Harrington is that relatively rare breed of musical performer, equally adept in opera, musical theatre and more recently Latin jazz/world beat. In her new recording, Light Travels, she explores the riches of popular Latin American, Brazilian, Italian and American classics from the 1930s, 40s and 50s with the subtle blending of diverse musical elements. The result is a virtual tapestry of song gems, unconfined by idiom or country. Joining her on stage is arranger/ producer/ jazz pianist Art Bailey, a wunderkind on the improvised and world scene. Mr. Bailey has skillfully fused a variety of musical genres into a well-woven tapestry which explodes with color and light. There is a $22.50 cover plus a 2-drink minimum.
