine, Mel Tormé, but this time is over unfortunately. But we have the recordings.

    Very nice
    Blossom brought me to here...I think she REALLY captures a mood that depicts Manhattan...probably on a lazy sunday, which is seldom exposed...It seems to be typically typified as hustling and bustling , whereas Blossom....

    No. thank you for introducing her to others who might not otherwise have known about her. I knew her when I was very young in London, she introduced me to jazz at the Ronnie Scott's club. I lost contact but will always remember her as a great artist and a wonderful human being. Thank you Blossom.

    This jazz lullaby was photographed perfectly by you. You should shop this around some of the satellite channels for use as a video. This work of yours is lovely. It matches Blossoms singing and adds to it. I've seen this video of yours several times before leaving a comment now. I'm going to watch your others. You may have found your calling.

    I found your most excellent video this morning in the middle of a rediscovering Blossom Dearie binge that began Saturday night. I'm deeply fond of Manhattan and Miss Dearie. With your hand held B&W and the music, you've posted a beautifully sophisticated valentine. My first NY show officed in Olympic Towers the skyscraper seen just behind St. Patrick's Cathedral near the end of your essay. Many thanks.
