We lost this icon yesterday, January 23, 2022. She shone through until her last breath, and now she can play forever. Thanks for the songs, memories, and lovely times you shared with us.

I am 81, and I am listening jazz last almost 70 years. I never heard - until now- about this lady, but I like her playing very much. ( Please, apologie my bad english. Greetings from Prague.)

I was a young recording engineer in Nashville during the 80s and worked with Beegie and her husband Billy frequently. They were both excellent musicians. More importantly, they were genuinely nice people. They were classy, with a cool and sophisticated edge that made them stand out from the rest of us. Billy called her “Beeg” and I always loved hearing him say “hey Beeg” during our recording sessions. If you love Beegie’s music, I hope that you will love it even more by knowing what a kind, companionate, and wonderful person that she really was.

When someone talks this well on the piano you want them to keep the conversation going all day. Smashing Trio :)

I've been listening to different variations of "Autumn Leaves" for a long long time, but I can say that this is the best live one I've ever listened! Played very softly, filled with emotions. Now whenever I listen to other Autumn Leaves I can't resist coming back for this.

With a heavy heart, i just read from one of the many comments about Beegie Adair has gone last January of last year 2021. Her music will linger on and keep listening to her wonderful rendition of timeless music of all times. Thank you Beegie for your excellent music. May you rest in peace.

I too am a late discoverer of Beegie's music. Her smooth jazz style lifts my spirits. She's my favourite jazz pianist. God bless her and all of you.

So very sad to learn Beegie has left us. RIP Beegie your beautiful music will stay forever.

So I'm a 17 year old, just a normal girl but for piano classes I have to play autumn leaves with just chords and melody in front of me. I never had done jazz before or really listened to it. I mostly listen to Kpop, pop, rap, hip hop and r&b music. I am glad they let me play jazz for the first time because now I can finally taste the beauty of Jazz music and get inspiration for my first ever jazz piece!

Beegie is about the smoothest jazz pianist I've seen in a long time.

Beegie had such an unbelievable quality to her playing! She was a master at making the piano talk to its audience!Such talented lady who I for one would have loved to have recorded with! R.I.P. Beegie and thank you for sharing your special love of music.❤❤ Dr Julie

Drummer was imaginative and had touch. So sorry we lost this lovely pianist.

When I turned 21 in the mid 60s, this is the style of music you heard in nearly every cocktail lounge. I love it.

I hated this music when I was a kid, but now I love it. This is music. What's on the radio these days is a crime.

Oddly, her songs came on my utube a few minutes ago and Autumn Leaves was the first. My parents were musicians, and played this song often. So appropriate for Oct 2 2022. It is as if,her spirit is still here. I played Bessie Mucho in High School Concert and Marching band. I played clarinet. My brother played drums. My parents were very talented musicians, unfortunately, they didn't become famous but we grew up with almost every instrument and had music lessons from age 5 years old. So we were taught to learn and appreciate all musical genres as well as instruments,as well as the musicians singers. This is certainty a sentimental song for me,because my mother passed in September, 1997 and we found so much of her sheet music and of course, Autumn Leaves was in the group. My brother got all the sheer music, because, he plays in a band. My children and grandchildren, each took music lessons and I can proudly say,they each play an instrument. Her last video ,she was 83 and died shortly. after. She is Missed I hope she has children to carry on her legend and legacy May she have had a peaceful transition. I like to think she may have met my parents and all the musicians who went before her. I got emotional listening to her,today.It is. like she and my parents and all the musicians in my family and who were my parents friends, came together today to honor Ms.Begie. Adair.

This was played beautifully by all three musicians. Great rhythm and space. RIP Beegie.

ah every time i listen to this it makes me feel warm and fuzzy inside, imagining what life would be in some distant village in a wooden house in front of a fireplace with a blanket on, a cup of tea/glass of wine in my hands and snow falling slowly outside. Or in another reality - in some secret restaurant or cafe, wearing a shiny 80-s style dress, sitting in the corner around a tiny table with the man I deeply love, having amazing conversations and then dancing in the middle of the restaurant. Music is what makes us live other lives, truly

She will be missed but her music is forever!

I'm so sad to hear she is no longer with us, but her music will be with us forever.

I loved this. Only just discovered her and her trio. Knocked out. Beegie weaves jazz magic from the simplest tune. Never over the top. So tasteful !! Thanks alot.

Amazing! Made me smile to myself thinking, "How beautiful life is with music!"

What a comfortable and sophisticated performance!! I love Beegie Adair Trio!!

Her playing was so beautiful...it moved me to tears.

