Theater kids showed up and showed off!
fr
This is about memorial tho
@@myklorenzo87 yea she’s jus saying that their voices r rlly good
I got chills at the end!
Sho did
Whoever Rachel’s manager is doing wonders , she’s just been on 1 movie and she’s still everywhere , I like how they’re building her career
She's the future of Latinas. Plus, Spielberg already said that she's his Princess. She's set.
@@JenniferBrigitteOpticalVortex exactly , also a Disney princess movie and an action movie under her bealt , she is going places
@@Tarikkb it's so well deserved
What movie was she in
@@mss1923 west side story , she’s gonna be in shazam 2 , and she’s the new Disney live action snow white
The fact that every song they sang was a Sondheim song - a tribute within itself for the best ever to do it.
Could you name the songs for me pls
@@mithragunasekara9477 Not A Day Goes By from Merrily We Roll Along, Send In The Clowns from A Little Night Music, and Somewhere from West Side Story
@@smittenbean6266 thank you
@@mithragunasekara9477 No problem!
Yr
When Rachel started singing I started crying. I'm so proud of her 😭😭😭
I did as well.
Tears right now
4:36
still proud?
@@brendanconnellan yup
when 4 theatre kids come together to maximize their joint slay
Where are all those Rachel Zegler haters at now? She sang it perfectly!
I'm not even a devoted fan of her but it got to a point where the criticism became too annoying. Anywhere I went and looked up this girl, the comments section was filled with people complaining about one of her interviews and the movie not including dwarfs and etc. and etc.
she's perfect as snow white. That voice is just so...
Haha fully agree! They were treating her like a war criminal, it truly made no sense, it was kinda baffling. like are people THIS invested in snow white lol? And the people who are complaining are the ones that wouldn't even watch it a million years, so the death threats and vitriol seem so misplaced.
She can have a wonderful voice, be mis- cast as Snow, and be a douche canoe in interviews all at the same time.
Just because she’s amazing singer doesn’t mean she’s a decent person
@@calvinhobbesgatsby6869Just because she made a couple of comments over a hundred year old film doesn’t make her a bad person
rachel zegler is absolutely stunning my goodness that VOICE is unreal she's amazing
This needs to be studio recorded asap.
fr!!
I'm not a fan of some of the names of the departed receiving louder applause than others and some greeted with total silence - that is to say, the amount of applause your life receives being determined by your level of public or industry fame/popularity. People should either clap equally for every name or - more sensibly - shut up and listen to the beautiful in memoriam performance and clap for everyone at the end (which I've seen done at other ceremonies). This is about death, not reading off nominations for some award.
I agree. It should be completely silent.
i get it. however, some people’s time on this earth did, in fact, have more of an impact than others. i get the whole not wanting people to feel left out or being seen as not important, but in terms of impact on music, the names that received the applause were well deserved. it wasn’t just their popularity that earned them the applause, but their impact and the legacy they left behind.
I totally agree.
I agree. this isn't a high school graduation. They should all receive the same level of respect
@@kastlefilms3877 I don't think this is necessarily true. It's who THIS particular audience recognizes that get the biggest applause. For example, Marilyn and Alan Bergman wrote many amazing songs that have been sung by some of the greatest voices of all time and are part of the canon of Great American Songbook, but when Marilyn's picture came up, she got next to no applause with this crowd. I don't think she would have gotten the same reaction with a different crowd. Same for James Mtume. I can't even count how many rappers and singers have taken this man's songs to make hits of their own.
I'm a millennial, but I was fortunate enough that my parents raised me and my brother on all kinds of music of every genre, so I can recognize and appreciate the impact of artists from Marilyn Bergman to Biz Markie to James Mtume to DMX to Stephen Sondheim. They all got applause from me.
I turned to my partner and said “Broadway just stole the Grammy Awards.” It was a beautiful tribute with true singers. ❤️ 🎵
Absolutely!
💯
True singers? Gtfo 🤣.
What exactly are you objecting to?
@@reginarichards6261
Honestly, the Grammy’s just stole Broadway. This was so much better than the in memoriam at the Tony’s that year.
I loved that Rachel looked back at stephens picture with her hand on her heart.
OMG I thought I was the only one that noticed that 💕
Who is Stephen? Where ?
