TAPPAN, NY: TONY BENNETT & BILL EVANS: THE LEGENDARY RECORDINGS
The Joel Zelnik Trio, with Grammy nominee vocalist Annette Sanders, will perform "Tony Bennett & Bill Evans - The Legendary Recordings" on Sunday, October 26th at 6:00 pm at THE 76 HOUSE (110 Main Street, Tappan, NY - 845-359-5476). Featured is the collaboration of Bill Evans & Tony Bennett during 1975 and '77, which yielded some of the best recordings in the history of jazz. Few listeners realized that Tony Bennett was as much of a jazz singer as almost anybody; he had already made a handful of albums in a small jazz combo format, but these were far lesser known than his big chart hits. Then, in 1975, he made what would be his supreme statement in the jazz field, the first of two albums with the remarkable pianist Bill Evans. They reprise this remarkable collaboration of American Art Song at its finest, by recapturing the virility and expressiveness in these performances. It is a beautiful surprising repertoire - no Gershwin, no Ellington, no blues. They're mostly songs associated with great female singers: Mabel Mercer and Billie Holiday, as well as Bill Evans' own "Waltz For Debby" with Gene Lees' lyrics. Annette is a Grammy nominee with 5 CDs, has sung with Benny Goodman, Mel Torme, Antonio Carlos Jobim. She was the featured vocalist in Dick Hyman's Jazz Series at the 92nd St. Y, and also performed in The Billy Taylor Jazz Series at Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C. Her distinctive recognizable sound has been heard on thousands of jingles, movie sound tracks, and CD's. There is no cover.