May she Rest in Eternal Peace, knowing she was truly loved and admired by everyone she ever met. This selection of Autumn Leaves is so beautiful. Love this immensely. Thank you for sharing this with us.

The piano is just absolutely phenomenal. I'm not even the biggest Jazz fan but her timing, swing, dynamics are just beautiful. Truly great performance.

This woman is phenomenal...... best arrangement of Autumn Leaves I’ve heard!

👼🙏One word to describe Beegie is "Greatness" and TY from the bottom of your fans as it was a pleasure to grace us with your music for many of years . Rest In Peace as God gained another musical resident.💐❤️

I am 28, and I love this. Jazz and specifically this Musical piece, it has given me so much, happiness, rejoicing, hope, longing for love and life. I am fascinated. greetings from Mexico

This would have to be the so loveliest version to cry over for my late darling Joy. She would have just loved it too - 12 years ago!

Fantastic playing. I can't count how many times I've been replaying this. This is so good. I am 32 yo maybe I am just an old soul 😂.

LOVELY!! my favorite jazz version, that touches your soul!! RIP beautiful Beegie, you made the world a better place with your amazing music. God Bless your soul . We miss you, but your music will inspire many and lives forever~We love you♥

Since I first heard Her about 5 years ago she has been and still is my Favorite! R.I.P. BEEGIE.

Grandma is an artist at work on that piano, those old fingers sing pure experienced jazz.

Gotta love how she "owns' her piano... wonderful!

Yes like you I had never heard of Beegie Adair, she is a wonderfully tasteful pianist and the whole trio are a joy to listen to.

I watched this video many times and always enjoyed it. I've been thinking I want to listen to Beegie live one day, and I read someone's comment saying "RIP Beegie".... She passed away this past Sunday. I am so sad and heartbroken. Thank you for the wonderful music Beegie. Rest in peace, ma'am.

This lady is something else with that piano.

This is a very sad music, memories of losing the loved one, and she played so beautifully

This lady has soul and talent.

RIP Beegie. Thank you for being such a vibrant rennaissance woman.

Tears, my eyes teared up listening to this, they are all gifted, but she is the master. Thank you so much.

Understated, silky, smooth and a great sound to a great song. What more could you ask for this is what good jazz should sound like.

Magnificent! My first time hear this amazing ensemble. Another “best kept secret!” Love them!

Sorry to have discovered her so late - thankfully her legacy of great arrangements have been preserved

Always love to listen to someone who can play the piano like she does.......amazing

Where has she been all my life? Absolutely brilliant.

The best version of this song I have heard so far.

This Beegie Adair Trio gives me a relaxed and calm feeling in both my body and mind. It's a very Great threesome ! A great pianist, a perfect double bass and a great drummer. All in all, I give a big 10 for this fantastic Jazz concert and also for the many musical numbers they play in the Jazz area. This is certainly a great instrumental trio.

Oh my God! What a marvellous ensamble and harmonious music sounds . It’s a wonder

Thank you KZfaq for letting me hear this lady play some of the coolest jazz I've heard in a long time. (Dave Brubeck excepted :) )

Beegie Adair is a musical giant and needs to be heard more often.

10-5-2022 this video keeps repeating so maybe everyone listening to play her songs as a tribute to her. She passed this last Jan.2022. My. parents were musicians and singers and artists, so her music is so special. This song is very sentimental to me because my mother passed in September, 1997 and me and my siblings still play her own composed music. She played piano and organ. My father played every instrument. My siblings, children and grandchildren are all musicians, singers artists so memories are beautiful I truly miss Ms.Adiar and trying to get her albums. Thank you Utube for not forgetting her among the great pianist and musicians. Thank you to my Entire family, who taught me and my siblings to appreciate all. if The Arts and diversity of genres I miss them All this is a beautiful song and very sentimental but happy memories. I would have liked to have metMs.Adair and her husband and band. My parents were concert musicians but played all genres. This song and so many of Ms.Adair keeps my parent's spirits close. Listening to Ms.Adair is as if she is here in my home,along with my parents and their musician friends. What a beautiful way to begin October. Thank You

I cannot leave without leaving comments. This is the best piano playing Autumn Leaves. I really enjoyed, thanks. From Seoul.

The greatest performances are those that challenge our biased patterns of recognition and stand out like a complete surprise. Looking at these three you might not expect much, but then you’re treated to this absolute jewel of an interpretation on a classic theme! I loved how she casually looked at that note (an autumn leaf) in the middle of the performance, too. Precious stuff.

This lady has a way of making you feel the love she's playing with, She plays with love and it doesn't get any better than that!