@@rgaming2024 Stephen Soundheim. He wrote west side story. His picture is shown behind them
@@genmcclain oh okay thanxx
@@genmcclainSondheim
Rachel walks out so confident next to two legends -- she’s got guts!! A true star! ⭐️
Who arranged/produced that? Because THAT was exemplary! That's what an "In Memoriam" segment should be. It was so beautiful, all of the performers are amazing, so touching, classy, and really heart-felt. I just love it.
Leslie Odom Jr.'s team produced, and Bruce Healy arranged.
Rachel Zeglars voice is beyond incredible!
everyone was amazing BUT THE SECOND RACHEL BEGAN TO SING ✨ and when they harmonized good lord
Rachel looks and sounds like a Disney Princess!! Disney chose right!
@Jackie Cvk Whoever you were that just replied to me. Rachel is literally polish which is the neighbouring country to Gemany. 2nd of all, snow white is not German, the author is, she's set in a fictional land. 3rd of all she looks EXATCLY like the animated version. 4th of all stop with the "i don't mean to be racist". 5th of all she's a white latina woman, so idk why you brung up race. & 6th of all, all those points don't even need to be there because she has all the qualities to play the character. Her and Halle Bailey as Ariel are the best castings Disney's ever made, because for one's they focused on the spirit of the characters instead of the physical appearance. She is the perfect Snow White. End of conversation. Maybe you realised how stupid the comment was and deleted it, proud of you.
thx for this comment. why does anyone care abt a race of someone??? blows my mind. this imo is the best thing disney has ever done. it’s a movie for crying out loud
@@scoot_gamingyt3080 right, it's embarrassing.
@@idaf3028 maybe they’re mad because she’s Jewish too and they’re going full Nazi 🙃
The late addition of Tom Parker who passed only four days prior was a very graceful last minute touch. We're all very appreciative of this, so thank you.
And Joey Jordison, Grammy winning drummer of Slipknot, was completely omitted despite having passed last July. No respect.
@@keyb1ademaster812 I agree, every year they miss out people in their 'In Memoriam' as do all of the big award ceremonies. It isn't fair that they pick and choose who goes in or not. However I am merely commenting on behalf of Tom's fans how much we appreciated that last minute touch.
I can't believe he died so young.
yup idk why but it meant a lot to see him up there ❤️
yess it was so nice of them
Once Rachel started singing “Somewhere” I lost it😭😭😭And the harmonies when they all joined in I- 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
This is one of the best things the Grammys has done in recent years
rachels voice is like heaven
The way Rachel looked back at Stephen at the end 😢
Such beautiful voices. All of them. The lady in the red dress is a vocal beast!
Her name is Rachel Zegler, she played Maria in West Side Story (2021).☺️
she will be the titular role Snow White
She has a beautiful voice..as we saw in West Side Story.....amazing voice. Cynthia Erivo, too, has an amazing voice as well, just watch a video of her singing at the Tony Awards, in the Color Purple. It will give you chills.
@@happyexpat3744 Yes! Both ladies are great talents! Cynthia always delivers, but I was a fan for life after she sang "A Piece of Sky" a few years back. The clip is on CZcams. Check it out!
@@blackbroadwayandbeyond Indeed, I have seen it! I saw her doing that Streisand song I believe at a MCC charity show for AIDS assistance and she smashed it. I love her, however, even more for singing "I'm Here" from "The Color Purple"...which was such an amazing performance and emotionally charged. Have a great day! Oh, have you seen her sing "The Impossible Dream" at the Kennedy Center? Amazing!
Cynthia Erivo’s voice is the sweetest of them all 🥺😍❤️
I was looking for a comment like this, she can sing! Even without a auto tune
She’s got a fantastic voice and she’s going to be playing in the Wicked movie.
Number 1
Rachel Zegler is a wonder. Oh my. Her voice brings me so much emotion.
if they’re going to clap they should clap for everyone
Black people always clap for Black people in solidarity and love. If other people weren't clapping... oh well.
@@musicallover8401 okay? you singled out the black people in the audience for what? ijbol
People were clapping for those they knew. Just because they didn't clap for specific people doesn't mean they don't respect them
@@mingan3781 obviously they’re clapping because they know the people. it’s still disrespectful but that’s just me i guess 😹😹 idc how y’all want to spin it
This happens with every in memoriam! They clap for the people they know.
