Actual vocal jazz ensemble music! ❤️
Love both groups :) wish I could meet all of y’all
Accent Vocal Yes!! This is super amazing!!
Two amazing groups supporting one another. This is what’s it’s about!!
The trio line from Ornithology at 1:54 is just *chef's kiss*
That’s Ella’s scat! Who/What is Ornithology?
How on earth have I missed this group ? Utterly phenomenal , WOW !!
The bassist is just a machine, I'm convinced of it
As a long time listener of The Real Group, I am very happy to find this… the next generation of vocal jazz and a cappella excellence.
Same. I have missed the Original Real Group, but these guys are a great find.
I really liked the part that went:
"skidally didally skidally didally skidally didally skidally didally scoo BOP! Ba doo BOP! Ba didally goom ka doom ka Flip florp Flip blorp Clip-clorp
devandeyandevadayundevandeydooyadeyah
DADAT!
DA DAT!
..DUT!
....DrrrrrrrUT!
Skidallydit! Skidallydit! Skidallydit! Skidallydo bop ba da dup BOW!"
It just resonates with me.
Michael Schindlbeck this is an incredible transcription
I think it's actually "devandeyandedadeyandevadeyandooyadeyan"
It's a bit hard to make out, though.
Best comment
I prefer the part where he goes:
DAT!
DADAT!
DRRRRRRAT!
*collapses into the floor*
Manhattan Transfer meets Les Paul meets Cleo Laine. All greats of my childhood. Loved it
such a great arrangement and production!
I *LOVE LOVE LOVE* how you did Ella’s scat *note for note* in the middle, but you also put your own twist on the song with the Latin rhythm. I wish Ella was still here to listen; I think she would be extremely impressed.
Realistic sound,clean arrangements ,pure bland you are my favourite group 10/10
stay safe, HIGHLINE. my utmost respect in your great musicianship and artistry.
Incredibly stunning💯🇺🇸🌹🌎🌍🌏
Enthusiastic, youthful, like a fresh air! Ella is smiling from the heaven :)
Waaaooow!!!! The roof's off the house!!! Great harmonies. And bass does a nice pedal going into retro at the end. Great job guys!!!!
Brilliant with great harmonising and so lively I love it
I adore this. Fun concept with the first rehearsal cutaways bookending the performance, which was stellar and gleeful and silly. MOAR!
I can't get enough of these five!!!. I've seen the video around seven times😮. Apart from the obvious musical excellence, the chemistry and charm of them is impressive. (Particularly -- sorry -- Alyssa 💐).
Fabulousellentastic ! With a million versions of How High the Moon out there, this is so fresh, so smart, so exciting . It's a genius piece of work ! Congratulations and thank you.
I fully agree! 🤳👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Vert nice guys, I think Les Paul and Mary Ford would be proud. You guys are really very talented. sound great together
Wonderful!!!🤳👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 Fresh, new, creative, perfect vocal ensemble🎉
I've just known this vocal group.Admirable voices,no doubt.I feel very happy for your great contribution to jazz.
I found this on Facebook the other day. I can't stop listening now!
Love your arrangements and your singing --- have been watching all your videos. My fave so far is your rendition of "The Nearness of You" at night on the NYC balcony --- phenomenal, so beautiful! My husband Ray Korns is a super admirer too!
YES, I agree that’s their best song! That love ballad literally made this bearded man weep!
Thank you You Tube for Highline!They are unbelievable!
Loving these guys … very talented. Just listened to VOCTAVE in concert and boy … LOVING Highline!
Haven't heard such a wonderful tribute to Ella's amazing scat since New York Voices! Love it!
Another NYV fan! I like you already!
It's so nice to see young people doing this music.
Very cool, great arrangement and voices, nice!
Excellent and full of life !!!!! Shows you what the best of humans can do !!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yaaaaaaaaas. Great British Baking Show's Paul Hollywood... Pandemic (board game)... Vocal Jazz?!?! All the best things! Also one of my favorite standards! Super amazing arrangement!
Crushing this, as always.