In 2022, I never heard about them since now! A simple great trio. Thanks guys!

Can't get enough of this rendition. Such timing and phrasing, so perfect.

1:30 that transition from just piano and bass to all of them together playing the main melody is just amazing Took me by suprise but gave me chills!

Unfortunately, I just learn BG past away in January last…she his the most talented pianist I ever heard in my life. She plays standards like anybody else. She is smooth, involved and a master in her class. Most of all, she keeps remembering me, my mother, who has been also a wonderful pianist, and a great lover of music from the 30’ the 40’ the 50’… Cheer’s to these wonderful women who have made me a better man… RF

Love her sound, she provokes a feeling of love.

That lady knows her stuff, she sounds amazing 😍

For me, When Beegie is playing it's like "God's in his heaven and all's right with the world". There's no one better!!!

We may have lost you, but we have your music… Rest In Peace 🙏💕

Absolutely Absolutely Brilliant and Beautiful 👏👏👏👏👏

Emotional, talented, timeless 🎶🎵❤️

I've had the pleasure of hearing the Beegie Adair Trio live three times in London. Such artistry and such a wonderful sound.

I’m sorry to hear that… now she has heaven to listen to her music… Rest In Peace with the angels… and thank you for the beautiful music🎶🎶🎶💕🙏🦋🌹🥰

May you rest in peace Beegie.... your music will live on.... I listen to it every day!♥♥♥♥♥

Marvelous version, what a pianist! thank you! Hope you are all safe and we will soon stand for our rights to go back to these wonderful places!

I could spend every day of my life just listening and feeling

I only discovered her a few years ago but I listen to Beegie a lot. Love her ........

I just found this beautiful, relaxing music. wow! it's so classy & I'm enjoying it daily❤ new 74 yr old fan from Hawaii 🏝🌊☀️

don't know how many times I've listened to this. so beautiful!

The best version of this classical masterpiece.

HER RENDETION OF "FLY ME TO THE MOON", IN MY OPINION, IS THE VERY BEST I'VE EVER HEARD, PERIOD! WHAT A GREAT LOST TO THE JAZZ MUSIC WORLD! RIP BEEGIE!

I so loved her. May she rest in God's eternal peace.

The most emotional "Autumn Leaves" I believe.Fantastic!

incomparable, classy, genius. Long lives.

She lives FOREVER!!! all those amazing recordings and video we have to treasure forever! Playing some lovely tunes in Heaven - RIP Beegie we will miss you. xx

A lovely harmonious arrangement masterfully played by a very talented lady.

I can't imagine such effortless perfection.

The best jazz piano performance of Autumn Leaves on the internet.

Beegie one of a kind! I love her music... I cannot have enough.... !

A beautiful jazz pianist, so sad she has left us.. Not many can play like her now!

It's hard not to fall in love with Beegie Adair.

На подобных импровизациях и должен держаться классический джаз! Ёмко, весомо, хороший фон для философских раздумий. Спасибо!

Excellent performance. Beegie Adair Trio is my favorite in New York City...This Jazz music is forever...!!!!

She just passed away. The world has lost a great talent! The music literally ooozed from her fingers! And her band!!?? Incredible. Wish I could have heard them live!

Soothing to the human soul. Jazz is a gift from the Heavenly Above!

I am addicted to this lady’s fantastic musical style. I listen to her on Spotify on my headphones.

What a brilliant version of one of my favourite songs. So sensible performed by all of the three. Great!

What a beautiful rendition of Autumn Leaves 💖.

Beegie Adair speaks, reads, interprets, and plays beautiful music as naturally and easily as a poet speaks, reads, interprets, and writes poetry. She's incredible.

Oh my God, I cannot get over how beautiful this sounds.I have heard lots of versions of Autumn Leaves, but this one...

This is a masterpiece

I have just learned of this Lady and I absolutely love her! I am immediately a fan. And I am So Sorry, I just learned that she passed away in January 2022. What a great loss! I would have LOVED to have met her. Her talent and gifting was very moving and I Absolutely enjoyed her to the fullest, especially me being a musician (keyboardist) myself. God Bless your memory, Ms. Adair.

This absolute gem of an interpretation of this composition almost had me in tears... I'd never even ever heard of Beegie Adair before last week!

Drummer and bassist needs to be mentioned as superb musicians as well. Plus the base has an excellent deep sounding tone great instrument.

Loved Beegie’s music so much. RIP, Beegie.

Bill Evans, Michel Petrucciani and her. My favorite jazz pianists. I’ve got all of their records so I’m set for life.
