Since the great success of her nationally syndicated radio series “Word & Music," Spider is known as one of the great interpreters of the American Songbook and has thrilled South Bend audiences in her stellar Gershwin concert with The South Bend Symphony Orchestra.
Miss Saloff will perform with area favorite, The Jim Steele Duo. This show will be a perfect tie in to your Valentine experience in the romantic glamour of The Palais Royal for a full evening of fine dining and classic music.
Songs included: IT HAD TO BE YOU , EMBRACEABLE YOU, ISN'T IT ROMANTIC and PRELUDE TO A KISS
“One of the finest jazz singers working in this or any other city," The Chicago Tribune stated emphatically. “A wicked way with a lyric!" exclaimed The New York Times.

A five-time winner of the prestigious MAC Award, including one for Best Female Jazz Vocalist, presented by the Manhattan Association of Cabarets, she also received a special citation for her musical contributions from NARAS (presenter of the Grammy Awards).

WHAT THE CRITICS HAVE SAID:
Rarely have I heard so many musical ideas from one set of pipes with the talent and self assurance to carry them off. Her jazz phrasing is flawless." —Back Stage
“A wicked way with a lyric and a glint of well-controlled mischief." —The New York Times
“Slyly sophisticated, easily accessible, Saloff stands as a kind of ideal." —Chicago Tribune
“Saloff's frenzied scat-singing trip brought the audience to its knees." —Star Ledger
“Her voice takes on a lovely Billy Holiday-like quality. Saloff will win you over completely." —New York Post
WHAT THE CELEBRITIES HAVE SAID:
“Here is a list of qualities that every great singer must have. Great pitch, Time, Clarity, (Diction) and the greatest gift of all instant identifiability—you hear a few notes and immediately know who is singing. This is something that any singer would kill for.
Spider Saloff needn't worry. She has all these qualities and then some!
She's incredibly musical, a great performer, and marvelous songwriter. A perfect example of this is the title track from her latest CD ,"Like Glass" on Kopaesthetics. Just listen. You'll love it!" —Award winning songwriter/arranger, Johnny Mandel
“Right-on intonation and a personal style which can sell a ballad or tantalize with half a chorus of scatting." —Dick Hyman
“Full of life and vitality." —Studs Terkel
So come and have a wonderful romantic evening for two with one of the nation's best jazz vocalists touring today!
