SWEET AND LOW DOWN: How Popular Standards Became Jazz Classics
Tue-Wed, Jun 7-8, 7:30pm
The Allen Room
American popular song and jazz are not only interrelated, but are actually two sides of the same coin. In this special concert starring Michael Feinstein and his handpicked featured guest singers, the unique relationship and common roots between these seemingly un-related musical worlds will be revealed. This show will present classic songs from two viewpoints: as they were originally conceived for Broadway, Hollywood, and Tin Pan Alley, and then as they were re-invented by jazz performers to become classics in the jazz repertoire. Songs will include “How High the Moon,” “Body and Soul,” and “I Got Rhythm,” to name a few.
Featuring Michael Feinstein and guest artists TBD
