Jazz Fly Me To The Moon

This is one of the most "touching" music videos I have ever seen. Her musicianship surpasses a lot of adults I have played gigs with over the years.

Wow, have to agree. She has remarkable voice control and proves that young children can sing in tune and with expression - just needs the right teacher. Cathedral choristers in this country start at around age 7.

I have mixed feelings when I see young people performing music to such a high standard. I'm willing to accept it's mainly down to my own pre judgements of what a kid should be doing in their formative Years and perhaps a little (lottle) bit of scepticism about a Parents 'plans' behind the advanced musicianship.But putting my own unfounded prejudices aside, it is quite extraordinary for anyone of any age. Not only to play that piece, but to sing at the same time.

What appeals to me the most is that her singing doesn't try to emulate the stylings of adult jazz vocalists the way many young singers are "coached" to perform. She sings the song like a "little girl" which is all the more charming.
