Tiny Desk (at Home) Concert – No Treble

NPR doesn’t post many Tiny Desk (At Home) concerts these days, but I’m glad they made an exception with this one.

Milton Nascimento and Esperanza Spalding recorded this one to perform music from Milton + esperanza.

“In 2022, Nascimento was on his farewell tour, but in 2023, he put his retirement on hold after deciding to collaborate with Spalding on their upcoming album… Songs from that record are featured in this magical (home) concert. Recorded last month in Nascimento’s living room in Rio de Janeiro, it’s likely to be the only video performance of this music,” NPR shared.

“Nascimento is 81 years old now and has difficulty traveling out of Brazil,” they added.

What a magical performance! See the set list below.