Now this is the proper way to conduct an in memoriam segment! Incredible voices; beautiful attire; respect given to each and every name on the screen - thank you Grammys; please teach the Oscars
👆🏾 THIS! That Oscars in memoriam for 2022 was horrible. You couldn't even see the names and pictures of the people who were supposed to be highlighted most of the time thanks to the cameras showing the awful performance on stage.
@@blackbroadwayandbeyond exactly! The Oscars should learn from this example
I agree totally; however I miss hearing snippets of the deceased's songs like they did with this segment in past years.
This would be perfect for the Oscars - especially since all 4 are actors so it would make perfect sense as opposed to merely musician and choir people that no one knows
Imagine how Rachel felt doing this, especially when she was turning and glancing at Stephen Sondheim's picture at the end too. Must've been emotional.
plus she sang Infront pf her hero lady gaga
when rachel looked back to stephen after the performance, i just bawled
i come back to this every now and then!!! rachel sounds soo good 😭
Ending with sondheim finally had me in tears.
Amazing performance, beautiful tribute
This "In Memoriam" was better than the one at the Oscars that year.
Yep, that’s our lovely snow white! 🥹
Cynthia Erivo just carries every song she sings live. She is such a powerhouse
Ben Platt has a beautiful voice. Shame nepotism and entitlement in his car crash performance in the film 'Dear Evan Hanson' wiped it from my memory for a time.
Most people in Hollywood are there because of nepotism. He just made the mistake of leaning on it too much for the Dear Evan Hanson movie.
@@Sharpe1502 but the sheer arrogance and entitlement when his casting was criticised... He replied if it wasn't for him taking the lead the film wouldn't have got made. Oh if he could turn back time on that one.
@@Sharpe1502 I mean, a lot of people who still get in through nepotism still try and do a good job since it's not like nepotism is that uncommon.
@@mysoullovessoul558 I saw he’d said that. Definitely a misstep. Hopefully he learned from it and he bounces back. He’s a talented guy.
Jesus… get over it. One poorly worded of the cuff statement and you all want him destroyed. Get. Over. It.
This was a beautiful tribute. "The Grammy for Best Live Vocal Performance goes to ..."
rachel tho omg😍shout out to literally EVERYONE on her team. she has a golden globe, performed here, presented at the Oscars, and has 3 upcoming movies. literally proud mom 😂💕
One of the best In Memoriam segments I've ever seen.
Cynthia's voice tone is so beautiful
Still a bit disappointed that the Grammys did a better tribute to Sondheim’s music than the Tony’s. Great job Grammys.
This was astounding and why musical theatre performers are the best on the planet.
This is one of those moments that they'll use years from now when they talk about what a big impact Rachel had at such a young age. Performing with legends like Cynthia and Leslie already.
Ben's voice !!!!
I love how those musical actors showing some of the pop singers how to really sing.
There are pop singers who do know how to sing. You don’t have to criticize them in order to pay compliment to the musical theater singers
Gosh don’t think I’ve teared up like that since the first time I listened to Sondheim. Beautiful.
the first moment i heard this i couldn’t keep it together, hearing rachel with all the others i’ve grown up with made my theatre kid heart melt 😤 when they all joined in will be a moment il never forget
So beautiful, I think this is one of my favorite performances of all time…
That was beautiful! Perfectly sung, and perfectly arranged. And god bless Steven Sondheim.
one of the best sung SONDHEIM tributes...
Oh the harmonies are so incredibly beautiful
Two of my favorite voices. Leslie Odom Jr and Cynthia Erivo ladies and gentleman! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Outstanding together. Rachel's voice is astonishing. Just beautiful!
i love rachel so much
CYNTHIA AND SONDHEIM OMG, I’m so sorry, she’s singing my favorite song, I’m for sure not gonna remember any part of this other than that. And her outfit is in the traditional shape of pierrot, the “Sad clown” from old school commedia dell’arte, I am gonna cry
Yeah, my drama teacher brain had a happy aneurysm over her outfit. Just sooooo on pointe 👌🤌
@@jojob5170 I collect both clowns AND commedia dell’arte dolls, and while I have Pierrot dolls and vintage clown music boxes that play “send in the clowns”, now I REALLY need a mashup of those!
YES we LOVE commedia dell'arte
Still watching this. Beautiful.