Wow!! As a semi-professional ensemble member, your songs and arrangements just have it all!! I love the eclectic choices from “Danny Boy” to modern jazz and scat... I’m a new fan and loving it! The ability to scat all together is quite a skill. Bravo!!
The perfection of this vocal group is unbelievable and particularly this song the old Les Paul Mary Ford tune
You guys are great! I knew the Hi-Lo’ & the original vocal jazz groups!
The very best version of this song. Kisses from French Guyana
I jumped out of my chair when I realized you sambafied it
We sang this in my college vocal jazz ensemble, but not nearly as fun an arrangement as this. Well done!!
This is The Example of how to arrange, how to perform & what it means to become a magnificent musician. Astounding
Highline is now my new favorite! Magaling! 🇵🇭
This ensemble features some very creative and talented ladies. Cheers!
Absolutely amazing! harmonies superb, scatting and the arrangement is genius. Brings a new meaning to "self-contained" group... WOW!
Great to know there will always be good music, vocal is the best instrument :-)
Voice is the best instrument, indeed.
Boy, it'd be so great to hear this before all the computer audio "correction". So many sharp corners on the production leave me feeling like there's something you don't like about the way vocal groups, just...sing...together. I know, everybody does it. It's just us old folks, but to me, this is the vocal equivalent of Bro Country.
I think in the modern day, Vocal editing/correction is a necessary step in everything but live recordings, if you want to compete with those who are using it. I'm super into Barbershop, and believe me, I get where you're coming from. When you get that perfectly ringing chord on a tag and the overtones show up there's nothing in the world like that sound, and computers haven't gotten there yet to reproduce it because of the precise tuning of Barbershop music. However, because of that, nobody in barbershop is using pitch correction, so they're all on the same playing field. It's different in the majority of modern music styles and I consider vocal jazz relatively modern. I'm sure that the older guys would've done that type of Vocal editing too if it had been around and commonly used when they were young, or else they likely would have been less popular than people who did. However, there's a tasteful way to do it, and I think Highline was pretty good about keeping it tasteful in this recording. Lumping the tasteful and non-tasteful recordings together is just unreasonable. When it's tasteful, I think you're better off enjoying the music than actively listening for the production involved!
Yesssss!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 😊😊👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👍👍🎵🎵❤❤⭐⭐Jazzy greetings from Brazil!
You sound like The Real Group! AWESOME!
How did I miss this one? So much fun, great job!
Великолепный вокал!! Пофессионалы- просто супер!! Класс!!!
Manhattan Transfer without instruments. Stunning!
This is literally the best thing i've ever seen. You all are incredible musicians and collaborators, and I often use your videos to teach vocal jazz to my kiddos in class :)
You teach a vocal jazz class? Like at an actual school?
@@PockASqueeno hi! No! I teach about vocal jazz and different types of singing in my general music class. Thanks for the question :)
Nice arrangment!!!! Nice dynamic!
Heaven, Thank God for vocal Jazz, I really dig your vibe.
Every time I think you guys can't make me love you more, you do something like this
I hope this channel explodes someday. That was absolutely fantastic. 👌
That is a feeling of passion and creativeness.
A fabulous mix of styles with an underlying Jazz feel. Excellent work.
Fabuleux ! J'adore.❤🔥💞

What a beautiful group!!! Thank you, guys!!!
BRAVO!
Lots of fun! Tremendous arrangement and great performance! More please!
My gracious. This is simply fantastic! It’s a shame that this channel is not more followed.
Mind Blown
I've been a vocal jazz fan since the HiLos and the Freshmen and especially Singers Unlimited, and the five of you are right up there in the top ranks. Now when does the CD come out so I can listen away from the computer? Best to you -- keep swingin'.
They’ve become my second favorite group now, second only to the New York Voices.
This is beyond amazing!!!!
Completely blown away! LUUURVE!!
You guys bought a Real Book I see! Well done!
Amazing !!!🎉🎉🎉
In 2 words- super superb. The Hi-Lo’s, Singers Untilited & MT have left vocalese in great hands. More!
I’ve been waiting for some more Highline!
Thank you so much, for giving us a reason to smile with such a beautiful jam! C’:
❤✨
Magnificent! Well Done! Brilliant!
