Swingingly hot jazz, sultry cool blues ...
About Me
I never tire of the Great American Songbook. It's a vast repertoire,
and because of its improvisational nature, there's a plethora of
interpretations. The complexity of jazz is equal to that in classical
music, and can't be captured in three chords. It can be swinging or
sultry, brassy or quiet. It hits every note. And it's America's gift
to the world.
I echo the mission of the American Songbook Preservation Society: “To
preserve our cultural treasure known as the Great American Songbook by
presenting this music to the public at home and abroad as Ambassadors
of Song ... with the highest musical integrity and interpretation.”
To the best of my ability, I will carry the torch of singers past!

My Jazz Story
I love jazz because because of its complexity, its clever lyrics, its diversity.