This makes me sob no matter how many times I watch it
Rachel Zegler ate on a different level, Like WOW makes me cry every time🥹
Why am I only seeing this now??? I LOVE all of these singers SO MUCH!!!😮🥹😱🤯
all of them nailed it but omg rachel !!!!!! 😍
Rachel needs to sing with her idol Lady Gaga like now she’s got a beautiful voice
What a wonderful day to have ears.
The harmonies between Rachel and Leslie was something I did not know I needed until now. Loved Platt and Erivo as well but oh god their voices melted like butter or velvet or something.
the way Rachel soared during this performance
Is she an eagle? Lol
I came here to hear Rachel Zegler sing Somewhere
Rachel's voice makes me cry😭 she is sooooo talented!! Also tho Cynthia and Ben's blend *chef's kiss*
So emotional. What a beautiful arrangement. What beautiful voices. Ever proud to be a theater kid like these incredible folks. I could only wish I had half the talent. But none the less happy to come from the same place they have, like all of us theater kids have.
This absolutely broke me when I saw it the first time. West Side Story is just about my favorite piece of music ever written, and I hold Mr. Sondheim in just about the highest regard. The harmonies on Somewhere just really squeeze my heart.
Hasn't Betty White literally won a Grammy? I know it wasn't exactly for music, but it seems like quite a significant omission to exclude her since she did still receive the award
Plus, she's Betty White.
She was on the list. We didn't see everything that was shown there because we were focussing on the performers.
I'm so proud of Rachel ohmygod im crying right now that girl deserves the world
I usually don't pay attention to the songs, concentrating instead on the names and pictures, so I'm not too embarrassed that it took numerous viewings to realize the songs being performed for the In Memorium segment where all Stephen Sondheim songs.
The second the french horn started playing I was crying this is stunning
Rachel Ziegler is just fantastic...
when Rachel looked back to see Stephen omg :( this performance was amazing. I still think the audience should be silent through this performances but oh well, amazing nonetheless
The singers performing here were all absolutely tremendous! Especially that lady in the red dress...whoa! What a voice!
the one in the red dress is Rachel Zegler! she was only 19 in this performance!
BEAUTIFUL !!!! I MISS YOU MY DAVID....
I know this is a tribute to the ones we unfortunately lost for the past year but this was so good and I remember being emotional while watching it on stream so it became my second most favorite performance of that night, right after BTS' Butter performance. Cynthia, Leslie, Ben, and Rachel did well. Love them and rest in peace to those souls who passed away. 🤍🕊
why tf u gotta bring up bts tho that’s so annoying
this was the most memorable, most beautiful performance of the night. a real tear-jerker. give it up for the musical theater kids!
It feels like you watching a musical movie
This is a beautifully-produced segment. The best voices in the business right now.
Chills, what a beautiful powerful performance. Wow...
2:16 Ben platt sounds amazing
I cried like a baby💔 music is the most powerful tool
their voices are amazing
I got teary-eyed when they showed Dolph 😔🥺💔🐬💙🤍
I was so glad she got the last note. She was an amazing voice. She is so beautiful 😍
I want this recorded and on spotifyyyyy
this performance will never fail to make me ball my eyes out
I will never get over this performance. ❤😭
that was literally soooo.....ahhh!!! that's the drea team right there in my opinion. they're all so talented and they know how to blend and navigate their voices together so well! I got chills
All four singers nailed it. Stephen Sondheim would have been proud.
The blended harmony it is 😳😲 👏
I come here now and then when I need a good cry
I was waiting for them to post this! They sound so beautiful!
Absolutely BEAUTIFUL!!! GO CYNTHIA AND LESLIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
this performance was so stunning. some of my favorite vocalist singing together, YES!
The fact that it’s been over a year and this performance still brings me to tears
They are all so talented omg I love musical theatre
4:02 ay mi rey 💔 como te extraño.
This tribute was beautiful and no matter how many times I watch, I will always shed tears. Gorgeous song choices and lovely memories in the back.
The harmonic sweetness of all their voices dancing with one another as they drifted in "somewhere" 😢 was musical perfection.
This is what the Oscars should have done.
The Oscars was so weird this year
What is “this?”
such a beautiful tribute to sondheim
R.I.P. Stephen Sondheim
