New York, NY: Next month, we jazz it up with the continuation of our “Scenes through the Cinema Lens" series with the film retrospective Sing Me a Song of Jazz: New Discoverieson Tuesday, April 10 at 7:30PM. The retrospective takes the audience on a musical journey into the past to celebrate some legendary jazz performers. The FREE event will be followed by an informal Q&A session.
Just in the last few years a treasure trove of video has appeared with great performances by jazz singers. Some of this footage takes us back to early cinema and old concerts, but much of it is recent. This program includes memorable footage of Ray Charles, Nina Simone, Jane Monheit, Sarah Vaughan, Tony Bennett, Joe Williams and Anita O'Day.
