Quincy Jones has spent his lifetime surrounding himself with the best and the brightest, it's not surprising he is attracted to people like Nikki and Emily

Here are the interviews of Jian Ghomeshi for CBC The National
with Nikki Yanofsky and Quincy Jones
In this interview Emily is two times mentioned as they also speak about Quincy Jones work with his young artists.
But before this Jian Ghomeshi interviewed Quincy Jones exclusively

According to a french interview Nikki Yanofsky is able to play the piano but a bad guitar player or a drummer-) Jouez-vous d’un instrument ? Oui ! Je sais jouer du piano. Et… C’est à peu près tout (rire). Je peux bidouiller à la guitare ou à la batterie, mais je suis plutôt mauvaise. Le piano est vraiment mon instrument de prédilection. www.ninapeople.com/exclu-interview-jazz-lady-nikki-yanofsky/131617/Perhaps she and Emily should make a fun video

Thats really.. good...
What an instrument(voice) she has... (Nikki) What could happen (IF) Nikki mentored Emily in singing.. to learn to use her voice(Emily) like a piano...
Emilys voice is sweet and pure.. (Ipanema).. all she needs is the Scat.. the improvisation ability.. to use her voice like a piano like Nikki does..
I see commonalities in Nikki and Emily.. they both use "their" instruments in the same way.. and are at their best with improv... likely the happiest when doing it too..
Just a thought.. Bonus
