JALC presents JazzStories—Gretchen Parlato

Vocalist Gretchen Parlato has attracted a growing audience of jazz fans since winning the 2004 Thelonious Monk International Jazz Vocals Competition. 2011’s The Lost and Found, her third album, found her making the transition from interpreter of other writers’ material to a composer in her own right, a process she discussed—along with other topics including working with co-producer Robert Glasper—with JALC’s Ken Drucker at a Listening Party in October of that year at Frederick P. Rose Hall, from which this interview is taken.
